About This Home

As of August 2021

This tasteful, meticulously maintained townhouse enjoys one of best locations within the desirable Museum Commons community in the fabulous Fairmount/Art Museum section of the city. Newly built in 2004 the project was designed to seamlessly blend into the surrounding neighborhood and includes a private driveway and courtyard in the rear, between Fairmount and Wallace Streets allowing access to the unit’s attached garage. 2343 Wallace benefits from the treelined street, the quiet interior position on the block, and unobstructed views of the city skyline. The B units comprise the upper floors of the building, creating privacy, security, and a larger living area unimpeded by the stairway space. The front door and entrance to the home from the attached garage are both at street level. There is a large, finished basement currently used for valuable storage that can also function as a home office, gym or playroom. The short flights of stairs within the unit consist of only 7 stairs and create a uniquely staggered open floor plan. The huge sunlit living room is complete with gas fireplace, oversized sliding glass door, and offers sweeping views of the city. A large ready-for-entertaining dining room with Juliet balcony, opens to a professionally upgraded Kitchen with newer stainless-steel appliances, large island for seating or prep and ample storage throughout. The adjacent beautifully renovated powder room includes marble flooring, and a convenient Laundry Room with full-sized washer/dryer, custom cabinets, and floor to ceiling shelving completes this level. The third floor has two spacious bedrooms each with custom closets, a renovated hall bath with marble tile throughout, as well as an oversized hall closet with custom shelving/organization. The upper floor encompasses the luxurious master suite with renovated bathroom and two fully outfitted custom closets. Seller has installed new Pella® windows and sliding glass doors this year. Community updates are almost complete and include replacing all stucco with Everlast® composite siding, refurbishing the roofs, installing new Juliet balconies off the Dining Rooms, beatifying the front entrances and painting the garage doors and surrounding block work black. Just steps away from all that this vibrant and historic Art Museum community offers with its charming local eateries and bar staples such as Cantina Feliz, A Mano, The Black Taxi, Bishop's Collar, and The Fairview as well as Whole Foods and Tela's Market. Two blocks from the Philadelphia Museum of Art and minutes from The Barnes and Rodin Museums, and Gardens of the Fairmount Water Works. Easy access to The Parkway, Kelly & MLK Drives, I76, Penn, Drexel, and 30th Street Station. This beautifully updated and centrally located Fairmount home has it all!
