Listing description

Tucked away on one of Fairmount's quieter, tree-lined blocks, this classic brick rowhome has all the details buyers hope to find—original pine floors, exposed brick, high ceilings, oversized windows, and a private rear patio—but what really sets it apart are the improvements you don't immediately see. Since the current owner purchased the home, they've invested in the kinds of upgrades that are easy to overlook but expensive to tackle: the sewer line has been fully replaced, the electrical system has been updated and knob-and-tube wiring removed, masonry repairs have been completed, basement window lintels repaired, parging restored, the roof recoated and resealed, and a new gutter installed. Fresh paint, updated fixtures, and additional cosmetic improvements make the home feel move-in ready while preserving its original character. Inside, the first floor offers a bright, open living and dining space anchored by exposed brick and flooded with natural light from oversized front windows. The kitchen provides generous cabinet storage and opens directly to the rear patio, creating an easy extension of the living space during warmer months. Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated bathroom. The primary bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed and features two large east-facing windows that fill the room with morning light. The basement deserves special mention. Unlike many city rowhomes, the ceiling height here creates genuine flexibility. Whether you need substantial storage, a workshop, or envision a future home gym, the space feels usable from day one. Located within the Bache-Martin catchment and just a short walk from Fairmount favorites like Musette, A Mano, Brown Street Coffee, The Lucky Goat, the Art Museum, Kelly Drive, and the Schuylkill River Trail. This is the kind of home that offers both neighborhood charm and practical peace of mind.
