Property Description

Welcome to this pristine residence, one of just 37 contemporary townhomes designed by internationally acclaimed architect I.M. Pei, nestled on a quiet street in the heart of historic Society Hill. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history that blends timeless mid-century modern design with sophisticated, urban living.

This smart home was completely and elegantly renovated in recent years, with premium upgrades throughout, including all-new bathrooms and kitchen, wood flooring throughout ,a finished basement, custom built-ins, and so much more, offering turnkey luxury with enduring style.

Step inside to a bright, open floor plan filled with natural light. Rich, authentic hardwood floors run throughout, complementing the home's clean, modern aesthetic. The chef's kitchen is a true showstopper, equipped with high-end appliances, a large waterfall island, and custom wood cabinetry providing ample storage and generous counter space. It flows seamlessly into a spacious dining area that opens to a private backyard through wall-to-wall sliding glass doors, perfect for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. Also on this main level is a beautifully finished full bathroom, adding convenience and flexibility for guests or first-floor living.

Just beyond the garden lies your personal parking space, located in a central, beautifully landscaped courtyard behind the homes. At its center is the striking second casting of Gaston Lachaise's sensuous sculpture, “Floating Figure”, a unique and elegant focal point that anchors the community. Additional guest parking space available in this area.

One of the home's most remarkable features is the original curved central staircase, a sculptural masterpiece in itself, spanning all four floors and illuminated by a large overhead skylight. Truly a work of art.

The second floor boasts a formal living room with large windows, a wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, and sliding glass doors opening to a charming wrought-iron balcony. Also on this level are two spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and a beautifully appointed full bath. The third floor is a sun-drenched retreat, featuring a gracious primary suite with stunning views of the Ben Franklin Bridge, a custom-designed spa bath, and extensive closet space. Another large bedroom with wall-to-wall windows, and a dedicated laundry room complete this level.

The finished basement offers flexible living options, ideal for a home gym, media room, office, or guest space, along with a mechanical/storage room that adds practical functionality.

Situated in the highly regarded McCall Elementary catchment zone, this residence is just steps from the city's best offerings, including the award-winning Zahav restaurant, named the #1 restaurant in America. You're also moments from Philadelphia's premier dining, cultural institutions, parks, and hospitals such as Jefferson, Pennsylvania, and Cooper.

This home is more than a residence, it's an architectural treasure in one of Philadelphia's most desirable neighborhoods.
