SHELLY TORBERT

Description

Welcome to 1330 S 16th Street, a stunning three-story home with a classic brick front, an unbelievable outdoor oasis, and tax abatement in prime South Philly! Located in Newbold and fully renovated just a few years ago, this stately 3 bed, 2 bath beauty offers a breath of fresh air with its combined charm and unique features. Enter into the main living room and you’ll immediately feel at home in the space thanks to large windows with custom shutters, warm red oak flooring, and exposed brick wall. The fully updated, modern kitchen features an island with seating, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, pantry, and ample cabinet space for storage. Beyond the kitchen is a separate dining area, with plenty of space for a large dining table and direct access to the property's crowning feature, the expansive rear patio and yard(!). Enjoy all seasons both day and night (complete with bistro lights) on the large concrete patio covered by a custom-built cedar awning complete with 2 skylights, a ceiling fan, and a built-in sunshade. A rare find for the city, the backyard is fully enclosed by a custom privacy fence and features a lush green lawn and a beautiful, flowering variegated willow tree. As an added bonus, the home comes with the full patio furniture set, grill, and all the tools necessary to maintain the beautiful yard. Heading back inside and up to the 2nd level, you will find a large front bedroom with a walk-in closet and great light. The hall provides access to your conveniently located upper floor washer and dryer as well as a full bath complete with a custom vanity and tub/shower combo. The rear bedroom (suitable for a home office) gets plenty of light and also has custom closet organization. The third level contains the primary suite, a spacious retreat featuring a large bedroom, closet, and ceiling fan. The spa-like bathroom offers a deep, free-standing soaking tub, a beautiful glass/marble shower, and double vanity. As an added bonus, the bathroom has a door to the roof, offering the potential for adding a deck to take advantage of the breathtaking skyline views. Downstairs, you will find a clean, full basement that offers ample storage and potential for an additional “hang out” area. Meticulously maintained, improvements include new storm door, custom closets and blinds throughout, privacy fencing, a recently repainted interior, and much more! Located in the Newbold section of Point Breeze, this ideal location is uniquely placed, offering access to neighborhood amenities like Batter & Crumbs, Sardine Bar, and a state of the art Giant Supermarket, Sprouts, and Target all within walking distance. It is a quick walk to Graduate Hospital and Rittenhouse Square to the north and East Passyunk to the east. Commuting is a breeze with the Broad Street Line right there and multiple bus lines. Property still under tax abatement for an additional 7 years!
