Regent Square, PA 15221

Property Description

On a quiet Regent Square block sit a collection of charming Arts and Crafts style row homes. 620 Hampton St. is one of these. It is a spacious two bedroom, one bathroom home with many original 1920’s Craftsman-style details still in place. You notice this first at the front porch where the wooden front door with stained glass window greets you and beckons you home. Once in the living room, your eye will be drawn to original built-in that flanks the decorative fireplace. This beautiful piece anchors a spacious living room (16x13) that also features the original woodwork in its deep, rich original stain. In the dining room there are two additional corner built-ins. This room gets excellent natural light with two windows with Southern exposure. The carpet in the living and dining room was deep-cleaned prior to the home going on the market. There are hardwood floors under the carpet—you get a great look at these on the second floor. The kitchen was recently updated (2012) with stainless steel appliances, garbage disposal, oversized cabinetry and new floor. There is ample counter top space. The basement is voluminous with tall ceiling height and good natural light. This space provides excellent storage with built-in closets, and is a versatile space that can be used for any of your additional needs—exercise room, hobby room, office—it walks out to the level fenced back yard. Opposite the backyard is the one car garage. In the basement you will also find the high efficiency furnace that was installed in 2012. On the second floor landing there is another great, original built-in. Off the landing are two ample sized bedrooms with abundant closet space. The master bedroom has hardwood floors under the large area rug, in the original rich stain. The master bedroom sits in the front of the home with two large windows. The room is large with great proportions and original woodwork. The second bedroom is also of a generous size, with hardwood floors under the rug. It faces the rear of the home. The bathroom features the original 1920’s pink subway tile, white bead board ceiling and the original hexagonal white ceramic tile flooring. The location is outstanding, as the home is less than a block from one the main bus routes East of the city. You are walking distance to the neighborhood favorite Biddle’s Escape café, the Regent Square Theater—and all the attractions on S. Braddock Ave.—and the magnificent Frick Park.
