A rare find near Rittenhouse Square: 900 square feet of living space in a historic corner building, with in-unit washer and dryer included. You will face the... picture perfect colonial Addison Street, lined with historic trees and romantic lighting.
Built in 1854, the home has the character to prove it: tall ceilings, oversized windows on two exposures, hardwood floors, and classic cast iron radiator heating from a central gas boiler that keeps the unit warm and quiet all winter. A half bath off the living area means you and your guests never compete for one bathroom.
The bedroom is generously sized with a private en-suite bath. Wall-mounted AC for summer. Ground-floor entry means no hauling anything up narrow stairs.
You are steps from Rittenhouse Square. Walk to supermarkets, restaurants, coffee shops, and bars without crossing a major street. SEPTA bus routes on Walnut and Spruce, Broad Street Line a short walk east.
