Welcome to 857 Perkiomen St, an oversized sanctuary in the heart of booming Francisville. This 17 foot wide home sits on an oversized lot and offers the best of both worlds in this renovation and addition. New construction size and quality combined with the character, texture, and history of a renovation. The transitional open floor plan is evidenced by the large first floor living and dining room that leads back to a classic style kitchen with shaker cabinets, marble countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Attention to detail is shown in the European style hickory wide plank floors, exposed brick, and designer plumbing and lighting fixtures. Beyond the kitchen sliding doors, the home opens to a uniquely large rear private yard with privacy fence and built-in seating area. The unusually large rear yard offers maximal privacy and flexibility for your living needs. On the Second floor two bedrooms with ample natural light and storage share a large full bathroom. Please note shower glass in second floor bathroom and master bathroom will be installed prior to closing. Specific attention to detail is shown in the exposed original ceiling joists in the bedroom. A large walk-in laundry room is on the second floor. The third floor master suite offers an expansive owners retreat, complete with a large bedroom area, sizable walk-in closet area, luxury bathroom, and an additional room with wet-bar perfect for a nursery, bedroom, den or home office. The master bathroom features luxury marble tile, a ceiling mount rain head, and luxury free standing tub. Please note the mini-fridge for the wet bar will be installed prior to closing. When the owners want to get some additional outdoor relaxation, head up to the roof deck to catch a stunning view of the downtown Philadelphia skyline. Downstairs in the basement, is a fully finished space perfect for an entertainment area or home gym. Please note the basement floors will be polished prior to closing. When the owners want to leave their sanctuary to explore the city, 857 Perkiomen is a close and tranquil walk to the restaurants, bars, and retail of Fairmount and Ridge Avenues. With easy access to Fairmount and downtown, please see why Francisville is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Philadelphia to call home. Please note that 859 Perkiomen is also for sale and is the same floor plan, but uniquely designed with more modern finishes and fittings. Forget cookie cutter new construction, and look no further than your sanctuary on Perkiomen to find your one of a kind home. Please note that tax abatements have been applied for and are pending.
