Philadelphia, PA 19130

An absolutely chic 16’-wide townhouse on a pretty tree-lined street in popular Fairmount, this home exquisitely balances beautiful historic architectural details with modern amenities. This 2-story home boasts a beautiful brick façade with large high-end Andersen windows. Enter the welcoming pattern-tiled vestibule with a leaded-glass door, opening to an expansive and high-ceilinged living room, flooded with natural light, restored Schuylkill pine floors, and custom millwork throughout. A large dining room can easily accommodate large groups for entertaining and leads to a spacious kitchen with a thoughtful layout. At the rear of the house, a convenient mud-room houses a full-size stacked washer and dryer and opens to a sweet patio garden with fantastic sun exposure throughout the day. An elegant staircase, with original pine details, leads to the sun-splashed second floor, with soaring ceilings and wonderful proportions. Three lovely bedrooms, including a large Master with a floor-to-ceiling custom closet, share a newly renovated and enlarged hall bath, outfitted in high-quality finishes from Porcelanosa and Garden State Tile. The clean, dry basement is huge and provides tons of storage. Aside from the obvious cosmetics and attention to detail, this sophisticated property has had so many updates to important components like electric, roofing, lighting, hardware, and plumbing, including a “Y” connection at the new plumbing stack for a future powder room on the first floor. This townhouse has been so meticulously well-maintained, that it will be a pleasure for its new owners to call home. An A-plus offering and not to be missed.
