1940 REED ST, PHILADELPHIA, PA 19146

When the perfect layout meets charm, the result is 1940 Reed St. From the wide living room to the large backyard, high ceiling basement, generous bedrooms, and two full bathrooms, this home has the right components and flow. Add on top of this perfect layout, an exposed brick wall, hardwood floorings throughout, distinct shelving, and tastefully chosen colors and touches, you get a charm that inspires you every day. Instead of having a powder room “in the kitchen” as some Philly homes do, this thoughtfully designed home has a full bathroom in the finished basement, just steps away from the main floor living area. The basement offers multiple opportunities for extra living space, TV area, office, or exercising, all with the second full bathroom right there for completeness. The massive backyard that this special home offers includes a raised flower/vegetable planting bed, and another section intentionally not cemented for planting purposes. Note that many houses on this block have added a third floor and rooftop deck giving them access to a stunning Philly skyline view from the best direction (center city facing), and at the best location (19th block). This view can be partially seen from the second floor’s front bedroom’s window. Needless to say, this home does not share the left-hand side wall with any next-door house, adding another level of privacy. If outdoor backyard living, charm, wide and open layout, and extra usable basement space is what you seek, this home has it all for you.
