Your client can create their dream house on one of the prettiest streets in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood. This diamond in the rough of 1665 square feet includes a main floor atrium - use it as a very private outdoor space; enclose it for a large dining room; build up on top of it and increase the interior square footage; put a deck on top of it! Many possibilities! The potential is amazing. You enter the house to a light filled entryway and then into a large living room with fireplace. Behind it is the open-air, glass-enclosed atrium, and behind it is a large kitchen area. There is a half-bath in the hall. The 2nd floor has a large bedroom and bath and opens to a catwalk to a light-filled study or bedroom also accessible from the hall. Create a beautiful master suite on the 3rd floor - a bedroom with an antique wood-burning stove, high ceilings and sky-light! Don't miss this gem of a house in a location that can't be beat!
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
