Welcome home to this beautiful modern brownstone on one of the most coveted and picturesque tree-lined streets in the Art Museum Area. The recently renovated home is filled with original character and modern updates. It features 4 bedrooms plus a den, 2 full bathrooms and 2 powder rooms. This is the perfect live/work oasis with enough space for each family member to have their own office area. It’s also well-suited for live-in childcare. Enter through the vestibule with Hygge & West graphic wallpaper and Schoolhouse electric light fixtures. Original wide plank knotty pine hardwood floors follow throughout the home. The formal sitting room features the original marble mantle, an antique crystal chandelier originally from the Plaza hotel in New York, and custom floor-to-ceiling built-in book shelves. Next, move into the separate dining room and newly renovated kitchen area with powder room. The kitchen was newly renovated in 2019 and features heated floors, tasteful blue cabinetry, butcher block counter tops and built-in bench, along with midcentury modern fixtures and hardware. Behind the kitchen is a separate breakfast nook with French doors that leads out to the charming English style brick garden with ivy covered walls— your very own outdoor sanctuary perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. The delightfully wallpapered powder room is conveniently located in the breakfast area, with easy access to the garden and the rest of the first floor. Move up the dramatic curved staircase with gorgeous original moldings to the second floor to find the Primary Bedroom Suite at the front of the house and another large bedroom to the rear, with its own powder room and full-sized laundry. The Primary Suite is bathed in natural light and features a cedar planked walk-in closet. The en suite bathroom has been fully renovated and features a soaking tub, a separate stall shower, a modern floating vanity and heated floors. Up another floor and you’ll find two additional bedrooms and a den (which could easily be converted to a bedroom) and a large full bathroom. The entire floor features abundant natural light and original character. The full tile bathroom features a claw foot soaking tub, pedestal sink and a separate glass enclosed stall shower. There is also a ladder access to the roof from this floor, ideal for a future roof deck project. The house features beautiful vintage doors and light fixtures throughout, and new cedar closets in all of the bedrooms. The sellers have lovingly enhanced the home to include many convenient upgrades such as built-in book shelves, double paned windows and efficient LED lighting. Street parking is easy. With our homes doing more work than ever, this space is well suited to be home, office, playground, restaurant and coffee shop for as long as you need. A short stroll away from Whole Foods, Target, Vetri Pizza, The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Sister Cities Park, The Philadelphia Free Library, the Schuykill River Path, Boat House Row, and the Amtrak station, this home is a “Walker’s Paradise” (and Bikers!) with a Walkscore of 94. This cozy and charming opportunity won’t last long.
