    What's special

    Three fireplacesOriginal woodworkGreat natural lightRooms with high ceilingsLarge windows
    Welcome, to this spacious home with 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths and with great natural light located on the corner of West Rittenhouse St and Wayne Ave. Centrally located in West Germantown, close to shopping and public transportation this property has a backyard that is fenced-in, offering a more private setting for the yard and patio. Built of Wissahickon Schist with three fireplaces, one wood, one electric and one decorative. Natural daylight via the large windows , rooms with high ceilings, original woodwork and hardwood floors throughout. Easily accessed walk-up with skylight to the attic space. The basement has a Bilco entrance for additional storage and workspace. This house was owned for many years by a artist who used one bedroom and the basement for studio space. There are two separate entrances to the backyard/patio with access to the garage-driveway area. Kitchen and baths need updating, but location, spaciousness within, and off street garage parking make this a diamond in the rough. At the back of the property are four connected garages, the first one closest to the street is the one that is deeded to 5900 Wayne along with a deeded easement that allows for the other garage owners to access their garages using the gravel driveway that crosses the back part of the rear yard. The driveway access is off of West Rittenhouse St near the corner. This house is within walking or a short car ride or public transportation to Mastery Charter School, The Waldorf School, Lingelbach Elementary, Philadelphia School for the Deaf, Penn Charter, Green St Friends and A. Wayne High School. Nearby are Planet Fitness and Weavers Way Coop. Ultimo Coffee Shop is right across the street.
