Property Description
Unbelievable Fairmount opportunity. This rare street-to-street property sits on a remarkable 102-foot-long lot - something you almost never see in the neighborhood. Originally built as a Centennial home for the 1876 World's Fair, this residence blends historic significance with modern luxury just one block from the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Kelly Drive. Welcome to this exceptional 4-bedroom, 4 full bath, 2 half bath home with the rare bonus of a detached garage in one of Fairmount's most desirable locations. Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, oversized windows flood the home with natural light, highlighting exposed brick accents and thoughtful architectural details throughout. The main level centers around a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and a generous center island perfect for gathering. The dining area flows seamlessly into the living room, creating an open, welcoming space that feels both refined and comfortable. Upstairs, each spacious bedroom offers the privacy of its own full bath - a true luxury. The primary suite serves as a retreat, complete with a spa-inspired ensuite bath. The finished basement provides flexible additional living space - ideal for a recreation room, media room, home gym, or guest area - complete with a half bath and full-size laundry (plus a second laundry area upstairs for added convenience). Step outside to a thoughtfully landscaped yard that feels like a private escape in the city. And with the detached garage - rare for Fairmount - you have the convenience of secure parking and additional storage. You're steps from world-class museums, river trails, neighborhood restaurants, parks, and everything that makes Fairmount so special. Street to street. Centennial history. 102 feet of opportunity. Parking. Opportunities like this truly don't come along often.
