Description

This home isn't for everyone; it's for the smart buyer who knows exactly what they want and refuses to overpay for it. All the amenities of Rittenhouse, none of the Rittenhouse price tag. The Savant whole-house smart system runs everything effortlessly in the background, while the private elevator makes hosting feel seamless — whether you're moving catering to the rooftop, the kitchen, or the home theater without missing a beat. Below, a two-car garage finished with custom cabinetry and EV charging sits ready for whatever you're driving. And with 7+ years of tax abatement remaining, this home makes as much sense on paper as it does in person. At the intersection of Passyunk Square and Queen Village, where James Beard-recognized restaurants, idyllic parks, and local shops await. Your journey begins at street level, where warm limestone creates dialogue between classical elegance and contemporary confidence. Professionally landscaped planters frame your arrival, while a well-lit keypad entry welcomes family, friends, and trusted guests. Cross the threshold into a foyer with custom lighting and elevator access to all five levels. Here you'll find a coat closet, discreet garage access, and a secluded ground-floor bedroom suite with its own outdoor patio—perfect as a creative studio, private haven for extended family, or nanny's retreat. The two-car garage is wired for electric vehicle charging with custom cabinetry and interlocking mats. The lower level becomes your private club—a subterranean retreat with custom-built media room, wet bar, and sink for movie nights and poker games. Off the media room, discover a bathroom honoring the refined ritual of a good cigar. A wine wall displays your collection, while thoughtful storage keeps everything at hand and out of sight. The white oak wood with a custom black iron railing frame the stairs throughout the home with step lighting transforms evening climbs. Each landing opens as a gallery for your art. The second floor is the home's beating heart. The gourmet kitchen features ceiling-height custom cabinetry in a sophisticated sage palette, crowned with brass hardware. Custom-designed quartzite counters cascade in a dramatic waterfall edge. A fired clay sink anchors the space, while a custom hood rises overhead. The pot filler at the range speaks to efficiency, while the kitchen island invites morning coffee and conversation. New lighting and abundant storage complete the space. The dining room's chandelier presides over a table where dinner parties linger. The living room wraps in natural light from two banks of windows. A gas fireplace centers the composition, flanked by built-in bookcases. Step through to the expansive deck with a BBQ for grilling and flower boxes overflowing with seasonal color. The third floor offers three bedrooms—one currently a home office. There is one En-Suite bedroom featuring custom wallpaper, lighting, mirrors, and cabinetry. The laundry room has custom built-ins and thoughtful tile work. The fourth floor is entirely yours. This expansive corner primary suite captures light from multiple exposures with remote-controlled blinds. Custom-built dual closets and radiant floor heating create spa experiences. The bathroom features a double vanity, an egg tub for soaking with city views, and a spa shower enclosed in glass. The wallpapered hallway creates a beautiful transition. This level includes a powder room and wet bar for guests before ascending to the rooftop. The fifth-floor rooftop offers 360 degrees of Philadelphia magic: skyline silhouettes, stadium lights, Fourth of July fireworks at eye level. The outdoor kitchen with BBQ, refrigerator, and sink means you'll never leave paradise. An outdoor television, expansive seating area, and fire pit anchor gatherings, while fully irrigated cedar flower boxes overflow with color—your private garden in the sky. So many extra's we couldn't fit them in!
