A rare offering in Graduate Hospital, this extra-wide, stand-alone corner home features a beautifully restored historic façade as well as a huge bay with original details. Measuring over 26 feet across, the home’s exterior has been meticulously preserved and enhanced with brand-new Pella Architectural Series windows, blending timeless character with modern efficiency. Alongside the residence sits a 15-foot side yard — a fully buildable lot at 907 S 25th Street — complete with a legal curb cut that could accommodate up to two cars parked front-to-back. The additional space, with its established landscaping and custom-designed storage shed serves as a private oasis - a true rarity in the neighborhood. Step through the front vestibule and you’re greeted by an expansive living and dining space anchored by a charming brick fireplace and dramatic extra-wide staircase. High ceilings amplify the sense of openness, while the thoughtful flow of the first floor makes entertaining effortless. A convenient half bath is tucked on this level as well. At the rear, a brand-new butler’s pantry connects the living space to the kitchen. Outfitted with a wet bar, breakfast counter, and stylish storage, it’s the perfect transition space. A new oversized Pella casement window provides a view of the flagstone patio and lush garden. The sun-filled kitchen has been updated with a brand-new slide-in stove, Arabescato Oro quartz countertops, a modern backsplash, and open shelving that balances form and function. Upstairs, the stately staircase leads to three bright bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry room. The primary suite boasts a walk-in closet and tall elegant windows while the second and third bedrooms enjoy ample natural light from bay and side windows. The full-size basement, with high ceilings and already upgraded with a French drain system and new slab floor offers tremendous potential to create even more living space in the future. Located in the heart of Graduate Hospital, this home enjoys the best of both neighborhood charm and city convenience. Walk to beloved local spots like Sidecar and Grace Tavern, as well as new favorites along Washington Avenue such as Aldi, Breezy’s Deli, and Small Oven Bakery. A short stroll brings you to the expanded Schuylkill River Trail, perfect for walking, running, or biking. Major employers like CHOP, Penn, and the VA Hospital are an easy walk or bike ride away. With a welcoming community, strong public schools, and easy access to Center City, this rare detached home with parking and a separate lot represents an incredible opportunity not to be missed.
