Property Description
A stunningly bright, eclectic, south-west facing corner home with significant character and a convenient, neighborly location. This home, perfect for the consummate city dweller, offers 3 bedrooms (or 2 bedrooms plus family room), plus a greenhouse/solarium, and 2.5 baths. Roof deck with 270 degree south and western views. Think of the shape, character, and even neighborhood feel of NYC's flat iron building, but on a comfortable, residential scale-with a focus on urban livability. The character includes substantial exposed brick, hardwood floors including original random width pine floors, very high ceilings on all three floors, spectacular light, bespoke artisan finishes, and a bevy of nooks and crannies. Modern kitchen with aqua cabinetry and stainless steel appliances and tastefully stylish, updated baths. 5-zone, ultra-efficient (and quiet) mini-split HVAC (just installed in 2025). Moreover, the home enjoys some passive heating from the south facing Trombe wall and the greenhouse-further reducing heating bills. 1st Floor-Enter into an open living area with dining and kitchen. 10' ceilings, a western wall of exposed brick, recessed lighting, ceiling fan, glass block for maximum light and privacy, with full security. Additional transom above and windows into the greenhouse for even more light. The greenhouse has been a working (plumbed) greenhouse and is currently used as a workout room and storage. Half bath with artisan bottle cap floor. Rear door offers a small back vestibule-perfect to house your trash and recycling bins. Never walk your trash through the home. The large south facing 3rd bedroom or family room/den office offers glass block, exposed brick, large transom, and eclectic ceiling paint and moldings. Hardwood flooring under the carpet could be refinished. 2nd Floor-9 foot ceilings. Hardwood floors. The spacious living/family room has superb light from four large windows (two exposures). Custom built-in bookshelves. Large storage closet and another closet. The 2nd bedroom offers south and west exposures, exposed brick (including a brick reveal), ceiling fan, and cork flooring. The updated en-suite bath offers more superb natural light and a salvaged barn door. 3rd Floor Primary Suite-9.5' cathedral wood plank ceilings and random width pine floors. Seemingly impossible light throughout. Huge walk-in-closet and dressing area with laundry even has its own mini-split. Updated full bath with excellent natural light. Roof Deck-Stairs to the large roof deck with 270 degree views, including the western skyline. Dramatic sunsets! Basement-Significant dry storage. Location-With a 96 WalkScore and in the Greenfield School CATCHMENT, this is one of the city's best locations. Walk to top restaurants, cafes, grocery stores, gourmet markets, and more. Right down the block is a lovely piazza where families sit and enjoy ice cream and coffee. You're also just minutes from Schuylkill River Park, with its playground, dog park, tennis courts, and Schuylkill River Trail access. It's a quick walk to Rittenhouse, University City, University of Pennsylvania, CHOP, and public transit. Close to 30th Street Station and all major highways.
