Listing description
Nestled in the historic Fairmount section of Philadelphia, you'll find a unique and captivating house that blends two rowhomes into a single, spacious property, which envelopes a charming interior enclosed courtyard. Although the house is currently serving as an office space, this extraordinary property has the potential to be transformed into a one-of-a-kind home. As you approach the house, the first thing you notice is its classic Philadelphia brick façade, a nod to the city's rich architectural heritage. The interior carries the same character, with original brick walls and mill work that gives the home the colonial character. There are a series of rooms within the property that span over 3 stories, a kitchen and additional small kitchenette, 2 working wood-burning fireplaces, a basement for storage and an elevator. Located on a beautiful street in the heart of Fairmount, close to restaurants, shops, public transport and more, this unique property is waiting for you!
