Description

In the heart of West Philly's University City, this upgraded and beautifully maintained 4th floor, 917 sf condominium features a recently rehabbed kitchen with a gas range - a true chef’s preferred cooking method, unavailable in many of the other units at Garden Court. There’s a large dining area, a spacious, bright living room and a classic bath with a combo washer/dryer. The current owner split the bedroom into two sections: one just for sleeping and the other as a dressing room/ office, for maximum work-from-home privacy. A future owner can easily remove the inner walls without damage to the handsome oak floors if they prefer to have one large bedroom again.
Garden Court was designed by West Philadelphia developer Clarence Siegel in the 1920s in the gracious “pre-war” style which includes oversized windows, classic woodwork and hardwood flooring. Its timeless bathrooms feature leaded glass windows, ceramic tile floors and Vitrolite glass walls. The Preservation Alliance now holds a façade easement on its historic exterior. When it was built, the complex was offered as a 6-story luxury apartment development for residents who didn’t want the hassle of taking care of a house. Converted to condos in 1994, it still fills that hassle-free housing spot today. Condo amenities include a glamorous indoor year-round swimming pool, exercise room, library, meeting room, indoor bike storage, and outdoor space with gardens, fountains and koi ponds in two gated courtyards. The location is just six blocks west of the University of Pennsylvania and close to public transportation, nearby restaurants and coffee shops.
