Here’s your chance to live in a rarely offered Victorian porch-front condo on a quintessential, tree-lined West Philly block. Perched on the second floor of a gracious Victorian twin bursting with original charm, this bright and extra-spacious home spans the entire floor and was tastefully updated just a few years ago. Enjoy modern comfort with central air, recessed lighting, fire-sprinkler protection, and more closet space than you’d ever expect in a 19th-century beauty. The kitchen shines with granite countertops, ceramic tile flooring, crisp shaker-style cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. The open living and dining area features glowing hardwood floors and plenty of room for multiple furniture layouts—and it’s all framed by a lovely bay window overlooking leafy 44th Street. Your plants will thrive with abundant natural light streaming through windows trimmed in original woodwork. The rear bedroom offers generous floor space, huge closets, and a bright en-suite bathroom with a tiled tub and an in-unit stacked washer/dryer. Live just one block from Clark Park—home to the beloved year-round farmers’ market, Shakespeare in Clark Park, and endless neighborhood gatherings. Stroll to The Woodlands for jogging paths, dog-friendly green space, and some of the prettiest tree canopy in the city. Local favorites like Green Line Café, Dottie’s Donuts, Abyssinia, Local 44, and Marigold Kitchen are all close by, along with grocery options and small boutiques that define the 44th Street corridor. You’ll also enjoy easy street parking, excellent public transit access, and bike-friendly streets. Walkable to Penn, Drexel, HUP, CHOP, and the University of the Sciences/USciences campus—this condo hits the sweet spot of charm, convenience, and community. With low monthly fees and an unbeatable location, this is not your typical one-bedroom home.
