Hawthorne Condos

Fitzwater Lofts

735-739 S. 12th St.
Philadelphia, PA 19147

Fitzwater Lofts consists of 16 condos located in Philadelphia’s Hawthorne neighborhood. Located at 12th and Fitzwater Streets, this was an existing building that was converted to condominiums. Every condo has parking and outdoor space. There are multiple floor plans available in the building which include: 1 bed 1 bath; 1 bed 1.5 bath; 2 bed 1 bath; 2 bed 1.5 bath; and 2 bed 2 bath. These condos range in square footage from 798 to 1,728. This is an elevator building that is pet friendly and additional storage is available in the basement. There is no doorman or fitness center. For those of you familiar with real estate along the south Jersey shore, this property reminds me of a shore home with the multiple wooden decks with the white plastic railings. These condos have tons of exposed brick, lots of light, and high ceilings.

A former school house, Hawthorne Lofts is a unique, cool, funky condo conversion in Philadelphia’s Hawthorne neighborhood. Consisting of 53 condos and ranging from studios to two bedrooms these condos are all bi-level…minus the units on the first floor. The amenities here are really cool. They include a community room with TV and billiards, a solid fitness center – with sauna and steam room, one of the nicer communal laundry rooms I have seen, and a superb, spacious communal roof deck with AMAZING Philadelphia skyline views. There is a parking lot adjacent to the building in which most of the condos have parking. As cool and as hip as the building is, that’s as funky as some of the layouts are. Unfortunately, I saw one of the least functional one bedroom floor plans I have ever seen in this building. However, that’s not to say that there aren’t great units at Hawthorne Lofts with functional space. This is an elevator building and it is pet friendly. These condos boast granite counters, hardwood floors, and stainless steel appliances, along with, a variety of modern finishes.
