Lea School Catchment area!* Farragut St. is a sweet little block between 46th & 47th Sts., and Locust & Spruce Sts, in the Walnut Hill section of University City/ West Philly.

This 3-story townhouse in the post-Victorian Colonial Revival style has c.1911 period details galore! A striking entry vestibule, glimmering leaded glass in windows and doors, original woodwork, lovely oak flooring with decorative borders, red and yellow pine flooring, and a handsome curving staircase. The eat-in kitchen was beautifully rehabbed with a Bosch 5-burner gas range and other stainless steel appliances, granite countertops in a carefully chosen peach-red-brown color combo, pecan-colored cabinets and an exposed brick wall.

Out back, the long, private rear yard showcases a gorgeous yellow magnolia tree. Upstairs, there are 7 rooms bedrooms and/or plenty of places to spread out for work-at-home and other uses. Two ceramic tile baths. The 4th floor attic has a tall, usable space which many nearby neighbors have converted to a home office or play area.

*The University of Pennsylvania recently formalized its relationship with the Henry Lea K-8 public school which will bring new resources and strengths to Lea over the next five years. Lea has a small catchment area, and this block of Farragut St. is included.
