Located in the heart of Germantown, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath row home offers an open-concept layout with solid fundamentals and a smart use of space. The main level features laminate hardwood floors throughout the living and dining areas, leading to a galley-style kitchen with 12x12 ceramic tile flooring, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances—including a matching sink and faucet. Upstairs, all three bedrooms and the hallway are finished with the same laminate flooring for a cohesive look. The bathroom has been updated with tiled floors and a full tile tub surround, adding a modern touch. While the property could use some cosmetic updates, it presents a great opportunity for an investor or homeowner looking to build equity in a well-located section of Philadelphia.
