This Artist’s Million Dollar Rittenhouse Home Is On the Market

Guess who it belongs to.

#1ST/2D, 1821 Spruce St, Philadelphia, PA, 19103

What would you do with this Edwardian-detailed home? (No kidding, it has walnut woodwork, leaded glass windows, plaster moldings on the ceiling, and, of course, original hardwood floors with inlaid details. Also, a handful of wood-burning fireplaces.)

Consider this: the property is actually two distinct units, which are currently connected via a “secret passageway” that can be sealed off easily to make a closet. If choosing to keep it whole, you get a 3-bedroom. Separate them and someone gets a 1-bedroom with an artist’s studio. Speaking of which…

the home has had a prominent owner for the past couple of years: modernist painter Mark Innerst.  How cool is that? You can see some of his works here.
