Property Description

This is a truly unique opportunity to own an exceptional, character-rich home in the sought-after Art Museum neighborhood. Boasting 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and approximately 3,900 square feet of living space, this residence (which is zoned RM1) has the potential to be a multi-family property; or add a rental unit; or have a large office with a residence above! It can be customized to your own taste as it combines original architectural charm with modern conveniences — including a 2-car Garage plus a driveway which accommodates 3 cars for rare, off-street parking! The foyer welcomes you with an original ceramic tile vestibule, charming tin ceilings, classic wainscoting, and original wood floors, all anchored by a stunning staircase. The foyer entry leads to a huge office or flex space with its own private entry showcasing soaring ceiling height, original moldings, and side-facing windows that flood the room with natural light. An adjoining room includes an old-fashioned fireplace plus a half bath, making it ideal for many functions such as a private office, creative studio or additional lounge area. On the second floor, you’ll find a grand living space showcasing the original pine floors, high tin ceilings, and a large copper bay window that opens to an expansive deck —perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or urban gardening. The kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar, seamlessly connects to this space. One generously sized bedroom and a bathroom complete this floor. The third level offers a spacious sun-soaked corner bedroom with a walk-in closet, a large hall bath with a classic clawfoot tub, a middle bedroom (currently used as a laundry room), and a spacious front bedroom, all showcasing the home’s timeless charm and functionality. Additional features include three-zone heating and cooling (one for each floor); solar panels for energy efficiency; and an expansive unfinished basement for storage or potential development. Located just steps from Kelly Drive, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the vibrant shops and cafés of the Art Museum District, this home offers the perfect blend of historic beauty, space, and location.
