Property Description
This beautifully restored and landscaped historically-designated single family home in Powelton Village provides a suburban oasis in the city, in easy walking distance to Penn and Drexel campuses, 30th Street Station, and Center City! A stunning three story Italianate, this unique free standing home was originally built in 1860, completely redesigned in 1910 by Penn Architect Louis Magaziner for his private residence, and was extensively remodeled in 2008 by the current owners. It is now available for the first time in nearly two decades. The 4,500+ square ft home and its adjacent yard (MLS #7007433) are separately deeded parcels, with total dimensions of 94x100 feet. The yard (which is zoned for either a single or multi family structure) is available separately for $395,000. The home itself features six large bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, two extra family rooms, a huge in-law suite with separate kitchen, an abundance of closets, a whole house fan, a large skylight which lights up the 3 story stunning oak staircase, a new laundry mudroom, separate back stairway from the garden, into the kitchen and up to the 2nd and 3rd floors. The NARI awards magazine has chosen this home in the past for its award-winning features, including some which may not be noticed at first glance such as the antique lighting fixtures throughout (all electric updated), original parlor moldings, fireplaces, leaded glass, immense pocket door, and the original (and still functioning) window shutters in the formal dining room and 2nd floor family room. Last but not least, the scene behind the walls matches what you see in front of them. Most of the home was completely gutted and rehabbed in 2008 and now has a reinforced structure, a three zone high-pressure HVAC system, new electric and plumbing, heated floors in the new master bath and kitchen addition with sunroom, renovated rubber roofing with interior gutters, several smaller copper roofs, new gas fireplace in the family room, and utility lines. Everything about the home is light and airy, well-designed for entertaining, and of the highest quality materials. Two new ornate and architecturally consistent balconies provide second floor outdoor space overlooking the beautifully landscaped yard and fish pond. Schedule your showing today to see one of Philadelphia's most unique historic homes, beautifully renovated for modern living.
