Description

Welcome to Penthouse 2505/2406 at Independence Place located on scenic Washington Square. This rarely available bi-level Penthouse was redesigned by KJO Architecture LLC and went through a complete renovation in 2015. The open concept first floor is an entertainer's dream! From the minute you walk through the door you are taken back by the never-ending, unobstructed, 180-degree views from the floor-to-ceiling windows that provide a plethora of natural light. A chef's kitchen complete with a butler's pantry and gorgeous built-in cabinets for displaying glassware is perfect for all your hosting needs! Featuring appliances by Frigidaire, a wine fridge by Gaggenau, and custom cabinetry in Macassar Ebony Veneer with custom lighting within. The main living and dining room is an open space with a gracious, west-facing, wrap-around balcony that offers a captivating sunset view overlooking Washington Square. It is uncommon for a condominium to have a wood-burning fireplace, but in this custom penthouse you will find a magnificent one in the corner of the living room area, giving the room a cozy vibe! Off the kitchen is a custom-built home bar with Ebony Veneer where you can sit and enjoy unobstructed views of Philadelphia and the Delaware River. A 1051-capacity bottle wine storage with a lighted display area and Ponderosa Pine doors (with a faux macassar finish) flanks one of the living room walls. Down the hall, you will find a home gym with a full bathroom conveniently located across that can easily be converted into one or two bedrooms. Also located on the upper level is a large laundry room and powder room. The lower level is a sumptuous primary suite with a walk-in closet, private balcony, and well-appointed bathroom. The main bedroom features custom veneer cabinetry surrounding the gas fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows with breathtaking views of the river and beyond. The entire floor boasts Porcelanosa tile flooring. The primary bath has radiant floor heating, two private bathroom stalls, an oversized shower with multiple shower heads, and a heated towel rack. There is a double vanity with stainless steel sinks and lighted Reoburn medicine cabinets. All the tile is by Porcelanosa and the light fixtures by Sonneman. With two storage/walk-in closets on the lower level in addition to another oversized closet by Closet Works this unit is not lacking any storage. Additional home features include a security system, Lutron shades on all windows, a central vacuum, hidden Sonos speakers throughout, antique lighting fixtures, a whole home audio system, and new floor-to-ceiling windows in the bar and living room.
