What This Townhouse Offers

Across from Columbus Square park, discover this enormous South Philly hidden gem. Your standard South Philly Life complaints do not apply here: Parking? Two... sides of street parking open for the taking, with homes only on one side! Space? Three stories (plus basement) and over 1800 square feet of homeyness (on a 16-foot-wide lot, no less!), ready for you to make your own. Nestled between Coppin Elementary, the Broad Street Line, and the restaurants and amenities of Passyunk Square, what's not to love?
