Those of us for whom cleaning is an exercise in creative laziness will especially appreciate these three Philadelphia homes under a thousand square feet. Less space means less dusting.
Ah, spring. No one can breathe, the heat index is already soaring and suddenly we're gripped with the urge to … straighten up. Those of us for whom cleaning is an exercise in creative laziness will especially appreciate these three Philadelphia homes under a thousand square feet. Less space means less dusting.

Sq feet: 725
It's not a tiny house but this two-bedroom trinity is still adorable. We love the covered back patio and the wood-burning fireplace. Also unusual for a home like this? Upstairs laundry.

$175,000
2015 taxes: $2,026
Sq feet: 990
It's not a tiny house but we love this Germantown condo just the same. Packing a ton of charm into two bedrooms in the newly converted Mansard complex, this unit has views of Magnolia trees and a huge deck. Not great for your allergies but the absolute best for your sense of delight.
143 Fitzwater Street, Philadelphia
$325,000
2015 taxes: $3,276
Sq feet: 800
It's not a tiny house but this property does date all the way back to 1782. We love the fancy updates, including high-end kitchen appliances (think: Miele, Bertazzoni and Blomberg) and hand-made tiling. Another rare find? Planting beds in the large patio out back.
