About this property

Vintage charm seamlessly blends with modern amenities in this historic Northern Liberties townhouse. Enter into this magnificent property through an elegant vestibule with double doors and continue to the living room. The living room exudes charm with large windows, original wood flooring with in-lay, exposed brick, built-ins, and high ceilings. Through the living room is the open dining room and kitchen lined with bright windows. The kitchen has been thoughtfully renovated with quartzite counters & breakfast bar, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances & heated tile floors. Past the kitchen is a bonus room with a conveniently located powder room. Currently used as a playroom, this space would also be great for a home office, and leads out to the show-stopping backyard. Through sliding glass doors step out to a patio area with brick pavers that overlooks the expansive grass yard that has been meticulously manicured. This is a rarity in the city and perfect for outdoor entertaining. The second level features the spacious master suite which includes a bedroom with bay windows, sitting area and covered patio in addition to a walk-in closet and stunning bathroom. The master bathroom is newly renovated with a double marble vanity, marble tile flooring, a seamless glass shower, and a soaking tub. Also on this level is a light-filled guest room with the original built-in vanity. On the 3rd floor you will find another bedroom with an oversized hall bathroom which features a claw foot tub with shower, double vanity with marble top, and a full sized washer & dryer. This property also has a finished basement plus a large storage room -- the best of both! You will love this Northern Liberties location close to fantastic shops, restaurants and other neighborhood amenities!
