About This Home
This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom townhouse at 3008 POPLAR Street in PHILADELPHIA, PA is listed for $449,000 ($363 per sqft). Built in 1881, the home offers 1,238 sqft of living space on a 0.02 acres lot.
Fairmount Park and Lemon Hill playground are at the corner! West Girard Avenue's popular Brewerytown commercial corridor is only 3 blocks away! This sweet Fairmount townhouse on tree-lined Poplar Street combines charming traditional style (pine flooring, a decorative mantle, the original bedroom armoire, a clawfoot tub and a bay of windows) with a recent kitchen, 1+1/2 recent baths, and loads of mechanical upgrades.
Wide pocket doors between the living room & dining room give the first floor an open feel, and a dining room built-in that matches the kitchen cabinets provides loads of extra storage space. A half bath is tucked into a corner. The kitchen has granite countertops, sleek white cabinets and stainless steel appliances.
The rear addition is a smart spot for a home office. Out back, there's a deck with wide views of neighboring green spaces and Fairmount Park, plus a tall below-deck storage area and easy rear alley access for bike storage. The second floor has two good-sized bedrooms and a very spacious bath with double sinks and a luxury shower in addition to the clawfoot soaking tub.
The clean, unfinished basement is currently used as a work and play space, with plenty of room for storage & the washer & dryer. Recent upgrades include a top of the line energy efficient HVAC system installed in 2023, and extensive electrical updating with all knob & tube wiring removed.
