846 N 24TH StreetPhiladelphia, PA 19130

Walk into this beautifully renovated four-bedroom, two-bath Fairmount home featuring a finished basement, stunning west-facing roof deck, custom laundry room, and a one-of-a-kind outdoor chef’s kitchen complete with a wood-fired pizza oven.

The interior of this Fairmount gem shines with contemporary upgrades as well as original, architectural grace. Millwork in the front vestibule entry, window trim, stairwell and other moldings maintain this 1920 home’s historical integrity. Its wide-open first floor features 21st century wood flooring extending through the living and dining areas. The kitchen offers Carrara marble countertops with contrasting backsplash, a breakfast bar, and all new or recent stainless steel, Viking appliances. Upstairs are two large bedrooms that share a hall bath and a smaller bedroom or office. The finished basement holds a TV and casual dining area, as well as plenty of space for storage. The third level has a main bedroom suite with large, luxury bath featuring a skylight, shower for two, and entrance to a stunning roof deck.

A 2014 renovation took the house down to the studs, creating its finished basement and ensuite third floor. Upgrades completed between 2020 and 2023 include: the installation of a living room gas fireplace built out with marble tile in minimalist design; renovated back patio with slate flagstone floor and rebuilt walls and doors; a first floor, outdoor chef’s kitchen and dining area, including a hand-built, wood-fired pizza oven, three professional-grade gas burners, sink, prep table, and refrigerator; remodeled master bathroom; laundry area cabinets and countertops; and a large roof deck made of Tech composite material that faces west with unobstructed sunset views.

This Fairmount-area street is filled with wonderful people, block parties, dinners with neighbors, and a shared appreciation for the magic of Art Museum Area living. 846 N. 24th Street is just blocks from Fairmount Avenue, Parkway museums, coffee shops, restaurants and a short drive or healthy walk to Whole Foods.
