Perfectly situated on a charming cherry tree-lined street, this stunning residence with an additional one bedroom rental unit or ‘in laws’ suite offers unparalleled elegance, functionality, and investment potential. From the moment you arrive at the residence, you will be impressed by the custom mahogany door with frosted glass and an amazing artist-designed glass iron awning which set the tone for the thoughtful and refined craftsmanship found throughout the home. Step into the grand marble foyer, where an intricate sunburst floor design framed by Italian stone tiles welcomes you. A custom oak staircase sweeps upward to the main living level, boasting an open floor plan flooded with natural light from four exposures. The over-sized living room features a gas fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming environment. The adjacent gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream featuring custom cherry cabinetry, quartz countertops, a professional grade appliance package with a Subzero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher and a Wolf exhaust hood complemented by a glass back splash. The breakfast counter is convenient for meals on the go with two counter stools. The separate dining room is ideal for hosting dinner parties. The newly installed Ipe deck is perfect for intimate outdoor gatherings. Ascending to the third floor, you'll find three spacious bedrooms and two beautifully designed bathrooms. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, featuring a large walk-in closet designed by California Closets and a contemporary bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower, floating sink, Toto toilet, and custom tiling. The additional bathroom on this level includes a vanity, custom tile, and a relaxing jetted tub. The straight staircase leads to the breathtaking fourth-floor addition, designed for ultimate entertaining. Walls of glass allow the sunlight to shower the space in great natural light. This open living space features a full kitchen with marble countertops and an induction stovetop and a undercounter refrigerator and a generously sized sink. A separate bedroom/den with a vaulted ceiling adjoins the space and includes an additional full bathroom with a stall shower. The highlight of this level is the stunning over-sized roof deck, an entertainer’s dream with ample space for large gatherings of 25 people or more. The deck features a custom glass railing, a pergola supporting an electric SunSetter shade, and panoramic views of William Penn on top of City Hall as well as the city skyline. The finished lower level includes a flex space or additional bedroom with a powder room, plus a separate room for mechanicals. The home features 34 energy-efficient, sound-deadening Pella casement windows, Hunter Douglas wood blinds, and custom Venetian blinds. It also includes separate HVAC systems for both living units, energy-saving split units for the fourth floor and basement, and a full sprinkler system. The entire residence has been freshly painted throughout. The handsome hardwood floors are also newly refinished throughout. A separate entrance located on Sartain Street is for the private rental unit or ‘in-law’ suite offering a well-designed and efficient one-bedroom floor plan with a large closet, an efficient kitchen, and an L-shaped living/dining area. Two new sliding doors lead to a private, partially protected patio, allowing for year-round outdoor enjoyment. If desired, a door could be installed to connect the rental unit/ ‘in law’s’ suite to the main residence. A dedicated, remote controlled, private parking lot for one car is at Manning & 12th Street. An additional one car parking is located at The Lombard and Quince Street Parking lot and potentially could be included with the sale of the home.
