Still Renting in Center City? Own Wash West Character With 12-Foot Ceilings for $199,999. Seller is offering a $3,000 credit with an accepted offer, and you choose how to use it: closing costs, a year of parking, or condo fees. Pick the one that gets you in the door. If you already rent in Washington Square West, you know this neighborhood. Vedge is around the corner. The Kimmel Center is a short walk. Washington Square and Rittenhouse Square bookend the blocks, so you have two of the city’s best green spaces to choose from on any given morning. Restaurants, theaters, parks, and the energy of Center City are all within a few blocks, and the car stays parked. Commute outside the city? SEPTA and PATCO are right at the corner. Here is what changes when you own it. The building is a piece of Philadelphia history, a stately early 20th-century structure whose facade still carries the script of George T. Sale. Inside, 12-foot ceilings and hardwood floors deliver the architectural character this neighborhood is known for, the kind no new rental building can reproduce at this price. The open floor plan adapts to how you live. The living area flows into an open kitchen, keeping daily life easy and uncluttered. The full bath keeps its vintage charm with a 1920s pedestal sink, tub, and storage. The bedroom is bright and large enough for a California king with side tables, and the California Closet system makes the most of every inch. A shared backyard gives you a quiet retreat, and a private entry from Irving Street alley keeps comings and goings simple. Budgeting is simpler than renting. The condo fee includes heat, water, and in-building laundry, so your monthly number is predictable and there are no surprise utility bills. At $199,999, this is a real Philadelphia address in a neighborhood where people want to be, at a price that makes ownership possible. Old-world craftsmanship. Real neighborhood. Real value. Your name on the deed. No short-term rentals permitted.
