Property Description

Welcome to a captivating home that exudes warmth, character, and history, passed down through generations and now awaiting its newest owners to infuse their passion, time and elbow grease to restore and renovate this glorious home.  This delightful residence is nestled in a prime location directly across from the renowned East Passyunk Avenue and within the esteemed Fanny Jackson Coppin School District, making it an ideal choice for families looking for community and convenience.

As you approach this tree-lined street, the stunning brownstone and real brick façade create instant curb appeal. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a beautifully preserved original handcrafted tile vestibule that sets the tone for the charm that awaits within. The expansive living space features open and airy layouts, showcasing impressive handcrafted moldings and woodwork that hark back to a time when quality was paramount. The original hardwood floors, embellished with intricate inlay touches, are ready to be lovingly restored to their former glory, while the soaring ceilings and an extraordinary staircase with a handcrafted metal bannister add a touch of elegance.

This inviting living area seamlessly flows into a separate dining space, well-lit and adorned with a stunning chandelier—an ideal backdrop for dinner parties and holiday gatherings. The full kitchen, quaint and full of retro charm, is a canvas for creativity, just waiting for someone to revitalize it and bring it back to its heyday.

The full basement features handmade cedar closets, offering additional storage options, while also providing potential for transformation into usable living space for a growing family. It also includes a separate laundry room and a half bath. For peace of mind, the water and sewer pipes were recently replaced in 2025 by the city of Philadelphia.
