The space
Built in the early 1800s, this stone-front trinity is close to bustling Main Street in Manayunk. A trinity is unique to Philadelphia but means a three-story house with a room on each floor.
**Please make sure you are comfortable negotiating winding stairways.**
The house is cozy and perfect for a single person or one or two couples.
The house is small in scale but is outfitted with everything you need.
The first floor includes a kitchen, living room, and dining area. Stairs to the basement lead to the washer and dryer. A small patio with chairs is located in the back.
The second floor has a bedroom with a closet and a full bath. The hall closet is a supply closet and is locked.
The third floor has a bedroom with a full-sized bed.
Don't hesitate to get in touch with Heather about bringing your pet.
