A palatial property in Queen Village that takes up half a city block is heading to the auction block in October with a starting bid of $850,000.
Sound like a steal? It kind of is, when you consider that a few years ago it was on the market for $2,400,000.
And consider the stats: The home at 113-21 Bainbridge Street spans seven parcels and clocks in at just under 7,000 square feet. Behind the brick fence that surrounds the property is a five-bedroom, four-bathroom home with a courtyard, roof deck, and three-car garage.

There’s certainly a lot to look at throughout, from the elegant living room with coffered ceilings to the marble floors and staircase. There’s also an indoor hot tub on the top floor by the roof deck.
The auction is scheduled for October 10 and 6 p.m. at the Hilton Hotel at Penn’s Landing. But if you want to preview the property beforehand, there are three opportunities to do so: Sunday, September 17; Wednesday, September 20; and Sunday, October 1 from 12 to 2 p.m.
The starting bid is $850,000—it’s “guaranteed” to sell at that price or above, according to the auction brochure.
