About this House

1890 Brick Twin • Walk to Downtown Lansdowne • Spacious Front Porch • Stained Glass • Original Woodwork • 3-plus Bedrooms • 0.17 Acres There is something special about an old house with a story to tell, and 59 Fairview Ave has plenty of chapters waiting to be written. Built in 1890, this substantial brick twin offers 2,275 square feet, three-plus bedrooms, one full bath, a one-car garage, and bonus rooms that could be transformed into something uniquely your own (bedrooms 4-5, plus a full bath? Or a huge Primary Suite?). Step inside and you'll find the craftsmanship of another era in the stained glass, delicately carved woodwork, and original, wide-plank peg-and-board hardwood floors. An enormous gracious entry foyer greets you, with a large Living Room to the left. A bright and expansive newer Kitchen and Breakfast Room to the right creates amazing space for family gatherings. The kitchen adds modern convenience with granite countertops and sleek appliances. Upstairs, the Primary Bedroom is quite large and features a massive walk-in closet. Two amply-sized bedrooms, a full bath, and an enormous hall closet complete this floor. The third floor is your blank canvas: a new Primary Suite, a home theater, or a couple of extra bedrooms and a new bathroom; it's currently a warren of 3 rooms under eaves and a large hall closet. The kitchen, bath, roof, windows, and HVAC are only 15 years old - all the expensive items done. All it needs is some imagination for the third floor. Out front, the spacious wrap-around porch sets the stage for slow Sunday morning coffee, afternoon conversations, or simply enjoying the rhythm of the neighborhood. The 0.17-acre lot adds room to breathe, while the one-car garage provides valuable storage and parking. Best of all, downtown Lansdowne is within walking distance, putting local shops, new eateries and coffee shops, the Saturday open-air farmers' market, and the beautifully renovated Lansdowne Theater close at hand. The Historic Village of Lansdowne offers a vibrant cultural scene, including performances by the award-winning Lansdowne Symphony Orchestra and an eclectic mix of independent shops and award-winning restaurants. With convenient regional rail service and easy access to Philadelphia, Lansdowne offers a welcoming small-town feel just minutes from University City, Philadelphia International Airport, and I-476. It is a place where historic character, community energy, small-town vibe, and city access come together in a setting that feels wonderfully removed from the everyday rush. For those drawn to architectural character and the satisfaction of a well-built, older home, this is an opportunity with genuine charm and possibilities. Rarely does a home offer this much original character alongside major systems that are only about 15 years old, creating an exciting opportunity to preserve the craftsmanship of the past while shaping the spaces for the way you live today.
