Property Description
Prepare to be impressed by this meticulously restored corner home, where classic elegance meets contemporary comfort. From the moment you approach the beautifully renovated front façade, featuring intricate brickwork and a custom-made front door, you'll know you're in for a treat.
Over the past 10 years, this home has been carefully brought back to its original grandeur while seamlessly integrating 21st-century amenities. The attention to detail is evident throughout, with preserved original features such as crown moldings, charming niches, and stunning rounded doors and arches. The wainscoting and the banister, complete with its spindles, have been lovingly stripped down to reveal the natural wood.
As you enter, you're greeted by a gorgeous vestibule that opens into a first floor designed for effortless flow. The bright and airy living and dining spaces boast warm hardwood floors, a decorative mantel, crown molding, and soaring ceilings. Toward the back of the house, the kitchen features custom-built cabinets with Danby marble countertops and an oversized window that overlooks the large private backyard. The backyard opens up to N. Stillman Street, providing convenient access for trash removal and bike storage without having to go through the house. A convenient powder room is discreetly tucked away off the hallway on this floor.
Upstairs, the charm continues with a rounded doorway and matching rounded door with two glazed panels that lead to the spacious back bedroom. A full bathroom, complete with its original tub, is located between the back and middle bedrooms. The front bedroom features a grand niche above an antique wash basin base.
The large, unfinished BASEMENT HAS HIGH CEILINGS and presents an excellent opportunity for future finishing. The home also includes air conditioning and recessed lighting, thoughtfully integrated throughout.
Nestled on a picturesque tree-lined street in a vibrant neighborhood, this home offers an abundance of green spaces and easy access to some of Philadelphia's finest attractions. Enjoy leisurely strolls to nearby dining and shopping options, explore the history of Eastern State Penitentiary, or exercise along The Schuylkill River Bank. Boathouse Row, Fairmount Park, and The Philadelphia Museum of Art are also close by, providing excellent spots for picnicking, exploring, or simply enjoying quality time. Plus, you'll appreciate the convenient accessibility of Kelly Drive and I-76.
