Welcome to 148 E Essex Ave —Amazing outdoor spaces! Huge deck and porch! A charming Lansdowne gem that feels like home from the moment you arrive! This delightful 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath beauty effortlessly blends classic warmth with modern updates, making it the perfect place to create memories and live your best life.
Step inside to gleaming hardwood floors with lots of natural and recessed lighting. Living/family room large enough for family gatherings. The dining room has enough space for a 6-8 seat dining table. The heart of the home is the kitchen — complete with a spacious island that flows seamlessly into the dining room, making it a natural gathering spot for family dinners, weekend brunches, or just sharing stories over a cup of coffee. Of course are stainless steel appliances!
But wait until you see the showstopper: a huge raised deck right off the kitchen! Imagine summer barbecues, morning yoga sessions, or stargazing nights with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and unwind.
Need extra room? The finished basement with half bath is your ultimate blank canvas — whether you dream of a cozy office, a playroom buzzing with laughter, a “man cave” for game nights, or an entertainment room to wow your friends, it’s ready to adapt to your lifestyle.
The main hall bath sparkles with a full renovation — brand new vanity, modern gold fixtures, and a brand new tub that invites you to soak your cares away.
Enjoy mornings or evenings on the covered front porch, soaking in the peaceful neighborhood vibes, while knowing you’re just minutes from Philadelphia and convenient public transit. This location truly combines small-town charm with big-city accessibility.
If you’re looking for a home with character, space, and a backyard deck that dreams are made of — look no further. 148 E Essex Ave is waiting to welcome you home.
