Weekend Open House Roundup: In the Grad Hospital Groove

Graduate Hospital has been topping lists of Center City’s hottest up-and-coming neighborhoods for the better part of the last decade. If that sounds like a long time to stay the freshest thing in town, know that it’s because G.Ho just keeps getting more popular! Hip, happening, and inhabited by an eclectic group of residents passionate about continued development, Grad Hospital skews young and prides itself on greater affordability than nearby Rittenhouse Square. Enjoy this peek at a quintet of eligible, diverse Grad Hospital homes for sale and having open houses this weekend. Visit one, or visit all – your next home could be part of this roundup!

An affordable, adorable starter pad with room for eventual growth? Tell me where else you’ve going to find that in the city!
