About This Home

As of December 2024

Welcome to 1821 Christian St, a spacious single-family home located in the very desirable Graduate Hospital neighborhood. This home offers an impressive 18 ft wide layout with 2000 sqft of living space, making it perfect for families to live in or for investors looking for a great rental property to own or customize to something more fabulous for resale in the future.

Renovated in 2007, this property served perfectly as a highly sought-after rental home for nearly 18 years, showcasing its desirability and quality. With its move-in ready condition, this home offers the convenience of an immediate move to occupy it yourself and/or the potential to customize it to your own future vision. With RM1 zoning, the possibilities are open for investing to potentially create a multi-unit apartment or condo conversion.

The list of features that make this property truly special is extensive. Enjoy the great convenience of garage parking, a highly sought-after amenity in Philadelphia. Located in a historic section of GHO, this home is surrounded by neighborhood cafes, live music venues, the Ave of The Arts, markets, coffee houses, and is only several blocks south of the beautiful Rittenhouse Square Park. Inside, you'll find a bright and airy interior with southern exposure, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere flooded with natural light. The first floor boasts a spacious kitchen and dining area, complete with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, maple cabinets, and a tumbled travertine backsplash. There is also a convenient half bath located off the wide entrance hallway. Step through the sliding doors to access a secured outdoor patio space to use for outdoor grilling or relaxation.

On the second floor, you'll discover a generous living room space, complete with its own built-in wet bar. This floor also accommodates two well-sized bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor is dedicated to a spacious primary bedroom suite, offering ample closet space and a large bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and shower. Additionally, this level features two more bedrooms, a laundry room with full sized washer and dryer, and another full bathroom.

This home has been freshly painted and features a brand-new roof and gutter system, ensuring its long-term durability. Looking ahead, there is potential to add a spacious roof deck to maximize outdoor living space. The HVAC system is good quality and well-maintained and the water heater is only a year old.

For investors, it's worth noting that this property recently commanded a monthly rent of $4,400, further emphasizing its excellent investment potential. Currently vacant and awaiting your personal touch, this home presents an incredible opportunity that should not be missed.

The sellers are motivated and open to considering all offers. Don't hesitate to seize this chance to make 1821 Christian St your own! Photos have been enhanced using Virtual Staging and design.
