It took me three years to find these owners a new house. Why so long? Because it's hard to upgrade when you're already in the 98th percentile of homes in University City. It's got Big Wow features that separate it from the ordinary. The architectural detail is stunning, and it's intact. Leaded glass, pocket doors. parquet floors; check, check, check. It's got yard. It's got parking. It's got a second floor front parlor to die for. Lest I forget, this property is zoned as a two family, and the third floor has a separate private entrance. Should you decide to rent out the third floor, you might be able to knock a couple grand off your mortgage payment. Right across the street is Blue Ribbon award winning Penn Alexander elementary school, and yes it's in the catchment area. Take a look at the photos, then come take a look in person. Prepare to be blown away.
