One-of-a-kind corner home blending modern design, original character, and thoughtful updates in the heart of Fitler Square, just steps from Fitler Square Park. The home's distinctive architecture immediately sets it apart, with a former exterior corner thoughtfully enclosed to expand the interior living space while preserving an original beam from the home's earlier design.
Inside, the spacious living room features high ceilings, crown molding, custom beechwood built-ins, and abundant natural light from the home's corner exposure. A unique fireplace hand-painted by a well-known local artist adds an artistic focal point. At the center of the main level, the staircase serves as an architectural anchor, naturally defining the living and dining areas while allowing the spaces to flow easily from one to the next. A remarkably large entry closet provides an abundance of storage, a rare find in a rowhouse.
Beyond the staircase, the dining area features a built-in beechwood china cabinet and opens to a thoughtfully designed kitchen with custom beechwood cabinetry, a center island, high-end appliances, a newer induction range, and a dedicated pantry. A conveniently located powder room completes the first level.
The second floor offers two bedrooms, an open den or office providing flexible additional living space, and a full bathroom. One of the bedrooms is currently open but could easily be closed off for additional privacy.
The third floor is dedicated to the primary suite, complete with custom wood closets, a full bathroom with a large walk-in shower and glass wall that allows for incredible natural light, and direct access to an expansive private deck. With wood flooring, custom iron railings, a pergola, and additional open space, the deck creates an incredible extension of the living area for relaxing or entertaining outdoors.
Solar panels enhance the home's energy efficiency, with electrical bills near zero. The basement provides ample storage, while an upgraded electrical system throughout and energy-efficient heating add to the home's thoughtful modern improvements. Set on a coveted Fitler Square corner at 24th and Waverly, just steps from the neighborhood's namesake park, 413 S 24th Street offers a rare combination of architectural character, artistic details, modern functionality, and private outdoor space in one of Philadelphia's most beloved neighborhoods.
