Enjoy Center city living in this one-of-a-kind gem located a few steps away from Rittenhouse square. This polished and sophisticated corner property has south-western exposure, its vast (39) windows bathe each floor in gorgeous sunlight all day. This... house, elevated from the street for added privacy, has a double staircase that leads to a gracious double wide entry door. The first floor has a top-of-the-line chef’s kitchen with sprawling countertops, cabinets galore, an elegant living room with a marble contemporary gas fireplace where you will love cuddling in the winter, a large outdoor space off the kitchen, a powder room and a double-wide coat closet (YES! Somebody was actually thinking!!!). Jump to the rooftop and you will fall in love with the magnificent sprawling deck that spans the entire footprint of the house and is surrounded with mature plantings tended by the landlord’s gardener a couple times a year. The breathtaking views are the perfect backdrop for year-round gatherings you will want to host, taking advantage of the cozy sitting area under a wooden pergola, the poured concrete wet bar with convenient fridge and the gas fire pit. On the second and third floors are FOUR very generous bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a laundry room with oversized washer and dryer and ample clothes and linen closets throughout. The lower level has a very spacious family room, a two-person workstation PLUS a separate office space, a wine cellar, a powder room, a large bonus closet and a large storage room. Read More
