This classic 3BR, 1026 sf 2-story townhouse has great bones PLUS location advantages that just can’t be beat. First off, it’s in the catchment area for the excellent Greenfield K-8 public school – or if private school is your choice, The Philadelphia School is just 4 blocks away. Next, its edge-of-Fitler-Square/ Graduate Hospital location is the closest residential area to the Children's Hospital Roberts Center, and it's just across the South St. Bridge from the campus of the University of Pennsylvania, Children's Hospital (CHOP), the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP) and Drexel University. And there’s an amazing parking feature specific to this particular, off-the-beaten-track block. It’s a limited access, one-way street with houses on only one side of the street, but parking on both sides, so it’s not unusual for residents to be able to park right in front of their own houses. In the same family since 1959, 2639 Bainbridge has retained its original wood floors and classic layout: entry vestibule, large living room, full dining room, rear kitchen and private back yard. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and a to-die-for classic c.1940s peach & mint green tiled bath. The unfinished basement is tall and clear with possibilities for additional uses. Everything works as-is, but the next owner will likely want to renovate to make this sweet spot their own.
