Property Description

There are homes with character, and there are buildings with provenance. Built in 1845 for the Kensington Fire Company, 308-10 Richmond Street is a singular former firehouse set on a rare 35-foot-wide double lot near Penn Treaty Park and the Delaware River. Its brick facade, original firehouse doors and marble inscription establish an immediate connection to the building's history, while its detached form and tucked-away setting offer a degree of privacy that is almost unheard of in Fishtown. Inside, the three-story residence retains original heart pine floors and stairs, exposed timber beams, generous ceiling heights, period millwork and rooms shaped by nearly two centuries of use. The existing three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home is immediately livable, but the larger opportunity is what makes this property exceptional: the chance to preserve its history while creating something entirely personal. A landscaped courtyard beneath mature trees forms a protected garden at the center of the property, while the front garage, gated driveway and expansive rear garage/workshop provide substantial parking, storage and flexible space for a studio, workshop, collection or creative practice. The relationship between the ground floor and courtyard presents compelling potential for more intentional indoor-outdoor living, and the space above the rear garage may offer additional architectural opportunity, subject to review and approvals. Penn Treaty Park and the riverfront are moments away, with Frankford Avenue's restaurants, shops and energy within easy reach. Private, useful and genuinely one of a kind, 308-10 Richmond is less a conventional Fishtown home than a historic urban compound – with land, parking, workspace and a remarkable next chapter still to be written.
