The spiral staircase leads to yet another outdoor space with a large roof deck with views of Center City and the Ben Franklin Bridge. If that isn't enough, enjoy the fully finished basement with full bathroom and additional closet space. This home is equipped with a sprinkler system, an alarm system with two video intercoms and the hot water heater and HVAC were just replaced in 2025!
