Expansive, light-filled, Rittenhouse Square neighborhood home in the coveted Greenfield catchment features 3 bedrooms plus 2 bonus spaces, 2.5 baths, a huge back patio, and transferrable parking one block away! A renovation just 5 years young turned this former duplex into a home that city dreams are made of! Enter through the gated breezeway, and as you make your way to the home's entrance, you'll find a closet that keeps your trash and recycling out of sight. Once inside, you will be greeted by beautifully refinished hardwood floors, 10' ceilings, and a fully renovated kitchen that boasts ample custom cabinetry, a 9' wide window with a reclaimed-wood deep sill that's perfect for your potted herbs and plants, counter-to-ceiling mermaid tile backsplash, and waterfall quartz countertops with peninsula where your friends can look on while you create culinary masterpieces. The adjoining dining area, with exposed brick, comfortably seats 8-10 people so hosting your next dinner party or family holiday will be a breeze. Continue to the bright and spacious living room, with built-in shelving, coat closet and wood-burning fireplace, which looks onto the south-facing brick patio, an ideal backdrop for dining al fresco or enjoying your morning coffee. With ease of entertaining in mind, a convenient half bath with stylish wallpaper and hexagonal black and white marble tile flooring completes this level. Upstairs you will discover two bedrooms, one oversized, that both boast custom closets. The renovated hall bath with linen closet is outfitted with gorgeous finishes such as a marble mini hexagonal tiled floor, marble-topped vanity, and a glass enclosed combination tub and shower with a herringbone subway tile surround. You'll love having your laundry room conveniently located on this level. The full 3rd floor primary suite is truly a showstopper! The 10' ceiling in the bedroom, which can easily accommodate a king-sized bed plus nightstands, allows the space to feel open and airy. The spa-like ensuite bathroom has a custom shower, double vanity with tons of storage, custom linen cabinet, and beautiful and classic black and marble tile flooring. Complete with its own sitting room with a second wood-burning fireplace, plus a fully enclosed greenhouse-style sunroom with 4-season climatization, and a wet bar with built-in seating, you will never want to leave this primary suite retreat. Use these flexible spaces in so many ways - as a family room, office, or workout room - the possibilities are endless and can change as your needs do. The unfinished basement allows for extra storage and is outfitted with a refrigerator which the sellers will leave behind. Most of the home's structure and utilities have been replaced or upgraded in the past 5 years, including but not limited to the roof, plumbing stack, recessed lighting, third floor HVAC, water heater, front windows, and more! Not to be forgotten is the transferrable open-air parking which is one block away. This home's prime location in the Greenfield Elementary catchment is just a few blocks from both Rittenhouse Square and Fitler Square parks, plus restaurants, bars and shopping in Center City and along South Street West. This home has been meticulously and thoughtfully renovated while maintaining much of its character, so that all you need to do is move in your belongings!
