The first floor offers an open living and dining area anchored by a fireplace, creating a warm and inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. Just beyond, the updated kitchen features a bay window overlooking the beautifully bricked garden. The second floor includes two bedrooms and a hall bath with classic retro tile. The front bedroom enjoys southern exposure and a cozy fireplace, while the rear bedroom overlooks the garden and features a spacious walk-in cedar closet. The third floor is a loft-style en-suite with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and both southern and northern exposures, offering flexibility as a primary suite, guest space, or work-from-home retreat. A special property in the heart of Rittenhouse Square with appealing shops (coffee, bakery, restaurants) around one corner and a Michelin-starred eatery at the other corner. All this with easy access to 30th Street Station as well as Penn, CHOP and Drexel.
