Charming 2-Bd House In Historic Philadelphia Neighborhood

Welcome to my home!

Enjoy a peaceful stay at a 2-bedroom house located in an historic part of Philadelphia (guests will have access to the entire home).

The space features a living area, a dedicated dining room, full kitchen, an office suite that connects to the main bedroom, washer/dryer, 1-1/2 bathrooms and two bedrooms with a queen bed and a futon. There's also a back deck for casual entertainment, and a cozy front porch perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the philly food scene and touring the birthplace of America.

Nestled in the quiet but lively Mt. Airy neighborhood of Philadelphia, guests will find the space to be comfortable, convenient and well-equipped, in a thriving community atmosphere just mintues away from the famous Wissahickon Valley Park, Art Galleries, stops along the Underground Railroad, and easy access to other Philadelphia neighborhoods worthy of exploring.

Local grocery stores are within walking distance. Hospitals and pharmacies are also nearby. You can stroll down the cobblestoned streets of Chestnut Hill to shop local small businesses and boutiques, and there's plenty of public transportation also within walking distance from the house to access concert events and other activities downtown (e.g., buses, trains, and car services like Uber and Lyft).

With central air conditioning and heating to combat summer heat and winter cold, this will be your home away from home. I am also local, and will be nearby to accommodate your needs.
