crave! Featuring refinished original floors with walnut inlay, solid wood built-ins, and a beautiful
blooming backyard in the heart of one of Philadelphia's most desirable neighborhoods, this home is
truly beautiful. Enter through a bright vestibule with a leaded glass door and transom window and into
a large living room which offers solid wood built-in shelving, sized for both books and records, with
hidden electrical outlets, and a rolling library ladder. The decorative mantle is the perfect place to
display your holiday décor while creating a focal point in the room. French doors lead you to the bright
and spacious separate dining room where you will love hosting dinner parties or family holiday meals.
Another beautiful leaded glass door leads you to the tiled kitchen with soapstone counters, solid wood
cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of natural light. A convenient pass through to the
dining room allows for the family cook to still be a part of the conversation while they create culinary
masterpieces. A sliding door allows access to a sizable rear garden with perennials and a flowering
dogwood tree - the perfect space for outdoor entertaining or dining al fresco. Upstairs, a skylight gives
plenty of natural light to the second floor which houses three bedrooms and a hall bathroom. The rear
bedroom boasts bay windows, while the front bedroom features an original built-in armoire with
ornate woodwork. The middle bedroom makes for an ideal office or nursery. The hall bathroom has
marble floors, a classic subway tile surround, a pedestal sink, and a built-in corner cabinet and shelves
for plenty of storage. This coveted location is in close proximity to the Philadelphia Museum of Art,
Fairmount Park and the Barnes, not to mention popular neighborhood restaurants and coffee shops
like Angelino’s, Brown Street Coffee, and The Boozy Mutt. Freshly painted, this home is ready for its new owner!
