Experience refinement and sophistication in the heart of Passyunk Square. This 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath home has a flowing floorplan, generous gathering spaces, multiple outdoor terraces, and is finished with a style and panache that cannot be denied. Rich hardwood floors beckon guests inside, where they are greeted with a warm living room both large and comfortable. A fireplace clad with a marble mantle and surround is a focal point, though the natural light from generous front windows and additional light from a private internal courtyard add to the ambiance. Beyond find space for a large dining room table or create an additional gathering space. The kitchen is a sight to behold, both functional and elegant. An array of spacious 42 cabinets capped with crown molding surround a large Carrara marble island, big enough for the whole family or the perfect setting for welcoming guests with hors d'oeuvres and a glass of bubbly. This heart of the home has a top-of-the-line appliance suite, Carrara marble countertops, backsplash and a pasta water filler. The contemporary overhead light fixture is simply stunning and pairs well with the adjacent dining room chandelier. Kitchen utility is perfectly complimented by an open butler's pantry just beyond, with additional storage cabinets, stone counters and sink. Ideal for party prep and staging when large gatherings are at hand. A powder room is also found here, elegant and discreet, as well as access to a small rear yard. The main stairs are extra wide, with runner, and are flanked by a beautiful, sealed exposed brick wall. They lead to a second floor with 2 generously sized bedrooms, each with en-suite bath with granite vanity, stone clad baths and stone baseboard, a bit of European flair for sure! The bedroom closets, and all other closets in the home, are fitted with California closet style dividers with dedicated space for hanging items. The second level also includes a central and open gathering space, perfect as a small upstairs family room, homework area or reading space. A laundry room and separate large storage closet for luggage or holiday items are also found on this level. The showstopper of the home however, may well be the third floor. It begins with a petit sitting room with marble topped wet bar with wine fridge and tile backsplash, and accesses the South facing outdoor terrace, which also leads to the roof deck. The other side of the sitting room finds a sumptuous primary suite, large and sublime, equally complimented by a gas fireplace with contemporary slate surround and a private terrace overlooking Columbus Square. The highlights are Centor brand glass terrace doors, these floor to ceiling accordion style doors are as beautiful as they are functional. The ensuite bath includes more marble, a double vanity with raised sinks and a large fully tiled marble shower with bench seat and skylight. On the other side of this level find the spiral stairs to the roof deck and ascend to an unobstructed view from the Center City skyline to the stadiums.
