Listing description

Charming Fairmount Oasis with Modern Amenities Discover this tasteful 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence in the heart of Philadelphia’s sought-after Fairmount neighborhood. Boasting a versatile second-floor office/den and a beautifully renovated courtyard deck, this home perfectly blends historic charm with contemporary luxury. Behind a perfectly pointed brick facade adorned with window boxes and space for a bistro table, you'll find an inviting living area. Relax by the updated fireplace, which serves as a stunning focal point for cozy evenings and conversation with friends. The main level flows seamlessly into a dedicated dining room, connected to a bright, efficient kitchen via a convenient pass-through window. Just beyond lies the home's standout feature: a private back patio featuring premium Trex decking, a pergola, built-in seating, and custom lighting. This serene courtyard is truly the envy of the neighborhood. On the second floor, you'll find a well-appointed front bedroom and a classic bathroom featuring marble basketweave floors and a soaking tub that honors the home's original era. A flexible bonus room sits in between, perfect for a home office or den, complete with built-in shelving. The third floor is dedicated to comfort, featuring a primary suite with a modern ensuite bath and a glass-enclosed marble shower. The third bedroom and every bedroom in the house is outfitted with a custom closet system by Closets By Design, ensuring optimal organization. For year-round comfort, the home includes efficient mini-split heating and cooling with remote access. The clean, spacious basement houses the laundry and offers ample storage. Half of the basement has been upgraded with new rubber gym flooring, creating the perfect space for a home workout, play area, or hobby room. Located on Croskey Street—arguably the best block in Fairmount—this home benefits from easier street parking thanks to its proximity to the Bache Middle School and the Fairmount Avenue lot. You are just steps away from dog parks, playgrounds, coffee shops, and renowned restaurants. Enjoy easy access to the Art Museum, Kelly Drive, and major highways for a quick commute in or out of the city
