Description
As you enter the house, you’ll love the large rooms filled with natural light and...Opportunity knocks! Zoned RM-1. Fabulous large 3400sf end of row home located in the heart of the fast growing and developing East Parkside neighborhood of West Philly. This unique home has been in the same family since 1934 and has been lovingly maintained and updated. Bring your creative ideas and transform it into a magnificent single-family home or turn it into an income producing multi-units investment property.
As you enter the house, you’ll love the large rooms filled with natural light and beautiful architectural details such as 10 foot ceilings throughout, the solid wood Dutch front door, the beautiful millwork, and the fully restored 1930-40s venetian blinds. The front of the house was once occupied by a doctor’s office – and still is – although it has not been operational for years. As you make your way on the first floor, you see a lovely window bench by the bay-window, a perfect place to relax with a book, a powder room, a large living room, formal dining room and eat-in kitchen and laundry area that open unto a small, fenced backyard, perfect for gardening and summer entertaining.
The 2nd floor features 3 large bedrooms, a generously sized landing, and a full bath which was restored to match the 50s era. The 3rd floor also has 3 generously sized bedrooms and full bath featuring the original claw foot tub! – the 3rd floor has been replumbed and is ready to accommodate either a kitchen and laundry room if one wishes. The waste line has also been replaced from the 3rd floor to the basement.
The walk-up unfinished attic is easily accessible and is currently used for storage but can easily be finished into comfortable living space.
The basement covers the full footprint of the home, has good height ( 7 foot), and can be easily finished.
The front porch was rebuilt/restored with special attention taken to retain the original style and architectural details of the period. New columns were custom ordered to match the originals, and the brick work and capping to match in color and style. Seller also restored the original arches under the porch (originally for coal delivery!) and redid the landing and sidewalk while preserving the diamond brick details/ornament.
In addition, there is a 10’ wrought iron gate giving access to the back of the property and metal bars to the most windows.
Central Air could easily be ducted/ installed from the attic and basement.
This unique property is located in close proximity to public transportation (# 38, #40 bus, and #15 trolley), a 2 minute drive to the Philadelphia Zoo (on W Girard Ave), Please Touch Museum, The Mann Centre for Performing Arts, Fairmount Park, 2 blocks away from I-76, 10 minutes to King of Prussia and 5-10 minutes away from University City (with top notch colleges and hospitals), and Center City (with premier shopping, dining, and cultural experiences). There are 2 bridges on either side of the property at 41st and 42nd St connecting the house directly to Mantua and University City, home of Penn U and Drexel U.
