Offers Due Monday. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the highly sought-after Fairmount, Art Museum section of the city, this stunning home offers the perfect mix of historic charm and modern updates. Located within the sought-after Bache-Martin catchment area, the home boasts incredible curb appeal with its classic brick facade, brand-new custom red front door, and marble-tiled vestibule, complete with a gorgeous transom window and functional shoe storage. Inside, natural light pours into the spacious living areas through wide windows and doors, illuminating the soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and beautifully restored parquet floors. The ornate pocket doors and crown molding add a touch of elegance, while the curved paster adds character and interest to the living and dining rooms, perfect for relaxation or entertaining. The large, eat-in kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring polished granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry. A stylish half bath adds convenience on the main floor. Outside, the private, brick-paved backyard, complete with raised planting beds and lush greenery, creates an ideal oasis for outdoor gatherings or quiet retreats. Upstairs, three sunny bedrooms continue the home’s refined aesthetic, with hardwood floors and thoughtful details in each room. The back bedroom is drenched in sunlight with two exposures, the middle bedroom offers generous closet space, and the front bedroom boasts a charming built-in wardrobe. The full bath has been beautifully renovated and includes a deep soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. The clean, unfinished basement offers 400 square feet of potential, along with laundry, extra storage, and updated mechanicals including a tankless water heater. The sellers removed the knob-and-tube and upgraded the electric for added peace of mind and added solar panels to offset their energy cost and carbon footprint. Situated on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood (15.25 feet wide and 63.25 feet deep!), this home is on a truly special block known for its close-knit, active community. Neighbors maintain beautiful market lights and host annual block parties, fostering a welcoming atmosphere. Just a short walk away, you’ll find Fairmount’s top attractions, including bistros, gourmet food shops, cafes, fine dining, and lively pubs along Fairmount Avenue. Plus, you’re only minutes from the Art Museum, the Ben Franklin Parkway, The Barnes, The Rodin, Kelly Drive, Eakins Oval, and more. This Fairmount gem is ready to be your next home—don’t miss your chance to live in one of Philadelphia’s most vibrant neighborhoods!
