Large two-bedroom, two bath unit in one of Philadelphia’s premiere condominium buildings just across beautiful Benjamin Franklin Boulevard from the Philadelphia Museum of Art; full- frontal balcony looks down from the 20 th floor on the iconic statue of Joan of Arc surrounded by hedge of pyracantha.As you enter the unit, a thirty-foot hallway lined with closets including a deep walk-in closet as well as various built-ins (equivalent to another bedroom for storage!) stretches out before you with a center gap that allows for a console and mirror for a final outfit check before you leave for the evening’s adventures. As that hallway comes to an end, it opens to the left to form a bar area leading into the large south-facing living room. The balcony overlooks the Art Museum and the lights of University City surmount the view of the meandering Schuylkill River as it glides under the lighted arches of the bridges connecting the East and West banks. The stunning sunset views range from dazzling to breath-taking. The dining room forms an L with the living room with one end looking out onto the balcony and the other into the newly updated kitchen. With mostly new appliances (two Samsung refrigerators with through-the-door ice and water, a new American Range gas double wall-oven, a new Samsung microwave, a five-burner Kenmore gas cooktop with venting hood, a new Insinkerator disposal and a KitchenAid dishwasher join substantial cherry-stained cabinets (including a seven-foot high pantry cabinet) and granite counter-tops providing lots of storage and work surface. Leaving the kitchen through a door back into the bar area you pass a stacked full-size Kenmore washer/dryer concealed in another closet as you go into a small hallway leading to the two bedrooms. A newly remodeled hall-bath with walk-in shower, large three bay medicine cabinet with full mirror over a vanity and a Toto dual-flush toilet is on the right before you enter the generous-sized second bedroom, with windows facing North over the lights of Fairmount that can be blocked out with the manually operated black-out shades. Two folding door closets provide lots of room for clothing with one having over/under hanging rods while the other is for longer garments. Leaving this room and turning right just outside its door you come to the even larger master bedroom. Presently outfitted as a study and exercise room, it has a fully remodeled en suite bath with walk-in shower, full width vanity with granite top, another three-bay medicine cabinet and a new Kohler toilet. This bedroom has more folding-door closets, one section of which has shelving to accommodate a printer and supplies to support the users of the two L- shaped desks that face out of the windows also overlooking the houses of Fairmount. The fully white wall to the right is designed to be a perfect screen for projecting movies, and the automatic black-out shades make sure that you watch in perfect darkness. 80 in staff and numerous conveniences including frequent shuttle bus service into Center City every day except Sunday. One could go on about the life at The Philadelphian, but one resident said it best when she said “It’s like living on a cruise ship that never leaves port … everything you need is right there!”

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.
