2229 Green St #3

This utterly charming, light-filled condo on one of Fairmount's most desirable blocks has a woodburning fireplace and a roofdeck with 360-degree views. The building itself is full of the original character that's a hallmark of the area, with a lush front garden and brick path with bike storage leading to the arched transom front door and marble vestibule. These historic details continue into and throughout the unit, where there are super-high ceilings, oak floors and deep-set oversize windows; even the intact original curved handrail is incorporated into the sunny living room with fireplace. The galley kitchen has ceramic tile flooring, granite countertops with undermount sink, and fun retro-cool white and aluminum cabinets. The spacious L-shaped bedroom has a sweet arched niche, two windows and two closets (one of which is a double), and enough room for a dressing area leading to the bathroom, which has ceramic tile flooring and tub surround, glass shower doors and a rainhead fixture. With fresh paint throughout and in-unit laundry, the living space leaves nothing lacking. The cherry on top is the roofdeck, which offers not only amazing skyline views from Center City to University City, but enough space for lounge furniture. This condo is peacefully nestled on the top floor overlooking an idyllic tree-lined street that's less than three blocks to Fairmount Ave dining and shopping (including the mega Whole Foods) and offers easy access to Fairmount Park and all the arts and culture the Parkway has to offer.
