About this property
5-Star Charming Philly Townhouse in Museum Area
A traditional rowhouse on a small quiet street, yet only a quick walk to Philadelphia's famous museums and Boathouse Row, Kelly Drive for biking, running and walking, Fairmount Park, and only a little further to Whole Foods, Eastern State Penitentiary and Center City. Great restaurants close by and public transit with 4 bus lines within a block. Two fixie bikes for riding the beautiful Schuylkill River drives and for quick trips into Center City.
The space
We are following Airbnb's COVID-19 safety and cleaning protocols including cleaning with bleach and alcohol while wearing masks and gloves. I bought this home recently so all of the furniture and mattresses are new. The house is on a very quiet street and has double-paned windows.
Guest access
Guests have access to the whole house.
Other things to note
Let me know if you have any questions about the house, the neighborhood or Philadelphia. And now the small print - the City of Philadelphia requires that I post: Limited Lodging Operator License Number 898417 and Commercial Activity License Number 863993.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Richard Ervais
We are the top-rated property in Philadelphia on the "other" vacation rental platform but are new to VRBO. I'm an itinerant traveler and know the do's and don'ts of hospitality. My goal is that every guest has an incredible stay.
Why they chose this property
Fairmount / Art Museum-area is perfectly situated for access to recreation (biking, running, walking, rowing along the Schuylkill), museums (the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Barnes Foundation, the Rodin museum, the Franklin Institute, Eastern State Penitentiary museum - all a quick walk. And lots of restaurants along the Fairmount Avenue corridor. Yet only a 20 minute walk to the heart of Center City Philadelphia while staying in a very quiet neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
We cater to our guests like no other property in Philadelphia.
