2730 Poplar St

Philadelphia, PA 19130

Original hardwood floors and classic Fairmount charm highlight 2730 Poplar Street. Enter to a cozy vestibule, missing in the more modern homes, but perfect for coats and shoes. Immediately at right is the living room highlighted by a floor to ceiling window at back for sunlight and high ceilings. Open floor plans are fine but often separated spaces are better. These rooms seem to unfold as you pass through them. Beyond the stair case and the half bath, you'll find the dining area and kitchen flanked by a wall of windows and glass. The rear patio doors bring natural light from this southern exposure. Spacious kitchen and oversized island perfect for food prep. Plenty of room for a 6-seat dining table. Patio allows you to take the party outside. Open space fills the sky at back with no buildings directly behind you and sight-lines that reach all the way to University City. (Your plants will love all this sun.) Ascend the well preserved stairs, notice the original bannister and railings, and see how the original hardwood floors are preserved upstairs as well. Large front bedroom with high ceilings and oversized closet. Middle bedroom perfect for nursery, fitness, or home office. Rear bedroom facing south also is perfect for those who need that natural light in the winter months. Don't miss the oversized full bath with walk-in shower and separate jacuzzi tub. Full, unfinished basement is dry and provides more storage than you should ever need. Short walk to Lemon Hill at Fairmount Park, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and all the restaurants and amenities of Fairmount Avenue. Owner relocating. Schedule your private showing or visit an open house this weekend!
