    Featuring a spectacular roof deck and timeless Philadelphia character, this 2-bedroom plus bonus room townhome is ideally located on one of Fairmount's most coveted tree-lined blocks, just steps from where Fairmount Ave. and Pennsylvania Ave. meet. A freshly painted facade with classic shutters and window boxes creates a welcoming first impression. The inviting living and dining rooms feature hardwood floors, two tall front windows, and a rear door opening to the patio. The beautifully updated kitchen offers soapstone countertops, a farmhouse sink, a stylish tile backsplash, recessed lighting, and a large window that fills the space with natural light. Just beyond the kitchen, the rear patio provides the perfect spot for grilling, morning coffee, or relaxing outdoors. Original stairs and railings add to the home's classic appeal as you head to the second floor, which offers a spacious front bedroom, full bath, and a generously sized bonus room, creating a layout that can work beautifully as a primary suite. This additional space provides excellent versatility as a home office, nursery, sitting room, guest space, or third bedroom. The refreshed full bath features classic tile, a shower and tub with glass doors, a wood vanity, and a sunlit window. Original hardwood floors add warmth and character throughout the upper levels. The entire third floor offers a stunning private retreat with a remarkably flexible layout, featuring a generously sized bedroom with plenty of additional space for a work-from-home area, sitting area, or both. Complete with exposed brick walls, two closets, and recessed lighting, this expansive space opens to stairs leading to the roof deck with panoramic skyline views. The low-maintenance decking and freshly painted railings create an exceptional outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining. The full unfinished basement features high ceilings, laundry, and valuable additional storage space. From neighborhood coffee shops and restaurants to parks and museums, everything that makes Fairmount one of Philadelphia's most beloved neighborhoods is just outside your door.
