About This Home

As of January 2025

Welcome to 779 N 24th Street, nestled on a beautiful tree lined street in the heart of Fairmount. This brick row home exudes generations of love as it has been in the family for decades. As you enter the welcoming living room, you'll notice 9.5' foot ceilings, with plenty of space for living. The first floor flows from the living room to a dining room perfect for hosting, then into the kitchen. Finishing out the first floor there is a full bath and separate laundry room. In the back of the home, there is also a second stairwell that leads upstairs. Out the back through the kitchen, there is a quaint private back patio perfect for grilling out or relaxing on a summer evening. As you move up to the second floor, you will find two large bedrooms, both suitable in size to be the primary suite, as well as a smaller bedroom and full bath. On the third floor you will find two large bedrooms. In addition to the spacious interior that's full of potential for a future owner, this home is located in a sought after neighborhood and earns a walk score of 90! Fairmount is a vibrant neighborhood with top-rated restaurants, friendly local shops and lively entertainment at every turn! Whole Foods, Target, and Wine & Spirit are nearby, as are landmarks, including The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Kelly Drive, and Eastern State Penitentiary. There's also easy access to the Community College of Philadelphia, I-676, I-76, and public transit. Call to Schedule your showing today!
