Description

Welcome to Residence #202 at The Clinton—a historically registered, 16-unit boutique condominium building set along iconic Clinton Street in the heart of Washington Square West. This second-floor home sits on one of Philadelphia’s most admired blocks, where brick sidewalks, gas lamps, and leafy trees create an atmosphere that feels more like a hidden European lane rather than a Center City address. The Clinton's intimate scale fosters a peaceful sense of community and architectural character that is increasingly rare. Inside, this spacious one-bedroom, one-bath residence offers 994 square feet of refined living, enhanced by soaring ceilings that immediately elevate the space. The unit faces south; this southern exposure pours sunlight through oversized windows from morning to afternoon, bathing the home in warmth and natural light. All windows were replaced in 2021, improving energy efficiency, sound control, and daily comfort while framing views of the historic streetscape below. The open floor plan flows naturally from living to dining and into a well-appointed kitchen, offering versatility for entertaining, working remotely, or simply enjoying the calming elegance of the space. Storage is abundant throughout the residence, with thoughtful closet placement rarely found in boutique condominiums. The entry welcomes you with deep closets for coats, everyday essentials, and seasonal items. The spacious bedroom features a generous walk-in closet designed to accommodate more than clothing—ideal for organization, luggage, or off-season storage. Additional closets throughout the home provide places for linens, pantry goods, household supplies, and more, allowing the space to appear larger and remain clutter-free. The bathroom was fully renovated in 2020 and brings a clean, modern feel with elevated finishes and smart storage solutions that support both design and function. The residence includes a recently replaced ventless washer and dryer, a 2022 water heater, and centralized HVAC providing both heating and air conditioning—ensuring comfort in every season and peace of mind. Life at The Clinton extends beyond your private residence. Entry begins through a charming shared lobby with secure key-fob access and video surveillance, offering ease and comfort without compromising the building’s historic presence. Outdoors, a serene shared garden courtyard provides a welcome escape from the city—perfect for morning coffee, reading, or unwinding in a rare, private green setting in this highly walkable location. With only sixteen total residences, the building offers the ideal blend of intimacy, privacy, and boutique living. The lifestyle here is unmatched. Live just blocks from Philadelphia’s best restaurants, cafés, and everyday conveniences including Whole Foods, Acme, and Green Street Coffee. Enjoy the tranquil beauty of Louis Kahn Memorial Park, and benefit from close proximity to Jefferson Hospital and Pennsylvania Hospital. Residents also appreciate being located within the highly regarded McCall School catchment. Clinton Street is more than a place to live—it is a beloved streetscape with timeless charm and a community that feels truly special. This is your opportunity to own in a historic, boutique building on one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after streets. Welcome to The Clinton. Welcome home. Monthly parking available at the Acme on South between 10-11th street for additional fee.
