About This Home

Boasting dramatic skyline views from the rooftop terrace and dog park, to more quaint interior koi pond views from your personal patio, you have the ability to feel like you re in the city, or miles away, all at the same time. This gated modern one bedroom one bathroom unit offers 674 square feet of open living space and includes a deeded and gated garage parking spot on the first floor of the building. Enter the unit by walking up to the second floor open-air courtyard, encompassed by the building on almost all sides, thereby acting as a sound-wall from the outside city noises. Scenic views of the courtyard are just the beginning as you enter into the unit through an oversized door, opening up to the living room and kitchen area, finished with dark oak hardwood floors, quartz countertops, a large island with ample seating, GE stainless steel appliances, flat panel bamboo cabinetry, a goose neck chef s faucet, modern farmhouse pendant lighting and a glass backsplash. In addition to the main room and kitchen area, the unit includes a custom tile bathroom with a large all-glass shower complete with stone flooring, a large bedroom with ceiling fan, and a large walk-in bedroom closet. Top this all off with high-efficiency utilities such as a tank-less water heater and a new LG stackable washer dryer set. Get to know the area, with some of Philadelphia s finest establishments just seconds away from your front door. Suraya, Philadelphia Magazine s #1 ranked restaurant, W. Mulherins and Sons, Fette Sau, Frankford Hall, Evil Genius Brewery, Goose Island Brewery, the Fillmore, Johnny Brenda s and many more are all just steps away!
