Located on a quiet wooded lot in Germantown, 51 E Penn Street is a 5-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home listed for $725,000. Built in 1900 and designed by George T. Pearson, the house blends Victorian and Aesthetic design, offering over 4,580 square feet of space on a 0.68-acre lot. It’s within walking distance of Germantown Avenue, two train stations, and just a 20-minute drive to Center City.

The home’s standout features include original stained-glass windows, detailed woodwork, and a grand entryway with a stained-glass panel above the door. The living room has a fireplace with unique tilework, and the dining room includes a built-in cabinet with leaded glass panels. A starry night coffered ceiling on the second-floor landing adds a touch of character to the home.

Large windows throughout the house bring in natural light and offer views of the surrounding greenery. The spacious lot includes private off-street parking and outdoor space for gardening or relaxing.

The kitchen and bathrooms provide an opportunity for updates to suit your style, while recent improvements like a new roof, gutters, HVAC, and hot water system ensure the home is in great shape.
