The wait is over! Here is the classic, spacious townhome that you have been waiting for in what is considered THE most desirable part of Center City! With 4 spacious bedrooms (3 of them with en suite baths!), 4 full bathrooms, 2 half baths, AND a finished basement, this home has it all. And best of all, it is just down the street from Fitler Square Park, Schuylkill River Park and Trail, a few blocks from Rittenhouse Square, and a quick and easy walk to UPenn, Chop, Drexel, Jefferson and the rest of Center city. Step in through a tiled entry vestibule into a large formal living room with a large picture window and additional seating area with an intricately designed decorative fireplace. Continue into a spacious dining room with bay window and skylight that opens onto the kitchen with ample cabinetry and a Viking range. A powder room and a back patio complete this floor. You will find high ceilings, crown moldings, stained glass windows and original hardwood floors throughout, among the many features that make this home special. The second floor boasts not one but two large en-suite bedrooms, each featuring built-ins, large walk-in-closets and custom bathrooms, one with double vanity and stall shower and the other with a jetted tub. The light-filled third floor contains yet another en-suite bedroom, along with a 4th bedroom/den with built-in shelves and skyline views of Center City and a full hallway bathroom. The large finished basement is home to an extra half bath, washer and dryer and is a great space for a den or playroom. Just down the street from Cafe Lutecia, Rival Bros Coffee, several grocery stores and parks, and with endless opportunities for dining and shopping all within a short walk, this is truly the best in city living. Take advantage of the many nearby bus and subway routes and easy highway access for an easy commute just about anywhere. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity that you won’t want to miss to get into a lovely home in an ideal location at a price that can’t be beat in this neighborhood!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
