Description

Nestled in the vibrant heart of the Francisville/Fairmount area, this spectacular three-story brick residence commands attention from its rare, sprawling 16.5'x110' lot. Fully transformed by a meticulous 2018 renovation, the home masterfully blends handsome curb appeal with pristine, move-in-ready interiors. Inside, the airy, open-concept main level creates a natural, energetic flow. Sun-drenched interiors are anchored by soaring 10-foot ceilings, elegant crown molding, and expansive windows that flood the grand living room with light. This level smoothly transitions from a sophisticated powder room into a true formal dining area, which seamlessly connects to a chef’s kitchen. Culinary enthusiasts will appreciate the sleek quartz countertops, smoky glass-tile backsplash, high-end stainless appliances with a commercial-style vent hood, and an expansive breakfast island flanked by a generous walk-in pantry. Beyond the kitchen, glass French doors open to a massive, fenced backyard oasis and generous patio—an unparalleled urban retreat perfect for pets, avid gardeners, or unforgettable large-scale entertaining.
The upper levels are thoughtfully zoned for premium comfort and versatility. A grand staircase leads to the second floor, which hosts a sunlit front suite with a private, oversized bath, alongside an additional rear bedroom serviced by a crisp hallway bathroom. The entire third floor is dedicated to an exquisite primary sanctuary, complete with its own dedicated climate control for ultimate comfort. Here, the lavish, spa-inspired primary bath features marble-inspired tiling, dual vanities, an opulent chandelier, and a massive walk-in shower equipped with dual showerheads. Mornings are made effortless with a private wet bar right in the suite, allowing you to brew your daily coffee before stepping out. Just down the hall, a smaller third-floor bedroom serves as an idyllic home office or reading room overlooking the lush backyard, positioned right next to an additional full bath. For even more flexibility, the finished basement provides a dynamic bonus space ideal for a media lounge, home gym, or private workspace, rounded out with a full bathroom and dedicated utility storage. Tied together by rich hardwood flooring and sleek recessed lighting throughout, this residence boasts a prime location in the highly coveted Art Museum area. Enjoy seamless city living with the vibrant boutiques and dining of Fairmount Avenue just steps away, effortless access to Center City and the Broad Street Line, and easy strolls to Kelly Drive and the world-class museums nearby.
