2446 S OPAL ST Philadelphia, PA 19145

Located on a lovely block in the Girard Estates section of South Philly, this gorgeous 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home was lovingly re-imagined by its architect owner for maximum style and comfort. The exterior boasts a beautiful cherry tree and the original historic 1920's brick facade with restored front door, a large window planter box, a small railing planter box, and historic basement window grates. Upon entering the home you'll notice the first floor is airy and open, filled with natural light highlighting the pre-finished red oak wood floors with matching custom flush solid oak wood floor registers. Continue through past the windowed half bath and into the open kitchen complete with granite counter tops, white shaker-style cabinets, subway tile back-splash, built-in stainless steel appliances, large pantry cabinets, a granite prep counter with cabinet storage, under cabinet lighting, and deep tiled window sills. Through the restored original rear door is the private patio - perfect for container plants and barbecuing - with alley access to Porter Street. The second floor is home to three bedrooms and a spa-like full bathroom boasting a white enamel cast iron tub, marble mosaic wall and floor tiling, a silled window, and a recessed frame-less medicine cabinet. The front master bedroom is highlighted by 11 ft cathedral ceilings with continuous transom windows, deep sill carriage style windows, two full closets, and an upholstered bench seat with storage. The middle bedroom includes an upholstered bench seat with storage; the rear bedroom has two large windows, plus you'll find a deep-shelved linen closet in the hallway. More living space can be found in the fully finished basement with cleverly hidden storage underneath the staircase. There's also a wonderfully designed utility room with full-sized washer and dryer, a folding counter with base cabinets, a laundry sink, and combination heat, vent, light, and nightlight. This beautiful home is located in a great walkable neighborhood close to Girard Park, the Public Library, a large Acme grocery store, the beloved Kay Kay's bakery around the corner, Tap Room on 19th, GAMP and Saint Monica s schools, and a highly-recommended daycare. You'll also be close to Oregon Ave, West Passyunk Ave, easy access to Broad Street, I-76 and I-95.
