This is a piece of American history, and with the Fourth of July and America's 250th around the corner, the timing feels almost poetic. Philadelphia, after all, is where the whole experiment started; and Germantown, one of its oldest and most storied neighborhoods, is where this 1890 treasure sits waiting for its next chapter. Wide-plank hardwoods. Exposed brick. A kitchen where cast iron hangs from the wall like it belongs there, because it does. A vine-covered pergola shading a private garden patio with roses in bloom. A bathroom that surprises you in the best possible way. Three stories of solid masonry, character, and purpose. Tucked away down a quiet one lane street, yet still walking distance to beloved Weaver's Way Co-Op, SEPTA lines, and some of the most beautifully preserved parks and streetscapes in Philadelphia. Affordable, attractive, and coming soon.
