About This Home

As of January 2020

Absolutely stunning Victorian Twin built and occupied by the famous Philadelphian Architect Horace W. Castor in 1898. On March 14, 2017 this property was designated as Historical by the Historical Commission of Philadelphia and have been listed historic on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places. You will be amazed by this home and the land that it sits on, which is nearly 0.25 acres. There is a possibility of a subdivision in the rear yard for 2 duplexes or 3 single family homes. As you enter the property you will find an extremely large fenced in yard that wraps around the home as well as the beautiful wrap around porch. The exterior architecture is simply eye catching, from the shiplap siding, to the stone frontage, to the columns that surround the home. As you enter into this home, you will not be able to miss the meticulously well maintained character that this home has always offered and the 2,600 square feet of living space. As you enter the 1st floor, you will walk into a large living room with high ceilings, the original parquet flooring and original wood work. Pass the living room through a gorgeous doorway and enter into the very spacious dining room, once again with all the original wood floors, original wood work throughout, 3 stained glass windows and an original chandelier. You'll then enter into the very large eat in kitchen that also has a powder room and access to the yard and basement. You will then access the 2nd floor via the elegant wood winding stairs. The 2nd floor consists of 3 massive bedrooms and a full bath. Continue to the 3rd floor with 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath as well. There is a full basement with high ceilings, and 2 sump pumps, it is ready to be finished just the way you want it. Once in the back yard, which will quickly become your little hiding spot, you'll find ample space for grilling and entertaining or just relaxing. This yard is perfect for summertime entertainment! There is solar, dusk to dawn lighting all around the exterior of the house. This property also includes a small driveway and a 2 car garage, so there is plenty of parking. Public transportation is literally 25 feet away. You can take the train right into the center city. Property to sell as a package deal with 7345 Oxford Ave. Make your appointment today.
