Welcome to this 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home with gated 4-car off-street parking, a rare combination for the city. Step inside this beautifully renovated Philadelphia rowhome, where custom, high-end finishes meet smart, flexible living space. The current owners undertook a top-to-bottom transformation, and the results are evident from the moment you walk in. The open main level features wide-plank hardwood floors and a striking open-riser staircase that sets the tone for the home's design-forward aesthetic. The kitchen is a true showstopper, with a waterfall-edge granite island, full-height cabinetry, and a paneled built-in refrigerator. A powder room completes the main floor. French doors lead out to a private, covered rooftop patio wired for lighting, offering a true outdoor extension of the living space. Upstairs, the owners reconfigured the second floor to create two well-proportioned bedrooms and both full bathrooms, including an enlarged primary suite with a spa-style en-suite bath featuring a floating dual vanity, backlit mirror, and glass-enclosed walk-in shower. The second bedroom includes custom built-in wardrobes and a built-in desk nook, plus access to a beautifully tiled hall bath with a soaking tub. The finished lower level adds valuable living space, with a third bedroom that includes proper egress, a dedicated laundry area, and a spacious recreation room finished with designer wallpaper, an exposed wood-beam ceiling, and a custom sliding barn door. Outside, a fully fenced rear patio with a retractable pergola cover and storage shed creates a private outdoor retreat. And in a city where parking is at a premium, this home delivers: gated, off-street parking with room for up to 5 vehicles, a rare and valuable amenity for Philadelphia living. This move-in-ready home offers a rare combination of thoughtful renovation, flexible layout, and hard-to-find parking, ideal for a variety of living needs.
