A Rare Federal-Period Treasure in the Heart of Fishtown For the buyer who believes a home should have a story to tell, this extraordinary Federal-period residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Philadelphia history on one of Fishtown’s most desirable blocks. Grand in both scale and character, this six-bedroom home is filled with the kind of architectural craftsmanship and period details that make historic-home lovers stop in their tracks. From the moment you enter through the beautiful double doors into the gracious entry foyer, you know this is no ordinary Philadelphia home. Soaring 10- to 11-foot ceilings create an incredible sense of volume throughout, while beautifully maintained hardwood floors, rich dark wood moldings and original architectural details bring warmth an d character to every room. The large formal sitting room feels especially impressive, offering the scale and elegance of another era. Continue into the living and dining spaces, where intricate plaster crown moldings and ornate ceiling medallions showcase the craftsmanship of the home’s past. Brass wall sconces add another layer of old-world charm, while the home's rear servant staircase is an increasingly rare architectural detail and a wonderful reminder of the home's history. With six bedrooms, the possibilities are remarkable. Create beautiful guest rooms, private offices, a library, studio, dressing room or whatever suits your lifestyle while preserving the grandeur and character that make this home so special. The large unfinished basement provides abundant storage and additional possibilities, while the fenced rear yard creates a private outdoor retreat in the middle of the city. And then there is the location. Fishtown has become one of Philadelphia’s most exciting neighborhoods while still holding onto the history and personality that make it distinctly Philadelphia. Just northeast of Center City and along the Delaware River, the neighborhood is known for its incredible collection of restaurants, cafés, independent shops, galleries, nightlife and live music venues. Frankford and Girard Avenues have become destinations of their own, putting some of the city's most talked-about dining and entertainment within the neighborhood. For a little green space, Fishtown offers charming Palmer Park along Frankford Avenue as well as historic Penn Treaty Park on the Delaware River, where residents can enjoy open lawns, walking paths, river views and views toward the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. This is a home for someone who appreciates what cannot easily be replicated—the height of the ceilings, the substantial woodwork, the plaster moldings, the medallions, the hardwood floors, the gracious room proportions and the unmistakable feeling of history. Not simply a house, but a piece of old Philadelphia waiting for its next steward.
