Here’s your chance to own a rare home on one of the most unique blocks in Philadelphia. One of East Falls’ earliest and most architecturally significant homes has just hit the market.

With stunning curb appeal, a walkout roof deck, front and rear yards, multiple Bluestone patios, walkout finished basement, and off-street parking for 2 cars (garage and driveway).
