About This Home

The home you've been waiting for is finally here. Introducing 239 South 46th St. in the Penn Alexander Catchment. A fully modernized home that highlights its historic charm through careful renovation and thoughtful design choices. This spacious home features a primary suite plus four more bedrooms, with an option to complete another lower-level suite. The home's historic character is introduced as you enter the vestibule with beautifully restored original wainscoting and handsome wood doors. Entering the main floor a warming gas/wood fireplace with a beautiful mantel greets you in the living room. Passing by the powder room and an expandable dining area, you enter the kitchen that is the envy of every home chef. A large island creates the perfect space to prep and entertain guests. Custom granite countertops, plenty of storage, vented hood, wine fridge, additional prep sink, and plenty of lighting make this a joy to create meals and memories. Step out to the backyard to find a cozy patch of green yard shaded by a mature deciduous tree. Up the striking staircase to the second level that features a bright and spacious primary suite. It features west facing windows and a gas fireplace. The bathroom features double vanity, and heated towel racks. Two more sizable bedrooms and another full bathroom are also on this level. The third floor features an open den space, perfect for a cozy tv room or even an exercise space. Two more bedrooms and a hall bathroom round out this level. A bonus attic space could be fully finished for a playroom or used in its' current condition as a storage space. The lower level is finished with a front room, a great laundry room, and a mostly finished bedroom suite that includes a roughed out bathroom. So many thoughtful upgrades have been added to the home to make it a comfortable space including full smart home features, spray foam insulation, double-paned insulated windows, Brazilian oak floors on the first floor and original pine floors on the upper levels, two-zoned HVAC, Yamaha ceiling speakers on the first and third floors, and so much more! Conveniently situated to take advantage of all the neighborhood has to offer, this is the perfect place to call home!
