Calling all soulful green thumbs- I have 2 distinctive units available at Lewis Court, 1 of 8 of the original Fishtown Courts.* This one-of-a-kind trinity-style home offers character and history you won't find in new construction. Built when Fishtown was actually a fishing village in the turn of the 17th century, this property embraces its past while offering modern updates for today's lifestyle. Gated space with 4 units share a back yard that is ripe for gardeners and peaceful readers alike. Grill and chill on weekends or work from a private outdoor space during the week.
The 3 bedrooms are connected by a total of 4 staircases as this unit was once 2 back in the Olden Times. Updated with modern conveniences like washer/dryer in basement (not shared), stainless steel kitchen appliances, granite countertops and dishwasher but still has old world charm with rounded staircases and a clawfoot tub.
Pets: Encouraged but must get along with children and other animals and be young enough to manage steep stairs, $35/month per pet
Utilities: Tenant pays electric & gas; water flat fee $50/person
This is the perfect home for someone seeking more than just four walls history, charm, and a truly unique vibe await.
*From a 2013 blog article "Eight courts remain intact in the immediate area of Fishtown. They sat back about fifteen (15) feet from the curb with a step up before reaching the front steps. They too were "father, son, holy ghost" houses."
12 month lease or longer. Private landlord. Application fee $47. First months rent and 2 months security required prior to move in. Tenant pays gas and electric and a monthly flat fee of $50 for water for the first person and $25 additional for each additional user.
