About This Home
As of December 2023Welcome to this Grand, Italianate style corner Quadplex in the heart of Philadelphia's Historic Spring Garden neighborhood. Originally built in 1856, this classic Victorian townhouse has most recently been used as four one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartments plus an additional artist studio space. With its 26' wide end-of-row design and a generous 3590 square feet of living space, this unique property offers a fantastic investment opportunity or the potential to restore it to its original grandeur as a single-family dwelling. The first floor boasts a shared entryway with paired double doors and marble vestibule. Enter the “owner’s unit” with grand living and dining spaces, soaring 11+ foot ceilings, a full kitchen with original built-in pine cupboard, an anteroom/office space, one bedroom w/ ensuite bathroom, and a charming garden with Koi pond off the kitchen. The second floor comprises two individual apartments, each featuring one bedroom, one bathroom, a large living room and a kitchen (one with windows wrapping two sides offering treetop views). On the third floor, you'll find one apartment with bedroom, bathroom, and a kitchen, and rooftop access with potential to create a deck with skyline views. There's also a non-housekeeping unit on this floor that could be combined with the apartment to form a spacious two-bedroom residence, previously used as an artist's studio. The property is flooded with light from the east, west, and south, and is a registered historic place, with architectural roots dating back to the mid 19th c. and renovated in 1901 by Savory and Sheets. Fun historical tidbit: a previous owner, Coleman Sellers, invented the world's first moving picture machine. The Thomas Eakins house (current home of Mural Arts Philadelphia) is conveniently adjacent to 601 on Mt. Vernon St., adding to the cultural richness of the area. Across from Roberto Clemente playground and the Spring Gardens community garden and just steps to the vibrant commercial Fairmount Avenue corridor featuring Tela Market and Cafe, Bar Hygge, Fare Restaurant, Jack’s firehouse and with easy access to the Barnes, the Philadelphia Art Museum and incredible cultural institutions along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to own a piece of Philadelphia's history while generating rental income or creating your dream single-family home.
