Property Description
A rare find, this nearly 3500 square foot corner property is filled with character, and all of the original details are still intact. Located in historic Powelton Village, near Drexel University and Penn, this gorgeous home boasts 4 bedrooms, a den, and 2.5 baths. The attractive brick and stucco facade, tall windows, and covered formal porch entrance welcome you into the house. As you enter the vestibule into the large living room, the unusually tall 12-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows will astound you, as the natural light fills the room. The original doors, windows, ceiling medallions, and wood-burning fireplace add to the charm of this home. Moving through the original parlor is a second entrance, located on the side of the home, providing easy entrance from Race Street. Located on the main level is the powder room, tucked away between the second entrance and the dining room, which easily would fit a 10 person dining table. As you walk through the first floor, you'll note the original hardwood and gorgeous, curving staircase with walnut railing. Entering the sizable kitchen through a pair of French doors, you'll find lots of mahogany cabinetry, an abundance of counter space, and room for an island. Off of the kitchen is the back patio, set with brick pavers. This gardener’s delight is lined with greenery and trees, and perfect for outdoor entertaining as there's an entrance to the backyard from the street. Moving back into the house and to the 2nd level, you will enter a generous den/office area, perfect for your work-at-home activities with original wood and glass bookcases. Beyond the den is a large bedroom. Up a half-flight is the bathroom and another very large bedroom with high ceilings, built-in bookcases. Through the walk-in closet, you are able to access the Jack-and-Jill bathroom, which is complete with a pedestal sink, large linen closet, and a tub shower combo with windows on two sides. Making your way up to the 3rd level, you'll find a massive room with parquet flooring, which could easily be divided into a bedroom with a den, like the room below it. The fourth and final bedroom has the original refinished wood flooring and a walk-in closet that also connects to the second full bathroom, another Jack-and-Jill style bath that opens to the hallway with corner windows that look into the treetops outside. It has a separate shower stall and clawfoot, cast iron soaking tub. This amazing house has major potential! Did we mention the updated mechanicals and open space in the basement? Could easily be finished into a lower-level living space. This lovely property is within walking distance to the new Powel School, Penn, Drexel, 30th St Station, and the Art Museum.
