Exterior Transformation with Classic Charm
Location: 1015 Farragut Terrace • Philadelphia, PA 19143
At PAINT Philadelphia, we recently had the opportunity to refresh the exterior of a beautiful historic row home nestled on Farragut Terrace in West Philadelphia. This project focused on enhancing the architectural features of this brick façade while staying true to its original character.
A Subtle Yet Striking Color Palette
For this home, we selected Sage Green as the primary color to accent the woodwork and trim. This timeless, earthy tone perfectly complements the natural brick and adds depth without overwhelming the historic aesthetic. We also used a soft Off-white/Cream for the porch ceiling and spindle details, providing a crisp contrast that brightens the entry space and draws attention to the home’s detailed craftsmanship. Together, these colors strike a perfect balance between heritage and freshness.
Detail-Oriented Craftsmanship
This project involved careful surface prep on the brick and detailed trim, including porch railings, columns, latticework, and upper-level decorative molding. Our team ensured that every edge and corner was treated with precision—protecting the home from weather while elevating its curb appeal. From the ground-level lattice to the intricate gable ornaments above the third floor, each element was painted with care and consistency.
The result? A rejuvenated façade that honors the past while standing strong for the future. This home now radiates with warmth and elegance, becoming a standout on the block.
