Property Description

Bold, modern, and completely one-of-a-kind home redefines contemporary construction in Philadelphia. Its striking red steel and concrete facade makes an instant impression, setting the stage for what's inside-a seamless fusion of high design, sustainability, and craftsmanship rarely seen in today's market. Every element of this residence feels intentional, from the precision-cut metalwork to the flamed maple finishes that create an artful yet inviting atmosphere. Exposed steel beams and trim infuse the home with a bold, industrial energy, while the maple introduces warmth and refinement. The natural pattern, visual depth, and premium quality of the wood create a stunning juxtaposition-balancing artistry and performance, where rugged structure meets organic beauty. The first floor serves as an entry foyer from the oversized, heated one-car garage, complete with an electric vehicle charger and soaring ceilings. Down the hall, a flexible fourth bedroom, studio, or office opens to a private yard and full bath. Upstairs, the expansive open living area evokes a modern loft, featuring wall-to-wall windows, a custom kitchen with induction cooking, and flamed maple accents that tie the space together in sophisticated style. The third floor offers two generous bedrooms, a designer bath, and convenient upper-floor laundry. At the same time, the top level is dedicated to the breathtaking owner's suite, complete with vaulted wood ceilings, a city-facing deck, and rooftop solar panels that offset energy use, keeping utility costs close to nothing! With five radiant-heat zones, premium finishes, and a full tax abatement through March 2029, this extra-wide four-bedroom, three-bath home blends cutting-edge efficiency. Ideally located in the northern section of Point Breeze, you're within walking distance to Rittenhouse Square, Sprouts Organic Market, Giant Heirloom Market, Dock Street Brewery, ALDI, CVS, and all of Center City's dining and nightlife. Enjoy the vibrancy of urban living without losing the warmth of a close-knit neighborhood grab coffee at Breezy's Deli Market, dinner at Chick's, or unwind at the beloved Sardine Bar. Sophisticated, sustainable, and effortlessly cool, 2236 Alter Street represents Philadelphia's luxury living at its finest!
