Homes that are livable, but need work, range from

There were several reasons for her recent purchase

. Fairmount's proximity to Philadelphia's museums and parks ls an obvious advantage. Bordering
the parkway, and a short walk from E. River drive,
residents have easy access to the space they may
lack in their own backyards. Downtown jobs are
