The fabulous neighborhood of Fairmount is known for its proximity to the Parkway and its world-renowned cultural institutions, easy access to the Schuylkill River Trail, all the recreation Fairmount Park has to offer, and a lively shopping and restaurant scene. Be welcomed home by the trees lining this handsome block of historic brick homes, uniquely ornamented with ceramic and decorative masonry details. Arriving at the entry of your first floor, be welcomed into a modern open floor plan with gleaming hardwood floors and oversized windows bathing the living area in natural light. In fact, if you’re looking to be bathed in glorious natural light, you’ve come to the right place. The morning light streams in from the east through oversized windows in every room and even the hallways. Counting an amazing bay window in the 2nd-floor bedroom, there are 22 total windows in this home. Continue past the formal dining room into a fabulous stainless and stone chef's kitchen with a fun breakfast bar that adds to the surplus of linear counter space, creating a perfect setup for entertaining guests while you showcase your culinary skills preparing a gourmet meal. Past the kitchen, there's an adorable powder room, laundry, and butler’s pantry for more than just added convenience. Beyond that, soak up the rays or dine alfresco on your own private paved patio, perfect for entertaining, grilling, and chilling. Downstairs, you will find an enormous unfinished basement providing a proverbial ton of storage and one of the two HVAC systems. Dual-zoned heat and air are the only way to go in a home this size. Up the charming original staircase, on the 2nd floor, find 2 of 3 bedrooms and a landing, naturally lit by another oversized window, currently set up as a home office that could otherwise be utilized as a cozy family room, home gym, meditation area, or den. Every bedroom in this home is spacious, outfitted with oversized closets, and custom blinds with top-down/bottom up capability and/or black out shades. A chic hall bathroom features plenty of space for multiple occupants with its double sink, fancy tiled niche, and serviced by a hall closet that also houses the 2nd HVAC. One more flight up the original staircase, pass a sunny alcove perfect for plants, to discover the expansive sunbathed, 3rd-floor primary suite topping this lovely home off with high ceilings, lots of closet space, and a luxurious spa-like master bath with double sinks, soaking tub, natural stone tile, and glass shower enclosure. This distinct and elegant home, nestled in a rich historical context, has it all and is bound to suit your lifestyle. Ditch your car! You’ll be walking only minutes to Whole Foods Market, The Barnes Museum, The Philadelphia Art Museum, or Kelly Drive. Even closer than that, there’s a fantastic Italian restaurant across the street and multiple coffee shops nearby, as well as a bar offering pub grub and a fenced in park for you and your pupperdoos (don’t just drop in, dogs and their vaccination records must be pre-registered, also 21+ only). Location, Location, Location AND partial tax abatement good through 2030.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
