About This Home
As of July 2023Welcome to "Palmer Gardens". Located in the heart of Fishtown, just off of Frankford Ave, this beautifully renovated 3-story home offers a perfect blend of historic character and modern appointments surrounded by multiple lush green spaces, seamlessly blending the indoors and outdoors.
A hearty green courtyard garden creates a soft transition from the gated entry to the front door. Behind the brick facade is the living room and dining area, featuring original pine hardwood floors, high ceilings with recessed lighting and Lutron smart-home capabilities. The sleek kitchen carries a modern silhouette with clean lines, contrasting countertops, stainless steel appliances, radiant heated floors, custom cabinetry accentuated by natural light through a thoughtful design that brings the outdoors in. Step outside to a private oasis of greenery complete with firepit, theater screen, grill space, and a historic privy pit turned work of art! The outside spaces are equipped with an irrigation system and water collection system, creating an eco-friendly avenue to keeping your green spaces happy. With a pet door leading to a secure backyard, pet lovers can rest easy knowing that their four-legged friends have the freedom to safely enjoy the outdoors!
Upstairs, you'll find two bright and airy bedrooms flanking an open gallery space that's currently used as an office. A full hallway bathroom serves the guest room and office. In the rear of the house a luxurious master suite features a large bedroom and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub, separate shower, dry sauna, dual vanities, and radiant heated floors. A deck off of the master completes this level.
The third floor is a flexible space that's perfect as either a bedroom or a great entertaining level with a skylight, green wall, wet bar, and sliding doors leading to an incredible upper-level deck, complete with outdoor audio. The tiered architectural design of the home allows views from the top deck down to the greenery in the rear courtyard, creating a spacious urban oasis across multiple levels.
The unfinished basement offers a practical solution to your storage needs, as well as laundry. Recent updates to major systems include a new hot water heater (2022) and boiler (2023).
Walkable to many of Fishtown's best restaurants, cafes, bars, and retail, as well as public transportation and major highways, this home offers the perfect combination of urban convenience and suburban tranquility. Don't miss this opportunity to make it yours!
