Welcome to this historically designated brownstone ? J.J. Morton House located within the protected Spring Garden Historic District. As you approach the building you will be immediately drawn to the exterior Italianate architecture and original interior details including extensive wood work, tile, and trim throughout all the common areas. This second floor unit has seven (7) over-sized windows facing North, South, and East which provide an abundance of sunlight throughout the day. Once inside your apartment you'll find no shortage of original features; hand carved wood finishes, 12 inch baseboards, crown molding, chestnut doors, original wood blinds/shutters and wide plank hardwood flooring, exposed brick, 8 foot windows, and 11 foot ceilings. The apartment has two expansive bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Currently the owners are using the living room as a formal dining space and utilizing the 2nd bedroom as a living room/guest room. The included brand new stackable washer and dryer was just purchased in 2016. The original wood blinds fold into the wall and are an excellent way of keeping out the light while sleeping, as well as allowing maximum light in without the need for expensive window treatments. The open concept kitchen has stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash and granite countertops. The unit has three generously sized closets included a walk-in closet in the master suite. The bedrooms are located on opposite sides of the apartment giving you maximum privacy and space utilization. The building has private storage lockers in the basement, and a shared common courtyard with community outdoor furniture and grill, and a brand new roof installed in 2016. Literally located right in the heart of Fairmount you'll be within walking distance to all the area has to offer; shopping, restaurants, Eastern State Penitentiary, community gardens, parks, public transportation within 1 block, and the brand new "Green Street Dog Park" just half a block away! Additional local amenities include a quick 5 minute walk to the new Whole Foods Market, and the many museums lining the Parkway. Monthly HOA fee of $295 includes private trash pickup, general building maintenance and operations, water/sewer, common area electric and insurance.
