About This Home

As of August 2023

Residence No. 5 at 1714 Spruce Street is a wonderful two-bedroom luxury condo with gated parking in the desirable Rittenhouse Square neighborhood. Situated on the third floor of a handsome and wide brownstone, behind the ornate pediments and classic wooden doors, No. 5 offers a sophisticated and relaxing urban living experience. Upon entering, you will be greeted by a spacious open living and dining area, seamlessly integrated with the chef's kitchen. The kitchen boasts tall wooden cabinetry with upgraded hardware, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an expansive central island with contemporary glass pendant lights. A marble-framed gas fireplace, candle style chandelier, and gilded oversized mirrors are perfectly paired and accentuate the already grand living area. The sunny sitting room is complete with an oversized window and a glass door that leads to an outdoor landing. Back inside, original hardwood floors are newly refinished and lead from the living area to a wide hallway that contains the first of two full bathrooms. With dual exposures, the hallway allows for a cross breeze through the expansive condo that has been freshly painted, from front to back and floor to ceiling. The tiled hall bath features a glass-enclosed shower and pedestal sink. A convenient storage closet is also located in the hall, on the way to the bedrooms. The large primary suite is perfectly charming and features a second gas fireplace with marble surround and chandelier that vie with twinkling city lights for your attention. The marble en-suite bathroom is a true luxury, complete with a soaking tub, separate glass-enclosed shower, and dual vanity sinks adorned with upgraded chrome hardware. Just outside of the en-suite are closets that house the front-loading LG ThinQ front-loading washer and dryer as well as the resident’s clothing. A second bedroom with tall ceilings is located off of the central hall and features an oversized window and interior closet. This residence comes complete with an on-site GATED PARKING SPACE and additional storage space in the building’s basement. A Nest thermostat and smart entry intercom add to the list of conveniences. This exceptional property is on par with the neighborhood that envelops it: Rittenhouse Square. Stop for fresh flowers, artisan cheeses, handmade chocolates, and the like each Saturday, at farmer’s market on the Square. Grab a morning coffee at La Colombe, visit Parc for lunch, and stroll Philadelphia’s prime shopping corridor on nearby Walnut Street. Amenities are abound with a Rittenhouse Square address, and it will be a pleasure to show you this exceptional property.
