Hack job. Good luck getting a couch into the first floor, terrible kitchen layout with cheap tiles. standard signs of a quick flip
Man.. talk about bad feng shui on the kitchen buildout. House seems to have a decent potential but the remodel is pretty brutal. For $350k you could get yourself a mansion on the other side of Snyder.
What the heck happened with the upper cabinets in the kitchen? Bad planning left that gap above the refrigerator. And they’re ugly cabinets too. The master bath is horrible. Lowes must have been running a sale on pedestal sinks. Plus there’s no back yard.
Pretty clear sign of recycled cabinets
Not sure why it would be a problem getting a couch into the first floor? As for a “mansion below Snyder”, well…. for starters, you’d be BELOW Snyder.
Otherwise, yeah, it looks like a Lowe’s close-out flip. For a $150K less, you could pick up a “grandma house’ right off East Passyunk and do it right.
I lived in a house in college with the same style vestibule, and our couch spent 3 years on the porch. it’s too tight of a space to stand the couch and turn it through the door frame without the feet destroying the wall or not being able to make the turn.

That is a hot mess in every single way. I mean I’m astounded that this is even being featured let alone priced at $350k…it blows my mind. I suspect it’ll end up sitting on the market before being a rental. Who doesn’t want to live between a bodega and “travel and service center”. Ugh.
