311 CARSON ST
PHILADELPHIA, PA 19128

This utterly charming Manayunk rowhome is small but mighty and has a downright dreamy outdoor space that just might make you forget you’re in the city. A funky solid-wood front door with an extra-deep granite threshold kicks off the vintage vibe that continues via recently refinished original wide-plank pine floors that run throughout the house, beginning with the sweet living room with high ceilings and western exposure. Next there’s a large dining room with access to the generous-for-trinity-style staircase and a passthrough to the kitchen. This ceramic-tiled workspace offers ample storage via painted solid wood cabinets and has a window overlooking a stone bluff. Upstairs the large primary bedroom has a generous closet, chair rail and two windows with curved plaster and extra-deep sills. The serenity of the color palette is matched by more views of the stone bluff and expanse of greenery outside. A smaller front bedroom shares the curved plaster and deep-set windows. The hall bath has a double-width medicine cabinet, storage vanity, Kohler toilet, full-wall ceramic tub surround and dual rainhead shower faucet. In the basement there’s a handsome new half bath off the laundry room and access to the deep rear garden with mature landscaping and covered patio, which is an absolute urban oasis. This sweet block of Carson is a small, car-free street just three blocks from Main Street shopping, dining and train to Center City.
