House of the Day: 93 2nd Street
We’re surprised the listing for 93 2nd Street didn’t include something along the lines of “Own your own house for the price of a condo!” The 1,620-square-foot mini-house is a charmer for sure and for a couple or small family this really could be a nice alternative to a condo.

We’re surprised the listing for 93 2nd Street didn’t include something along the lines of “Own your own house for the price of a condo!” The 1,620-square-foot mini-house is a charmer for sure and for a couple or small family this really could be a nice alternative to a condo. The house, which traded for $975,000 three years ago, is now asking $1,125,000. We could see it getting pretty close to that. What do you think?

Ed: We’re taking a new price voting feature for a test run on this post. The idea is to get the group to predict what the house will sell for. In a few months, we’ll be able to start to look back and see how close we came as a group! It will also provide some pretty immediate feedback to sellers on whether they’re in the right ballpark.
DIBS, thanks. I never noticed that button before. That garden is in large part what makes this place much more livable that a condo. Your living space is expanded for almost half the year.
it is limited to 1 vote
I didn’t ignore that…I just like this better than a condo. I think it’s an absolutely adorable house. And of course it has maintenance costs.
Hey Dave…just out of curiosity, what would a house like this cost down a little east and south of Rittenhouse Square…? Maybe 500? 600?
I think this is absolutely hysterical! $1.125 for THIS? Even $975,000 was a joke! Like they say, there’s a sucker born every minute. There are obviously a lot of suckers out there.
I think the price widget is pretty neat, though.
This house is cute, but like the Satori 1/3rd of the space is very strange. At the cute house, you get a basement, at the Satori a dreaded mezzanine. The house is narrower, but the outdoor space is bigger. I agree I would much prefer to live in a mini-house than a condo, but it’s such a small house it will be difficult to grow into for a family.
Mr. B I think you need to limit the voting to one per customer. I’ve seen that on sights where if you try to cote a second time it says, “Oops You’ve already voted!” without that people might deliberately try to skew the numbers.
If seller must sell than maybe 1.050 but that will will barely leave seller anything after transfer taxes and capital gains taxes since seller paid 975K. I say they will take it off the market or it will just sit.
11217 a house does have maintenance costs. Often more than a condo. DO you think once you buy a house you live for free? Have you ever heard of real estate taxes? Water and sewer bills? Insurance bills? repair bills?
cggirl…there are additional pics…see just below the pics on the listing page…there’s 2 garden pics i believe…beautiful cherry trees.
