House of the week: A three-story brick home in Graduate Hospital for $675,000
The three-bedroom home is in the Edwin M. Stanton School catchment.
When they added them up, Robin and Andy Glass counted 11 children under age 4 on the block where, in 2018, they were considering a three-story rowhouse on a quiet street.
The couple had been renting in Washington Square West when they bought the three-bedroom, 2½-bathroom house that summer.
And for their two boys, now aged 8 and 6, they liked being in the Edwin M. Stanton School catchment area.
It was also convenient to Robin’s job in admissions at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and Andy’s job in nonprofit lending at Wells Fargo.
“We’re staying in the neighborhood,” Robin said, moving four blocks away to a larger house, also in the Stanton catchment.
There are hardwood floors throughout the 2,070-square-foot house.
The first floor has a living room, dining room, and kitchen, with access to the back patio.
The kitchen area has a pantry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a tiled backsplash, and a center island with seating. The view out the window over the kitchen sink is the backyard with its white privacy fence.
The second floor has two bedrooms, a hallway linen closet, and a full bathroom. One of the bedrooms has an alcove suitable for a home office and a shared hallway bathroom with a shower/tub combination, custom tile, and a vanity.
The third floor has the primary suite with direct access to the roof deck. The bathroom has a walk-in closet, a walk-in tiled shower, an extra linen closet, and a jetted soaking tub.
The fully finished basement with a half bathroom and extra living space could be converted to a fourth bedroom, fitness center, media room, or office. It contains a Murphy Bed.
The HVAC system was replaced about two years ago.
The house is listed by Jenn Geddes of KW Empower for $675,000.
