Property Description

Unique opportunity to purchase a fully renovated, 28-foot wide historic townhouse on storied Clinton Street with a 2-bedroom condominium connected to the main house through a private courtyard. Built in 1848 for a prominent Philadelphia lawyer & politician, Thomas Sergeant, and his wife Sarah (granddaughter of Benjamin Franklin), it was expanded and renovated in 1901 for the Baily Family, and then years later used and operated as "The Columns on Clinton" bed & breakfast before undergoing a complete renovation/restoration in 2016 by the current Seller. The first level is striking, with high ceilings, herringbone floors, three fireplaces (2 wood-burning), and many original details. The living room features modern built-ins and an archway (pocket door) that leads into the dining room and adjacent kitchen. The kitchen was thoughtfully designed with custom cabinetry and Amuneal brass and walnut shelving, quartz counters, and high-end appliances, including a La Cornue range and hood. French doors off the dining room lead to the landscaped courtyard shared with the included condo. At the center of the house is the grand staircase, which is illuminated by natural light from the stained glass skylight at the top. A conveniently tucked away powder room is located at the landing between the 1st and 2nd levels. The 2nd level of this home is the primary suite with a spacious bedroom, an ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub, seamless glass walk-in shower, two custom vanities, and heated floors. Off of the bathroom is a walk-in closet with custom built-ins and a smartly concealed washer and dryer. Also on this level is an additional room with a handsomely built wardrobe, accessed directly from the bedroom and hallway, for use as a dressing room, home office, or nursery. Mural Art by Miriam Singer, installations at PHL and on SEPTA buses. The third level of this home features three bedrooms and a hall bathroom with a bathtub/shower, tile surround, and a vintage-style trough sink with triple faucets. The top level is multi-purposed and lends itself as a guest suite, playroom, and rec room. The main room has vaulted ceilings, a kitchenette, an adjacent bathroom, and a separate bedroom. An Ipe roof deck with city views, outdoor speakers, a gas line, and a water bib can be accessed through the top level. A fully finished basement completes this home, with access from Clinton Street and the rear courtyard. Other features include multi-system/zones HVAC, radiant flooring, In-ceiling speakers throughout, Crestron smart home system and lighting, and a state-of-the-art Security system with installed cameras. An EV parking space & charging station is located directly outside this property. The Seller leases a parking space on the block and will pay for 1 year of parking there. The condo is deeded separately as 925 Pine Street, Unit 2. It is over 1100 SF on three levels and features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, plus a loft. The condo fee is $350/month. This is an excellent opportunity for multi-generational living, an au-pair/guest suite, or use as an income-producing unit. This prime Washington Square West location is within a few blocks of Segar Park and Whole Foods & Acme and is surrounded by some of the best neighborhood restaurants and local shops. Also convenient to Pennsylvania Hospital & Jefferson Medical. Located in the McCall Elementary School catchment.
