A truly charming Fitler Square home on one of the prettiest cobblestone streets in the city! Philadelphia Magazine ranked this block the third most beautiful street in all of Philadelphia. Ideally positioned with Fitler Square Park at one end of the block and Schuylkill River Park at the other, with its scenic running trail and two dog parks. Behind a classic brick facade with traditional shutters and an inviting entrance are two stories of bright, freshly painted living space, a finished lower level, and an enclosed brick patio. The spacious open living and dining room showcases the home's character, with warm hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, an exposed brick accent wall, and an original fireplace with an arched cast iron insert, black surround, slate hearth, and classic white mantel with carved corbels. Tall front windows flood the living room with light, and a coat closet and powder room sit conveniently off the living area. The eat-in kitchen is the standout, with white cabinetry topped by crown molding, a tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. A substantial quartz center island with accent cabinetry offers seating, generous prep space, and extra storage, while recessed and undercabinet lighting brighten the work areas and rear windows bring in abundant daylight. A dedicated nook adds room for a workstation or coffee bar. Directly off the kitchen, the enclosed brick garden patio extends the living space outdoors, with a wood privacy fence, a raised planter along the perimeter, and wall-mounted planters adding greenery throughout. Private and tucked away, it is perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs, skylights over the hallway and middle bedroom fill the second floor with natural light. The primary bedroom offers oversized double closets with organizers; the front bedroom overlooks the cobblestone street below. The full bath is huge, with a double vanity and a spacious shower. Convenient second-floor laundry and a deep linen closet complete the level. The finished lower level adds a family room, playroom, home office, or den, with built-in shelving, recessed lighting, and plenty of storage. Enjoy a remarkable neighborhood setting, as quiet as it is walkable, close to Fitler Square Park, the tennis courts, playground, and community garden at Schuylkill River Park, neighborhood coffee shops like Rival Bros, Mr. Rabbit, and Rowhome Coffee, Rittenhouse Square, Center City shops and restaurants, and an easy walk to the University of Pennsylvania, CHOP, and 30th Street Station.
