About this home
Introducing Cambridge House, a rare 22-foot-wide historic brownstone masterfully restored for modern living. Originally designed in 1868 as the private mansion of Charles Psotta of the Bergdoll & Psotta City Park Brewery, this architectural gem stands among a distinguished row of four grand brownstones once owned by Philadelphia’s famed beer barons.
Soaring 13-foot ceilings, original architectural embellishments, and extraordinary proportions define the home’s timeless grandeur. The Townhouse (Unit A) offers approximately 3,600 square feet of impeccably refurbished living space, plus an additional 1,500-square-foot basement with 9-foot ceilings framed by striking exposed white brick arches.
The entire second floor is dedicated to living and entertaining on an impressive scale. A grand formal living room flows seamlessly into an intimate den, while the sleek eat-in kitchen—appointed with Bertazzoni appliances—opens to a formal dining room featuring a custom wet bar worthy of the most discerning host. A private outdoor deck completes the level.
Upstairs, the third floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a spectacular primary suite with a spa-like wet room, double shower, and an oversized walk-in closet rarely found in city living. A full bath and conveniently relocated laundry room complete this floor. The top level presents a spacious fourth bedroom with flexible open space ideal for a home office, creative studio, or private guest retreat.
The expansive lower level, currently outfitted as a home gym and storage area, provides exceptional ceiling height and the opportunity to create additional finished living space.
As an added convenience, the seller will provide one year of prepaid parking at a private covered garage located just three homes away.
The home is located in the Fairmount neighborhood of Philadelphia, which boasts delicious eateries and independent boutiques. Nestled in the heart of the Art Museum Area, Fairmount offers a sophisticated blend of historic charm and urban culture just steps from the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Barnes Foundation. Enjoy direct proximity to the sprawling trails and scenic waterfront of Fairmount Park.
This property is a rare offering where historic significance meets contemporary luxury....
