About this home
it's time to welcome the new kid in town! Drexel Park Gardens has a new home for sale on one of the nicest streets in The Gardens! Just one house away from the corner, on a one way street, this place has curb appeal galore, especially due to the new wooden fencing (2025) that surrounds the front yard, which comes complete with a few shrubs... like a dwarf maple and other greenery, as well as a mini retaining wall at the sidewalk. Right about now starts perfect weather for sitting on the front patio to check out what is going on in the neighborhood, or just relax after dinner. Since the nights are only going to get longer through Spring and Summer, it's a great way to meet the neighbors! Some terrific features of this townrow are the Central Air system which, along with the gas heater, were just checked on 4/26, hardwood floors throughout, a lower level powder room, an open first floor plan, including a feature that only a few of these Warner-West rows have...an open wall to the steps going to the finished lower level, with spindles to match the ones that go to the 2nd floor, and a newer, front bay window to let in all the natural light . The front entry is trimmed in stone,---a nice contrast to the brick. A full view storm door and steel entry door with a floral oval window leads to the living room, the open DR and the upgraded kitchen with quartz counter tops, white subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances,(including a side-by-side fridge, a lazy susan. a spice organizer, a DW and a gas stove with a classy vent hood like you see in the new homes. There's lots of storage in this kitchen. It was well-planned! The inlaid kitchen sink is also stainless with a gooseneck faucet. There's a special shelf just for the microwave! The vinyl floor is brand new 4/26! A sliding glass door opens from the dining room to a full-size deck. Some boards have been replaced. (The new owner can choose their own stain color after they move in ). The view is nice from here because of the location of the house. It feels more open. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms--all with ceiling fans, and a full bath decorated in Tiffany blue, that shows off a new higher vanity sink with wide/deep drawers and a Bathfitter tub /shower. The enclosure has a tile-look surface, and there are 6 shelves for the bath supplies. There's a white medicine cabinet over the toilet to match the mirror. Very nice full bath! All the bedrooms are painted in a neutral color. The hardwoods are showing all through the 2nd floor.
There is a finished room in the lower level , with neutral carpeting, that boasts a bar and an open ceiling like you would see in homes and apartments in Downtown Philly. The reno was extended into the garage area, so there is more rec room space. There is a portion of the garage that was saved for storage and the laundry area. The washer and dryer are included in the sale, as is a standing mini fridge. The electric is 100 amp. The steel exit door leads to the driveway under the deck that can house one car... and then some.. Grey siding has replaced the garage door.. The windows throughout the house are all capped. The water heater is a Bradford White. The powder room shows off a vanity sink. Convenience is key! Walk to shopping... the Acme, the Dollar Store, banks, the Dairy Queen , Perkins and so many places to pick up a pizza or a sandwich! The bus stop is at the top of the street, and the elementary, middle and high schools are all within walking distance. It is quite easy to get to Center City for work and for visits to doctors at the big hospitals . The trolley line takes you to Media. Spend and evening at Dining Under the Stars then hop on the trolley to get home without worrying about parking! The seller is offering a FREE ONE YEAR APHW HOME WARRANTY to the lucky new owners! it's a BIG perk! So find you 'happy place' here. It's the "Affordable Dream"! #854 Gainsboro is all good things wrapped up in one lovely home!...
