About This Home

As of July 2022

Just Lovely! You have to see this Graduate Hospital home to understand that it embodies the word lovely. The entire house is so light and airy and has a certain je ne sais quoi that you have to experience. A large tree and a beautiful brick front welcome you to 1639 Fitzwater. With 3 large bedrooms and 3 separate outdoor spaces with amazing city views, you will want to make this home yours. This home is 16 ft wide with high ceilings, making the open floor plan on the first floor feel notably spacious. Crown molding and hardwood floors keep the space elegant and timeless. With its southern exposure, the house is always filled with natural light. There is ample room for separate living and dining spaces before you reach the large kitchen. The kitchen has granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a pantry, and a breakfast bar with seating for 3 or 4. In the rear of the home is a dreamy 16 ft by 18 ft brick patio with a 1-story exposed brick wall on the side. The second floor has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and laundry. The rear bedroom has windows facing north and west, which makes the space feel light and open. The closet has been designed by The Container Store. Next to this bedroom is the hall bathroom with a tub/shower combo and window. The generously sized front bedroom has an attached bathroom with marble tile shower. A stacked washer and dryer are conveniently located on this level. The top floor is dedicated to the primary bedroom and bathroom. The sun filled bedroom has a striking vaulted ceiling and can easily accommodate your king-sized bed and furniture. The attached bathroom has a dual vanity, a marble shower with glass door, and a skyline view through the window. From the 3rd floor you can access the stunning bi-level roof deck with unbeatable views of the city. The basement is spacious and dry with plenty of room for storage. This is an A+ location! Walk 2 blocks to South St, and dozens of restaurants and shops are at your fingertips. Sprouts, Target, Wine and Spirits, and other stores are only 5 blocks away. A 10 to 15-minute walk gets you to Rittenhouse Square or all the great restaurants on 13th St. It’s also one block away from a local playground and pool. This location is an easy walking commute or quick public transit ride to CHOP, UPENN, HUP, or Jefferson.
