Property Description

Step into a rare Philadelphia treasure-an elegant 1875 Second Empire rowhouse with Italianate detailing, set on an expansive lot in East Kensington that only 1% of single homes in the area can boast. The mansard roof, decorative cornice, arched windows, and preserved Victorian touches like stained glass, antique lighting, marble fireplace, wood trim, and banisters reflect a timeless grandeur, while modern updates make it ready for today. Inside, original wood floors lead you through a spacious layout. The double living room gives you flexibility-create a formal dining space, a quiet reading nook, or a home office in one section, while the larger area easily accommodates a wrap-around sofa for cozy movie nights or lively conversations. The open kitchen and dining area are bathed in light, with 2 sets of double doors opening to the yard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Step outside to a backyard oasis unlike anything in the city-decking with built-in fire pit and planters, stone patio, and a yard large enough to host a wedding, family reunion, or your personal pool. Beautiful brick walls and lush vines enclose the space, offering both privacy and charm. A chef's dream kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a professional 6-burner Premier Pro Series gas range, workstation, recessed lighting, water filtration, and exposed brick that rises up the entire right side of the house. The second floor offers three spacious bedrooms plus a den, all with endless layout options-bedrooms, playroom, guest rooms, dressing room, or home offices. The massive front bedroom is especially noteworthy. Upstairs, the third-floor primary suite feels like a retreat, complete with two double closets, skylit spa bath with Jacuzzi tub, and the potential for a roof deck with skyline views. The full-sized basement features a finished ceiling and recessed lights, making it perfect for a playroom, gym, or media room, as well as laundry, storage, and a utility tub. 8-minute walk to the Berks El Station and close to all the neighborhood favorites on Front and Frankford Streets, plus Riverwards Produce, this home combines historic character, modern comfort, and unmatched outdoor space. A true one-of-a-kind opportunity in East Kensington.
