This handsome and spacious 4 bedroom, 2+1/2 bath condo in the elegant 1920s Garden Court condominium complex is a rare offering indeed! Of the 117 condo units in eight buildings, only 9 units are larger than 2300 square feet - and at 2389 sf, H210 is one of just 5 in the very largest size of all. It's been five years since any of these 9 super-units has been available for sale. A wide center hall leads to the living room, where a 5-window bay overlooks the stunning entry courtyard. There is a decorative fireplace, and the flooring throughout the unit is the original gleaming golden oak. The dining room is large enough to seat a crowd, and down the hall, a small room, designed in the era of live-in maids, can be used as a bedroom or study. The attached half bath includes laundry hook-ups. The inner hallway leads to a standard-layout galley kitchen in need of a makeover - a new dishwasher sits in its box, as a start. The balcony by the kitchen provides fresh air. The private area of the unit features three big bedrooms, many large closets including walk-ins, and two signature Garden Court baths with original 1920s floor tile, stained glass windows, and marble walls. Outside, the gated, landscaped courtyard with a fountain, koi ponds and sitting areas is an amazing front yard, and condo amenities include a gorgeous indoor swimming pool for year-round use, an exercise room, a library and a community room. The location is in the very heart of University City, West Philly. Furniture is available for purchase.
