Listing description

Some homes simply have a feeling the moment you walk through the door—and 884 N. Stillman Street is one of them. Tucked into one of Fairmount’s most desirable residential pockets, this charming two-bedroom residence blends classic Philadelphia architecture with warm, inviting interiors and an outdoor space that feels worlds away from the city. A handsome brick façade and welcoming entry lead into a light-filled main level where original character and thoughtful design come together beautifully. Rich hardwood flooring flows throughout, complemented by custom window treatments, built-in storage, and a distinctive shiplap feature that gives the living room its own personality. The adjacent kitchen is bright and functional, offering generous cabinetry and a breakfast bar that naturally brings everyone together. Beyond the back door is where this home truly sets itself apart. The private rear garden is a lush urban escape, surrounded by mature landscaping and anchored by a magnificent shade tree. A generous deck extends the living space outdoors, creating an idyllic spot for morning coffee, afternoon cocktails, dinner with friends, or simply enjoying a quiet evening surrounded by greenery. Upstairs, both bedrooms offer a comfortable retreat, while the beautifully appointed and recently renovated bathroom delivers plenty of character with chic modern upgrades. An exposed brick accent and sliding barn door add additional architectural interest and reinforce the home’s unmistakable Philadelphia charm. A full unfinished basement provides valuable storage and houses the laundry area, leaving plenty of flexibility for everyday organization. And then there is the location. Live just moments from the Art Museum while enjoying easy access to Center City, Kelly Drive, the Schuylkill River, Fairmount Park, and the Philadelphia Zoo. Grab coffee, meet friends for dinner or drinks, take the dog to the park, or head out for a walk along the river—all without sacrificing the peace and community feel that make Fairmount so special. Charming, private, beautifully cared for, and surrounded by everything that makes this neighborhood so sought-after, 884 N. Stillman Street is a true Fairmount original. Make your appointment today, this one won't last long!
