Welcome to this Terrific Urban, brick, semi-detached home. This updated 2 Bedroom/2 Bath Gem is so close to King Street with EZ access to Braddock & King Street Metros and the MarcTrains. Along the lighted path, enjoy taking your fury friend(s) for a leisurely walk before retreating to your fully fenced back & front yards, porch and DECK! 1604 Princess has been updated since owners (Realtor) purchased it in Dec. 2018! Both bathrooms have been updated. In 2023, the upstairs bath was totally gutted and remodeled , which included new ceramic tile, bathtub, vanity and lighting as well as a new glass brick window that can open. The Lower Level bathroom has a new vanity. The improvements also include installation of a 6 ft pressure treated wood fence around the back yard and a white vinyl fence in the front yard to give it charm, security and convenience. Let's not forget the gorgeous deck that provides plenty of space for outdoor seating for all your entertaining! Additionally, over the past several years, the Owners have improved the plantings & beds, as well as adding pavers for additional entertaining space . At the same time, Owners poured a concrete extension to the existing parking pad that offers an extra off street parking space! In a location so close to shops and restaurants as this is, that is a true Bonus! This home boasts a Newly Painted large recreational space in the lower level with manufactured hardwood flooring and a full bathroom with shower. The main level flooring is also manufactured hardwood (installed in 2019) and the stairs & 2nd level has solid oak hardwood floors, which were just refinished. Owners also built a good-sized closet in the primary bedroom and installed California Closet Systems in Primary and Secondary bedrooms. There is a tremendous amount of storage in this lovely unit, which includes storage in a secondary room off the basement and more storage possibilities under the deck! The exterior also got a facelift! Just finished is the repair to the porch columns and both the porch and the back addition have been painted. The HVAC system was replaced in January 2019 and has received maintenance per a yearly service agreement since then. All the appliances are stainless steel and the garbage disposal was replaced in 2024. Although all the appliances work well, the Owners are offering a One Year Home Warranty for additional peace of mind! Move in and enjoy a great summer of city living! Join the community pool just behind the property and get ready to bbque! This is a great find! Expected on Market 4/7/25
