Nestled within the historic Blue Mansard, this one-of-a-kind first-floor condominium offers the perfect blend of timeless architecture and modern convenience. Originally built as a grand residence and now thoughtfully divided into six unique homes, the property sits on nearly half an acre along one of Germantown's picturesque, tree-lined streets, just moments from the vibrant shops and restaurants of Germantown Avenue. Inside, you'll find an inviting layout highlighted by soaring 10-foot ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, classic millwork, original built-ins, central air conditioning, and the distinctive charm that only a historic home can provide. The updated eat-in kitchen features a center island, generous pantry storage, and plenty of space for everyday dining or hosting guests. Just beyond the kitchen, the comfortable living room is filled with natural light and centered around a decorative fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The spacious bedroom is tucked away at the rear of the home and includes a large walk-in closet, a private ensuite bathroom, and direct access to a covered patio overlooking the property's lush, peaceful grounds. This residence combines the beauty of historic living with the ease of condominium ownership. Enjoy one designated off-street parking space, additional storage, and tranquil outdoor views without the upkeep of a single-family home. The location is equally impressive, with Germantown Kitchen Garden, Maker Artisan Pizza, Daaiyah's Delicious, Uncle Bobbie's Coffee & Books, Germantown Friends School, Greene Street Friends School, Grumblethorpe, and Howell Park all within a short walk. You're also just minutes from the new Germantown Weavers Way Co-op, the Wissahickon trail system, Vernon Park, Fernhill Park, and Cloverly Park, offering endless opportunities for recreation, dining, and community events.
