About This Home

As of September 2023

In the 1920s, The Philadelphia Inquirer called Garden Court "the most exclusive location in West Philadelphia" and it still holds true 100 years later!

This is a rare opportunity to own an exceptional detached home in the heart of a phenomenal neighborhood. Located in the highly desirable Penn Alexander School Catchment and close to bucolic Clark Park (with the fantastic Farmers Market), this sprawling home sits on a serene tree-lined block within steps of wonderful shops, restaurants, universities, and hospitals!

This home has abundant light, incredible space, and tons of original character throughout! With details like stunning wood floors, leaded glass windows, and built-in armoires, this lovingly maintained home is ready to welcome its next owner! All this and TWO CAR GARAGE PARKING with additional parking in front of the garage.

The first floor features an expansive living room with gorgeous moldings, a fireplace, and a mantle. The serene sunroom leads to the perfect tiled deck nestled in abundant greenery. The huge dining room with a bay window is perfect for family gatherings. Rear kitchen with new washer & dryer, black and white tile floor, and cozy breakfast room. Entrance to a giant basement with tons of storage space, two newer Crown boilers, and the oversized garage.

The sunny hall leads to the second floor with the expansive main bedroom and en suite bath. The idyllic middle room has a gorgeous window and views of mature trees. Nice hall bath and another extra large bedroom with a separate sitting room and beautiful glass door dividers.

The third floor features more large bedrooms- one with three exposures making the perfect studio space or additional bedroom! This floor also features a tiled bathroom with a clawfoot tub and a cedar closet.

This home is truly a must-see!
