Welcome to 957 N Lawrence Street, located on a beautiful, tree-lined street in Northern Liberties. This 19th-century home offers historic character and charm with a modern floor plan and thoughtful updates, plus a desirable backyard and finished basement. On the first floor, you’ll find an open living space with hardwood floors, exposed wooden beams, a fireplace, exposed brick walls, and a large, recently renovated kitchen. The kitchen features white shaker cabinets with plenty of storage, custom quartz countertops, a farmhouse-style sink, a subway tile backsplash, and a large island for food prep and seating. The kitchen opens to a large, 18' wide outdoor space offering lots of room for gathering, grilling, and play. The professionally landscaped space features artificial turf and wood-decked areas, cement planters, a storage shed, and a wooden privacy fence backed by a wall of bamboo. Plus, with a custom-built wooden trash receptacle at the front of the house, your backyard oasis can remain clean and tidy. Back inside, the stunning book-matched staircase leading to the second floor is a focal point. On the second floor, you’ll find two well-proportioned bedrooms, one with built-in closet cabinetry and the other with a custom-built desk. Both rooms feature hardwood floors and exposed brick walls. The bedrooms are adjacent to a hall bath with a tub/shower combination and a large vanity. Follow the half-turn spiral staircase to the third floor, where you will discover a large owner's suite featuring a gabled ceiling with exposed beams, an exposed brick wall, hardwood floors, an office area, a large walk-in closet with custom cabinetry, and a light-filled ensuite bathroom with a double vanity, tile shower with a frameless glass door, a linen closet, and a skylight overhead. The finished basement includes a washer, newer dryer, wine refrigerator, and additional space for an office, playroom, or storage. This well-designed, well-maintained home also includes a rental parking space off the street directly behind the house, prepaid for one year.
