Listing description

This beautifully updated penthouse offers a unique blend of historic character, modern comfort, and stunning views of the Delaware River and Ben Franklin Bridge. Filled with natural light from oversized windows, the open-concept layout creates an easy flow between the living, dining, and kitchen areas—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Original details like exposed brick and a decorative fireplace are paired with thoughtful updates, including refinished hardwood floors and custom built-ins that add warmth and functionality throughout. The kitchen is both stylish and practical, featuring a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Miele dishwasher, self-cleaning, dual convection oven, five-burner range, custom cherry cabinetry, and leathered granite countertops. The primary suite provides a comfortable retreat with a walk-in closet, in-unit washer/dryer, and a spacious bath with marble finishes, dual sinks, and an oversized shower. A second bedroom and full bath offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space. One of the standout features is the private, furnished roof deck—an inviting outdoor space with sweeping views of the Ben Franklin Bridge and Delaware River. With built-in seating, planters, and lighting, it’s perfect for relaxing or hosting friends. Additional highlights include low condo fees, updated HVAC, a restored roof deck, a newly replaced elevator, and freshly painted interiors. Located in the heart of Old City, just steps from popular restaurants, cafes, galleries, and historic landmarks, with green spaces and open areas a few blocks away, plus a pocket park directly across the street. A rare opportunity to enjoy penthouse living with character, outdoor space, and iconic views in one of Philadelphia’s most desirable neighborhoods.
