** 2606 E Madison Street was just vacated and is available for you to see. The pictures here are how the house looks right now! ** ** Cat or small / non-dangerous breed dog OK. ** The expanding development north from center city has led to fantastic new restaurants and hip businesses on E Girard Avenue and Frankford Avenue in Fishtown and Olde Kensington. It's also led to higher monthly rents, in some cases on blocks where properties are in poor condition. So take a look at Port Richmond! Just adjacent to and within 5 minutes of the best restaurants and shopping available in Fishtown, Port Richmond has been a stable & solid Philly 'hood over the long term. "Colonized" by Polish immigrants since the '40s and '50s, PR is particularly rich in ethnic eateries, food producers, markets and bakeries. The heart of Port Richmond is Allegheny Avenue. Driving on I95, you can look west and see the spires of churches that line the Avenue. And at the core of it all is Campbell Square, fka Allegheny Square. This is a beautiful, community-maintained large square and small park that's great for access to trees & green space. This property includes: - 2 bedrooms, 1 good-sized & 1 that's small. Both rooms have closets and hardwood bamboo floors. - 1 1/2 bathrooms. There's a full bathroom on the 2nd floor and a powder room on the first. - CENTRAL A/C. - EURO-STYLE KITCHEN, including frosted glass cabinet drawers and other fancy upgrades. Appliances include: Gas stove, dishwasher, full-size refrigerator and above-stove microwave. - CHERRY WOOD plank tiling covers the ENTIRE first floor (excluding the powder room), from the front door, through the dining room and kitchen to the back door. - The basement is unfinished and includes your own washing machine and gas dryer. - Because the living space of the house was expanded over the years to cover almost the entire building lot, there's not much of a back yard.
