Description

A vibrant garden, mature trees, and lush shrubbery create a picturesque setting on one of Philly's most iconic blocks at 2308 Saint Albans Street. Currently laid out as a duplex with a studio and 2-bed unit, this 3-story, 2,374 sq ft property could be kept as is, renovated by a future owner-occupant looking to subsidize their mortgage, or transformed into a one-of-a-kind single-family residence overflowing with original character. A peaceful courtyard lined with pridefully kept homes leads to the handsome brick exterior. A transom window tops the main entry door that opens to a shared foyer adorner with intricate millwork. The first-floor unit is framed by gleaming hardwood floors and high ceilings that create a bright, airy feel. Natural light pours into the mini kitchen at the front, while an archway at the center helps divide the large open space, allowing for various living and sleeping layouts. A full bathroom is at the rear, and there are stairs down to the building's basement. Out back, there's a private patio with access to a small street, perfect for creating a garden oasis to host barbecues or relax with a glass of wine. From the entry foyer, an ornate staircase leads to the bi-level 2-bed unit, where you'll find a bright, full kitchen with a set of bay windows. Hardwood floors stretch from the large dining room, trimmed with chair rail, to the huge living room, anchored by a fireplace mantle. Upstairs, a large sunlit bedroom is at the front. A second spacious bedroom, a laundry closet, and a full bathroom complete the level. In addition to 2308 Saint Albans Street's idyllic setting, its fantastic Graduate Hospital location earns a Walk Score of 93! Sprawling Rittenhouse Square and the extensive Schuylkill River Trail are both a short stroll away. Friendly cafes and popular restaurants fill the neighborhood, plus nearby South St is lined with markets and shops. There's also easy access to public transit, Grays Ferry Ave, Washington Ave, I-76, and The University of Penn. Schedule your showing today!

Absolutely cannot have anything delivered and not have it stolen...almost every other door has a note saying do not leave Any packages, yet the Amazon drop box areas are full and to get a PO box there are long waitlists...it is very frustrating."

    "I moved to Philadelphia from the United Kingdom just over a year ago. I spent almost two months getting to know various neighborhoods at different times during the day. I was impressed with the “vibe” of Graduate Hospital - people of different ages and ethnicities, young families and people who have lived there for over 30 years. There are shops, restaurants and bars all within walking distance and the Marian Anderson rec center that was refurbished through donations from the neighborhood! It’s safe, easy to get almost anywhere in the city. I would highly recommend living here. "
