Property Description
Experience a unique opportunity to own a piece of Philadelphia’s architectural heritage at 307 S. Chadwick Street. This historically designated home, reimagined by architect Frank Weise between 1954 and 2003, exemplifies mid-century modern and postmodern design. Upon his death, the building was completely restored, updated and maintained by his heirs. Originally a 19th-century carriage house, Weise transformed the structure with a tripartite facade. The central brick section, inspired by Louis Kahn, showcases rationalist elements, while the prominent batten-seam, terne-metal mansard (replaced in copper in 2005) introduces a bold postmodern touch. A deeply projecting metal cornice adds a distinctive flair, and even functional features, like the furniture hoisting boom, are thoughtfully incorporated. Configured as a duplex, the property features Frank Weise’s studio/offices on the lower levels, while the upper floors, accessible via a private entrance, comprise the main residence. In total, the property offers three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, providing versatile living spaces. A one-car carport adds convenience in this central location. Situated on the quaint Chadwick Street, once lined with carriage houses, the home provides a peaceful urban retreat with easy access to Rittenhouse Square’s amenities. This residence is more than just a home; it’s a living piece of art reflecting Philadelphia’s rich architectural evolution. Seize the chance to own a landmark property that harmoniously blends historical charm with modernist innovation. For inquiries and to schedule a private viewing, please contact us today.
