About This Home

As of October 2016

Welcome to the Snowden Residence! Located within an architecturally-significant brownstone originally owned by a prominent Philadelphian who served as Superintendent of the Mint, Postmaster, and Commissioner of Fairmount Park, this unit was once the home's opulent parlor. The 19th Century splendor of the original parquet floors; intricately carved moldings, trim, and French doors; gleaming black marble mantle; oversized windows; and soaring ceilings is even more magnificent today. The modern updates are also impressive: a gourmet kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops, marble-tiled bathroom, custom roman shade window treatments, a fantastic crystal chandelier and of course central air. The expansive open floor plan offers ample space for entertaining, as does the enormous private rear patio. Along with the spacious bedroom with beautiful stained glass transom windows, this unit also has a separate office/den off of the living room, as well as a half bath. Basement storage unit. Rear access. Low condo fees. Top this all off with a coveted covered parking spot?within one block of Rittenhouse Square! Unique is an understatement--there's truly nothing else like it!
