About This Home

As of March 2022

2028 Locust Street is newly updated, freshly painted and meticulously maintained! A one-of-a-kind 4 bed, 4.5 bath home bathed in sunlight from 3 exposures! This premium location is just steps from the world-renowned Rittenhouse Square, long regarded as the most desirable neighborhood in Center City. Enter the grand living room spacious enough for two sitting areas, with brand new, finished in-house 5½ inch-wide white oak hardwood floors throughout, built-in speakers, and just-installed LED recessed lighting that flows into the large dining space, perfect for entertaining around a stunning marble fireplace. Continue on to the fully equipped chef’s kitchen, swimming in natural light from multiple windows, featuring an open breakfast bar, ample storage space, elegant newly-tiled backsplash, white cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances including a 36” Viking 6-burner stove, Bosch dishwasher, Liebherr refrigerator/freezer, drawer microwave and customizable wine fridge. To complete this level, find additional closet space and an elegant half bathroom. Take the eye-catching center staircase to the second floor boasting a generous primary suite bedroom with a wall of custom closet space, more recessed lighting and an ensuite bathroom with a dual vanity, luxury Toto toilet, tiled floors and dual-head shower, frameless glass door, and whirlpool spa tub. Also on this floor find a South-facing den/family room/office with leaded glass windows, a fireplace and sliding glass doors to the private and serene deck surrounded by new planters with an automated watering system. Travel to the third level with natural light flooding through the large domed skylight and original 10 over 10 true divided light window, and find 2 more spacious, bright and open bedrooms and a shared full bathroom with pedestal sink and tub/shower. Go up one more flight of stairs to the lofted bedroom overlooking Locust Street, with ample closet space and an ensuite bathroom with tiled shower and vanity with storage. The lower level features natural light from full-sized, Southern-exposure windows, a carpeted flex space, playroom and mudroom area with separate access outdoor storage alcove, plus a front game room/lounge/exercise room and discrete laundry area. Also find a newly updated full bathroom with high-end Kohler fixtures and raindrop shower head. Deeded parking easily accessible through kitchen and basement entrances, with heated outdoor steps so no need to salt/shovel on those icy winter days! Dual zone HVAC. This home is a rare combination of size, style, and desirable location in the Greenfield catchment, steps from Rittenhouse Square, shopping, dining, and all that Center City has to offer!
