Property Description
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a gorgeously renovated and highly customized free-standing, two-story carriage home in the desirable Washington Square West neighborhood of Philadelphia. Originally built in the 19th century, this home was completely renovated in 2009 by an architect, blending historic charm with contemporary luxury. The modern interior features clean lines, luxurious finishes, and custom craftsmanship, thoughtfully designed to maximize living space, storage, and natural light. The spectacular kitchen is a chef's delight, boasting high-end appliances, including a Fratelli Onofri 5-burner gas stove, custom American walnut cabinetry, and white limestone countertops. The first floor includes a wall of glass leading to an oversized outdoor patio with built-in flower beds and overlooking a leafy corridor of trees. The upper level features a generously sized bedroom with a wall closet (customized with drawers, hanging rods and additional storage) a full bathroom featuring Kohler finishes and an open office area with solid white oak floors and custom solid ash bookcases, which can also double as a guest bedroom with a Murphy bed. Both first and second floor feature radiant heated floors, perfect for the colder months. Additional storage is provided in the partial basement and crawl space that extends the full length of the first floor. Perfect for walkers and bikers with a Walk Score of 99, the location is steps away from: Antique Row, Khan Park, The Avenue of the Arts and The Kimmel Center, Seger Park, Acme and Whole Foods and world-class restaurants. This 1-bedroom + den , 1-bathroom, 840 sq. ft. home is a wonderful alternative to condominium living and a must-see.
