Traditional

This sunny and spacious Spruce Hill/University City townhome in the Penn Alexander catchment was beautifully renovated, while preserving so much of the original details and charm. With five bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a fully finished basement, and two great outdoor spaces, this home has it all! A classic West Philly front porch with solid wood double doors with leaded glass welcomes you into a gracious tiled foyer with ornate woodwork detail. The open concept first floor features hardwood floors, high ceilings, decorative tiled fireplace and mantle, and gorgeous staircase banister. The spacious dining area flows into a large, beautifully updated kitchen with a classic black countertop and breakfast bar, and white subway tile backsplash, gorgeous handcrafted oak pot rack, stainless steel appliances and white shaker cabinets with plenty of storage. Just beyond the kitchen, you'll find a conveniently located powder room and a mudroom with built-in shelving that opens onto a spacious private patio. Beyond the backyard to the right, a peaceful pocket park/bird sanctuary is directly accessible to neighbors on this block. The second floor is home to the spacious primary bedroom suite, huge walk-in closet, and a spacious spa-like ensuite bath with tiled floor, large soaking tub, and separate stall shower. On this floor you will find an additional bedroom (or a great office/den) with bay window. The third floor has an additional 3 bedrooms and a large and lovely updated hall bathroom with dual vanity. This floor is also home to the laundry closet. The finished basement has a full bathroom and roughly 600 square feet of additional space that can be used for a media room, exercise equipment, or guest space, plus a private corner nook that can be used as a cozy office, with additional storage space in the back. New roofs and all updated systems including dual-zoned central AC. This wonderful home is walkable to all the best that the neighborhood has to offer, including countless restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, Clark Park with its fabulous Farmers' Market and events, University City Swim Club, Mariposa Food Co-op, and so much more. Super convenient to HUP, CHOP, Penn, Drexel, University of the Sciences and about 10 minutes to Center City by car or bike with plenty of convenient SEPTA options. This area qualifies for both Penn and Drexel’s Home Ownership program grants for employees (confirm details directly with individual programs to see if you qualify). No expense was spared in designing and renovating this truly lovely home in a location that can't be beat. Schedule your showing today!
