About This Property

In West Philly's University City, the opportunity to buy a condominium the size of a house doesn’t come up very often, so take note! #B210 at Garden Court is now available, and at 1821 sf, it’s larger than most 2-story Philadelphia row houses. Its room-sized entry foyer leads to a large living room on the left and a big dining room or family room on the right, each with a full wall of windows. The current owner rehabbed the kitchen, adding granite countertops, sleek cabinets with whimsical handles, and high-end appliances (Fisher & Paykel fridge, Bosch DW). Pantry storage has been tucked into a previously awkward corner space. A small balcony off the kitchen provides access to fresh air, trash removal and the fire escape. There are 3 bedrooms, 2+1/2 updated original baths, a Bosch washer & dryer, ceiling fans and multiple huge walk-in closets. Many of the unit’s windows are recent energy-efficient historically appropriate wooden windows, as required by the building’s Philadelphia historic façade easement. Garden Court was designed by West Philadelphia developer Clarence Siegel in the 1920s in the gracious “pre-war” style which includes oversized bay windows, decorative fireplaces and hardwood flooring. Its classic bathrooms feature leaded glass windows, ceramic tile floors and Vitrolite glass walls. When it was built, the complex was offered as a 6-story luxury apartment development for residents who didn’t want the hassle of taking care of a house. Converted to condos in 1994, it still fills that hassle-free housing spot today. Condo amenities include a glamorous indoor year-round swimming pool, exercise room, library, meeting room, indoor bike storage, and outdoor space with fountains and koi ponds in two gated courtyards. The location is just six blocks west of the University of Pennsylvania and close to public transportation, nearby restaurants and coffee shops.
