Art Museum Penthouse for Less Than $1 Million

Here now, From Curbed Marketplace, highlighting an intriguing pick from that spot at the top of the page that rotates listings and makes real estate junkies refresh and refresh and refresh the page until the trackpad is dotted with blood.

The Philadelphian has always seemed to be in an awkward spot—plopped down on Pennsylvania Avenue, on the Parkway but off the Parkway. The apartments in the building, though, have terrific views of our city's version of the Champs-Élysées, and this one in particular looks down upon the Art Museum's beautiful green roof. The Philadelphian's amenities serve to minimize whatever location-related inconvenience residents might feel. There's an on-site dry cleaner, pharmacy, diner, hair salon, gym and grocery store. Best of all, there's a shuttle that ferries residents across the city. Size: 2 beds, 2 baths, 1,741 square feet
Price: $775,000
· Listing: 2401 Pennsylvania Ave. [Zillow]
