1920 Harcum Way, South Side, PA 15203

Property Description

Finding a property in the Southside that gives you actual living space and privacy can be a challenge. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home sits on a lower-traffic one-way street, keeping you incredibly close to the restaurants and retail on East Carson Street without the constant noise right outside your front door. The main floor features tall ceilings and original flooring, currently protected by foam mats but fully intact underneath. A decorative fireplace with exposed brick anchors the front room, giving you the flexibility to use it as a large dining space or a main living room. In the back, the kitchen provides solid counter space with black Formica, a double-bowl sink, and a gas stove. From the kitchen, step straight out into a private, poured-concrete courtyard. Because it backs up directly to a neighboring building, you get total privacy from the alley behind the house. Upstairs, the two main bedrooms connect through a shared Jack-and-Jill bathroom equipped with a full tub and tile surround. If you work from home, the finished third floor is completely separated from the lower levels. It features angled ceilings, recessed lighting, and dormer storage, making it a quiet office or an extra bedroom. The unfinished basement has a poured concrete floor and a concrete-sealed stone foundation for dry storage. You also get the benefit of a first-floor laundry setup and a second full bathroom with a standup shower on the main level. Major mechanical updates include a new central AC system, replacement vinyl windows, new light fixtures, and a newer water heater.
