About This Home
As of April 2025Here is an excellent opportunity to own a well priced home or pied a terre in the heart of Center City. Studio too small? One Bedroom too large? This is the perfect size for in between. Enter into the room which is presently being used as the sleeping area. This room has a large closet and a window with a view towards the Center City skyline including both iconic Liberty Place towers. The hallway leads to the completely renovated bathroom with white subway tile and large stone tiled floors. Further ahead is the kitchen which has now been fully opened and which has timeless white cabinets and appliances, and granite counters including a breakfast bar which comfortably holds four bar stools. Facing out of the kitchen is the living area with large windows offering a western sunset view. Academy House, a 24/7 door person building with a state of the art fitness center and monthly (extra fee) garage parking available, cannot be more centrally located. It is literally next door to the Academy of Music, one block from The Kimmel Center and it has an array of places to eat within one block of the building. You can walk to The Reading Terminal Market and Trader Joe’s in minutes. This home can also make a great investment unit and it is presently rented through the end of March 2025. Condo fee includes internet and cable which is currently $72.50 per month.
