Contemporary

Style, sophistication and exquisite taste have transformed and elevated this Center City home into an urban oasis rarely found. At the border of Rittenhouse & Graduate Hospital, this home was spectacularly remodeled in 2015 with a French contemporary flair by its visionary owner. From the gorgeous kitchen with floor to ceiling cabinetry to the primary suite with an enviable en-suite bath, the beauty of this home catches your eye with every step. Your private 1-car garage has abundant bonus storage shelving and cabinets and provides entry directly into your home. Lovely tiles lead you from the art-deco vestibule down the contemporary hallway into the first level room with gorgeous reclaimed hardwood floors. This space, with a separate entry, can serve as a third bedroom, an in-law, nanny or guest suite, or as an office thanks to a CMX2 zoning. A soundproofed ceiling adds to the privacy of this room. A private vestibule, a full bathroom and a large shelved closet are part of this spacious suite. Flowing from its huge sliding doors, the private garden features an acacia deck and offers a rare welcoming tranquil serenity. Cookout entertain or simply relax in the summer or cuddle up next to the fire pit on chilly spring and fall evenings. Entering the rest of the house through a clever pocket door, you discover the unique and grandiose perforated stainless steel stairwell as you hang your wrap in the self-lighting coat closet. Take in its striking lighting from the basement to the third floor, illuminating your way up to the main floor living space and into the magnificent open kitchen including a large dining area. Counter space and storage cupboards abound. The sublime quartz countertops are further highlighted by the one-of-a-kind painted mirror backsplash. The induction cooktop vents into a professional Miele hood above. A top-notch Bosch dishwasher, Whirlpool convection oven and built-in microwave lead you to a gorgeous Liebherr refrigerator, all blending together perfectly. Just beyond is a bar area with a convenient built-in wine fridge. Under-cabinet lighting adds to the luminosity and dramatic effect of the space, together with the counter’s remotely controlled LEDs for you to express whatever color your mood desires. This part of the counter with its bar stools will be perfect for gathering guests while you’re cooking. It also features a recessed drinking nook for pets to join in the festivities. Make your way past the elegant powder room to your huge great room. Double tilt-and-turn glass doors offer a gaze down on the patio area. A wall of shelving is perfect for displaying your favorite books and collectibles. A large hidden closet provides ample storage. Head up to the magnificent primary suite. Located in the rear portion of the home it too overlooks the lovely garden with tilt-and-turn windows. A huge wall of closet space provides for a large wardrobe. The en-suite luxury bath has double sinks, a private commode closet with built-in TOTO bidet, radiant heat flooring and a massive shower area with misting, rainfall, handheld euro-style, wall and ceiling shower features. The landing area provides even more storage and an uber-convenient stacked washer and dryer behind newly installed louvre doors. The third full bathroom is located next to the guest bedroom featuring its own huge finished closet space. A mini-split system on this level enhances heat and air conditioning. As if this home wasn’t ample enough there is also a large finished basement. Currently utilized as a workout area, it could easily be transformed into a home theater. Mechanicals are tucked into their own private closet and a wall of wine racks hold more than 150 bottles for wine connoisseurs. Pet lovers will rejoice with a dedicated drinking/feeding recessed zone under the kitchen counter and a custom doggy door in the 1st floor room. The owner had a pre-listing inspection completed and addressed. This home is truly magnificent.
