Property Description

1011 S. Farragut Terrace - a 5BR/3.5bath semidetached home with central air in the Penn Alexander School Catchment- is at once, unique, eclectic, traditional, modern, industrial, bold and understated in its composition, generous with its sensation of interior spaciousness, and deliberately conscious of our interconnectedness with the greater world. This coveted quaint street has a receiving line of 10 pairs of well dressed twin homes in the Queen Anne style (c. 1892) awaiting visitors and guest to this neighborly aisle. On the exterior of the home, garnished with a front garden with blossoms and a fruit bearing fig tree, find a large porch for conversations accented by tawny beige brick, and matte black wood trim. Step inside and be greeted by an ornate vestibule with classical French entry doors with leaded glass detail, which introduce us to a bright open concept contemporary living/dining/kitchen area. Antithetical to the customary, compartmentalized Queen Anne, the owners/residents/curators of this space have spent more than a decade reimagining the space's three stories to maximize its 20 ft width, and 10 foot ceilings, and abundant natural light, while giving consideration to utility and comfort. Flooring throughout the home, is a sustainable and eco-friendly maple hardwood with a blonde tonality reflective of natural light. A wood burning free-standing hearth with an extra wide fire box and clear glass door is an experience to see and feel on a cold winter night while reading by the fire light. An inconspicuous water closet/powder room is nestled in on the first level. Perhaps the most striking element of this home is the fully evolved chef's kitchen. A restaurant grade ventilation hood crowns a 6 burner gas Viking range with griddle, and double oven. A stainless steel backsplash, commercial pot filler, and butcher block countertop truly feels 'back of house' to bring out the inner Gordon Ramsey in us. The storage space available with mixed medium cabinetry is unrivaled, yet unobtrusive. An island with a natural bluestone countertop hosts the kitchen sink station as well as stool bound onlookers. Notice the rear wall has been predominately replaced with glass panels extending the connection with natural light. The rear features a sunroom, leading to a lovely deck constructed with genuine mahogany planking. Upstairs, the second level has three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a convenient laundry center. One of the bedrooms is the en suite, comprised of one full bathroom and spacious walk in closet. The East facing en suite bedroom has a beautiful Juliette balcony. The bathroom is bright, and roomy. Ascending to the third level, take note of the portal shaped skylight above the stair, then find two more bedrooms, a bathroom, and a large open lounge area bathed in sunlight. The home is fitted with two tankless water heaters for on demand hot water, as well as 300 amps of electrical service. Attention has been given to insulating exterior facing walls. There are two units for handling and distribution of the heating and air conditioning. This area has a walk score of 91 and is considered a walker's paradise. Close to Clark Park, University of the Pennsylvania, CHOP, University of the Sciences, Center City, the Amtrak station, Baltimore Avenue, and many restaurants and shopping experiences.
