*MOTIVATED SELLER* Welcome to 253 S. Saint Bernard St: a generously sized 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home with PARKING in the Walnut Hill section of University City in West Philly. Perfect for the first time homeowner's chance to own their dream home or an investor looking for consistent university or resident housing. Right off the bat, you’ll notice several repairs the seller has made to bring this beauty to tip top shape! The cracked front steps have been replaced with shiny new concrete leading you right inside where you’ll enjoy the afternoon sun in the west facing enclosed porch. The entire home has been completely repainted from top to bottom. The traditional layout includes a spacious living room that is outfitted with a brand new powder room in the living room, followed by a dining room with a large wall mounted mirror in between the coat closet and access to the basement. The kitchen includes a refrigerator, dishwasher, oven and brand new microwave. Behind the kitchen is bonus storage space that could be used for a pantry or even main floor laundry - sky’s the limit!!! Continue out the back door where there is a small deck and staircase leading down the driveway and garage. You can easily fit a car in the garage and a car (or two!) in the driveway!! The second floor includes fresh, brand new carpeting throughout and a large hall closet. Underneath the carpet are original hardwood floors, should you choose to refinish them. The bedrooms are generously sized with equally generous closets. The full bathroom is beautifully illuminated by the sky light and highlights the brand new vanity, bath tub/shower combo and large linen closet.
You’ll be close to so many green spaces; less than a mile to Clark Park, less than a quarter mile to Malcolm X Park and Cedar Park, and right across the street from Ben Barkan Park. Close to University City, Baltimore Ave, Mariposa Co-Op, endless dining options and more!! Walk score of 91, transit score of 76 and bike score of 99!!
