About this home
A rare residence in the heart of Fairmount, this beautifully preserved 125-year-old home blends historic craftsmanship with modern luxury and smart-home technology.
Original details welcome you from the moment you enter, including slate wainscoting, stained glass, and a stunning historic staircase. Soaring ceilings and abundant natural light highlight the elegant living and dining spaces, which flow seamlessly into a chef’s kitchen featuring Carrera marble countertops, Italian porcelain flooring, and professional-grade appliances including a high-BTU gas range and powerful vent hood. Hidden Polk Audio speakers in the island make the space perfect for entertaining.
Just beyond the kitchen is a pantry and powder room with access to a peaceful herb garden patio. The private rear alley allows natural light on three sides of the home and offers additional exterior storage.
Upstairs, 2 spacious bedrooms plus a flexible living area provide options for guest rooms, office space, or a family lounge. The entire third floor is dedicated to a tranquil primary suite with soaring ceilings, expansive closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring natural stone floors, a double vanity, and an oversized shower with rain and handheld fixtures. A doorway off the suite offers the potential to create a rooftop deck with city views.
Additional highlights include a finished basement, whole-home CAT5e wiring with gigabit internet capability, intercom system, ADT security, and an energy-efficient tankless water heater.
Situated on a quiet, friendly block just steps from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Fairmount Park, neighborhood cafés, acclaimed restaurants, and public transit, this home offers timeless character with the comfort and technology of modern city living....
