About this property

1918 Duplex with Character City Center

  • Summary:

    Stay in a charming bi-level duplex where historic character meets modern comfort. Enjoy a cozy fireplace, skylit kitchen, and a spacious private deck with beautiful city views. Relax with coffee or tea outdoors, unwind in the inviting living area, and explore nearby parks, restaurants, and local attractions. This unique space offers an authentic Philadelphia experience with stylish touches and modern amenities, perfect for both short and long-term stays.



    The Space:

    This historic 1910 Philadelphia duplex offers the charm and character of an early 20th-century city home in a prime walkable location. You're just minutes from University City, Rittenhouse Square, Chinatown, Queen Village, and more. Restaurants, Whole Foods, bars, shopping, and a dog park are all nearby, with a 24/7 parking garage just down the street.



    Our duplex was built in 1910, and we’ve intentionally preserved many of the original architectural details that give historic Philadelphia homes their character. Staying here means experiencing a classic city property rather than a modern, newly built apartment.



    Because of the building’s age, you may notice a few features common in historic homes:



    • Some floors are slightly uneven due to the original construction

    • Certain ceilings are sloped because of the historic layout

    • Plumbing systems may drain more slowly than in newer buildings



    Many guests love the charm and personality of older homes, but if you prefer the feel of a newly built modern apartment, another listing may be a better fit.



    The Neighborhood:

    Will update soon.



    Other Things to Note:

    ★ PLEASE NOTE BEFORE BOOKING.



    We aim to keep a good neighbor policy at all costs and can't stress our house rules enough. Please no smoking, parties or get togethers are allowed at our units.



    Quiet hours are written in the house rules.



    We love redecorating and are constantly changing decorations and making improvements, so the unit may have some differences from what is shown in the pictures.
