Description
Experience a one-of-a-kind city residence in this expansive corner penthouse loft at 1228 Arch Street, Unit 8A. Spanning more than 2,200+ square feet, this distinctive home offers two spacious Primary Bedroom Suites, Three Bathrooms, and a generous Den that can easily function as a 3rd bedroom, Home Office, or Guest retreat. The main level welcomes you with an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area highlighted by soaring 18-foot ceilings and dramatic two-story high windows that flood the space with natural light throughout the day. Authentic loft details including exposed wood and metal beams, original red brick walls, and rich warm wood flooring create an atmosphere that blends historic character with modern comfort. One of the home’s most exceptional features is the Private 730-square-foot Rooftop Deck, an incredibly rare outdoor space with sweeping skyline views that provide the perfect backdrop for relaxing mornings, sunset gatherings, or effortless entertaining above the city. The kitchen was thoughtfully designed for both daily living and hosting, featuring solid stone countertops, a 36-inch Wolf oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and a Viking beverage center with wine refrigerator. Also on the main level are a stylish Half Bath, a dedicated laundry room with full-size front-loading washer and dryer, a large walk-in storage closet, and a double-door coat closet. A bright corner bedroom with an ensuite bath and oversized walk-in closet completes this floor. Upstairs, the open den offers versatile living space before leading to the private top-floor primary suite, where a skylight above the soaking tub creates a spa-like setting alongside a walk-in shower, dual sinks, and natural stone finishes. Recent upgrades enhance the home’s appeal and provide a low-maintenance lifestyle, while condo fees that cover nearly All Utilities add exceptional value. Located just steps from Reading Terminal Market, Trader Joe’s, public transportation, and countless neighborhood dining and entertainment options, this home offers the perfect blend of scale, character, and convenience. With an acceptable offer, the seller is also including one year of prepaid Garage Parking located just half a block away. Schedule your private tour and see firsthand what makes this extraordinary condo truly unforgettable. Enjoy the well regarded McCall School Catchment if needed, as well as, a low *4.99 % mortgage interest rate offer for the first 12 payments at no cost to Buyer.* OPEN HOUSE: SUNDAY, MARCH 15th from 12 P.M. to 1:30 PM
