About this home

Step into a rare piece of Society Hill history—an expanded, historically certified trinity planned and built in the Georgian era (c. 1809–10) during the presidencies of Jefferson and Madison. Tucked on a quiet, centrally located block, this home blends centuries-old character with thoughtful modern comforts, offering an ideal retreat for those who value charm, walkability, and effortless city living. Original wood floors, multiple fireplaces, and exposed brick bring warmth and authenticity throughout the home. The street-level entry opens into a welcoming living room centered around a brick fireplace, paired with a convenient half bath. A dramatic two-story window wall brings in natural light and creates a serene indoor garden/conversation area—perfect for morning coffee or evening wind-downs. From here, step out to a private brick patio with new fencing and a five-foot-deep Canadian Cedar hot tub under a privacy-screened gazebo, plus space for grilling or gardening—your own quiet
