About 2557 E Lehigh Ave

Lovely Olde Richmond rowhome on a lively yet oh-so-quaint corner of Lehigh Avenue. A classic vestibule welcomes you to this cozy home. Our favorite flair of character is the unique vaulted ceiling in the combined living and dining areas. You'll admire the cabinet and counter space of the kitchen which is large enough to add a small table for cozy breakfast dining. A finished basement with 74 inches of headroom boasts brand new carpeting and a separate laundry and mechanicals room with plenty of dry storage. Out back at 180sf, the patio has tremendous potential for gardening and grilling. The second floor features a functional laundry chute and carpeting in excellent condition. Very large primary bedroom features a vintage transom window and closet with over-head storage. Smallest bedroom with built-in cabinet and shelves is ideal office or nursery. The full bathroom is updated with subway tile and classy Toto sink Made in the USA. Nearby treasures abound in Port Richmond and Fishtown. Right across the street from a cold brew and flakey glazed cherry hand pie at Little Susie's Coffee shop and a lager and pickle-brined fried chicken at Green Rock Tavern. Super convenient access to I-95. We can't wait for you to see this home.
