Property Description

History, beauty, style, and design meet in this 5 bedroom 2.5 bathroom 19th Century Victorian home. The Stick-style Queen Anne design, prismatic roof architecture, and the lush and expansive yard are clear reasons why this home is located on a street once named "The Prettiest Street in Philadelphia." Walk up the charming pathway to the welcoming porch complete with a swing! Enter into the foyer and reception hall adorned with stained glass and gorgeous original hardwood floors that add to the aura of visual complexity and richness that the Victorian age adored. The living room is large with 9 ft ceilings and the original fireplace. The dining room is embellished with an expertly designed carved chandelier and is a wonderful place to host friends and family. The kitchen boasts high cathedral ceilings and modern upgrades without losing the historical charm. The pantry room is original with Spanish tiles and a window overlooking the garden. Up the winding wood staircase is the open and airy living room with a fireplace and large windows. This floor also includes a large bedroom, a huge master bedroom with a fireplace, and full bathroom. Follow the staircase up to the third floor to find two large rooms drenched in natural light. The full bath here was rebuilt in 2007 with a Jacuzzi tub, subway tiles, and washer/dryer for convenience. In the professionally landscaped and maintained rear yard, you can spend hours of fun with friends! Do not miss this rare opportunity to own such a stunningly historic home with modern conveniences!
