Garage Parking one block away (Sellers will pay for two years upfront).

Significant renovations and updates throughout. The 1st floor offers a vestibule entry with recessed tray ceiling and art niche with cove lighting. Step into the capacious living and dining area that then opens into the renovated chef's kitchen with Thermador induction cooktop, custom cabinetry and marble waterfall counter and island tops. The banquette and marble table provide an idyllic breakfast area overlooking the serene, private brick patio with the sounds of the relaxing fountain. A custom coat closet and half bath with cute "parking meter and fire hydrant" wallpaper complete this floor. 2nd Floor--The top of the steps open into a comfortable family room with exposed brick, built-ins, and ceiling fan. The large front bedroom has 10' ceilings, random width floors, built-in desk and bookshelves, ceiling fan, and a custom closet. The nice-sized rear bedroom offers an exposed beam cathedral ceiling that range between 9.5' and 10'+. Large closet and built-in drawers. There is a hallway tile bath with stall shower and marble topped vanity. Hallway linen closet. 3rd Floor--Spacious home office with three big windows and dramatic skyline views. Ceiling fan.

Separate laundry room with side-by-side LG washer and dryer plus a hallway closet. The roof deck has two levels-- a small deck outside the office and then stairs up to a large deck with the most direct and spectacular views in the city. The full basement offers great storage and houses the mechanicals. All this in an amazing location--walk to Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, the museums, the Schuylkill River Trail, many restaurants and coffee shops, and all that Center City has to offer. So convenient to Rittenhouse, the Center City business district, universities, hospitals, and Suburban and 30th Street Stations. The more time you spend in this home the better, so if you are spending more time at home lately, you will Love this home. NOTES--The home used to have a tight, old-fashioned staircase but the sellers replaced it from basement to the top with a new wide, 21st century staircase while maintaining the original character that predominates throughout the home. This home enjoys a Culligan water treatment system, window treatments throughout, and multi-zone HVAC. 2-years Paid Parking in secure Franklin Institute Garage less than 1 block away ($280/month). GREENFIELD School Catchment. ADDITIONAL NOTE--2122 Race used to be a small deli that is now closed. The building owner is converting that 1st floor to a residential apartment (like its upper floors). As part of the conversion, he is removing the white sign and awning, so the building will have an attractive residential look that fits in with the block.
