Grand and gracious porch-front twin Townhome in the heart of University City. This spacious home in the Penn Alexander school catchment was built in 1905 and combines old world craftsmanship with a contemporary aesthetic. The rich chestnut wood is incorporated into 12” crown moldings, benches, and leaded glass features throughout. The first and second floor owner’s unit includes a renovated covered porch and a private back yard. The third floor two bedroom apartment has a private entrance on the side of the home and could serve as a supplemental income or a mother-in-law/au pair space. Although zoned for two units, the space is easily converted back to a single family home as well. Both units have fully renovated kitchens and baths as well as separate utilities and laundry.

The first floor features a newly marble tiled foyer which leads to a generously sized living room, dining room and an eat in kitchen and powder room. The second floor primary bedroom hosts a rich cherry stained fireplace and built in closets. The 2nd floor hall bath is richly clad in white marbles with silver veins. There are two bedrooms behind which open one into the next for expansive connected bedroom space. The property also has a full basement and large attic for storage. The neighborhood location is just beyond the undergraduate zone and is a thriving, diverse community just steps from a multitude of restaurants, shops, the University of Pennsylvania and public transit to Center City.
