320 Race St , #B

Philadelphia, PA 19106

It doesn't get any more "Old City" than this! Built in 1854, this 2 bed, 2 full bath condo unit is a historically certified building that once housed Saxe Paper Company with the faded signage still visible on the brick facade. Check out the building's entire fascinating history on HiddenCityPhila (2015/04/a-slim-and-sturdy-survivor-on-race-street/). In 2002, this 5-story building was converted into a 5-unit condominium; commercial space on the first floor (currently an Art Gallery), and one residential unit per floor above. Unit B is the entire second floor, which is situated high enough to overlook Orianna Street; a narrow alley paved with Belgium blocks. This apartment features 12-foot ceilings (WOW!), exposed brick, original wood beams, natural hardwood floors, and an open-style galley kitchen with SS appliances and gas cooking. Perhaps the most impressive feature is the enormous Cathedral-Style windows, which were just replaced in 2019; FLOODING this corner unit with natural light (Western exposure). If you require parking, you'll be pleased to know there is a parking garage two doors down with availability but this perfect Old City location is walkable to just about everything! HOA Fees are low because the small Condo Building is self-managed. This home has the WOW FACTOR, so schedule your showing ASAP!
