Victorian details galore will greet you at this almost-3000 s.f. semi-detached home in the Spruce Hill section of West Philly’s University City – plus, it’s in the catchment area for the high-performing Penn Alexander K-8 public school.* The home’s well-maintained exterior includes original columns and railings on the open porch, fish scale shingles on the side bays, and a 4-color paint scheme – there’s no ugly modern plastic siding anywhere. The c.1902 interior décor includes a living room mantle and a bay with a window seat and leaded glass; interior shutters on the dining room bay, unpainted woodwork, oak flooring and a handsome staircase to upper levels. The custom kitchen is open to the really big dining room, making a great entertaining space. A half bath and rear storage room complete the 1st floor, and outside, there’s a front garden and a fenced private rear yard edged with garden beds. Upstairs, the 2nd floor front room could be a glamorous large bedroom but it works best as it was originally designed: as a family room, featuring double doors with leaded glass, a bay of windows to bring in the sunshine, and a decorative fireplace. Two other bedrooms on this floor are interconnected; the main bedroom includes a deep and glorious 3-door armoire, and the bath is a mixture of old and new. The 3rd floor has three more bedrooms, another bath and an in-law kitchen which a future owner may want to turn into a laundry room if they aren’t sharing the house with relatives. The 45th St. location between Osage & Larchwood Avenues is just 1.5 blocks from Baltimore Avenue, West Philly’s main street where you’ll find an eclectic mix of small restaurants, bars & shops, plus two large parks. Also on Baltimore, you can catch the #34 trolley (recently renamed T-2) for a 15-minute ride to the heart of center city Philadelphia, with stops at UPenn, Drexel U and the 30th St. Station transportation hub along the way. *Catchment area location doesn’t guarantee admission.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
