This spacious townhome offers city living in an ideal Rittenhouse location with some incredible perks: an attached garage, multiple outdoor spaces, fantastic natural light and a great use of space throughout the generous square footage. Enter from the street or garage into a hallway with terracotta tile flooring and two coat closets. Take a few steps down to a large private home office, media or guest room with powder room. Or take a few steps up to get to the main living levels, which have oak floors, timeless finishes and custom built-ins throughout. First up is the extended U-shaped kitchen, which offers abundant storage via custom solid cherry flat-front Medallion cabinetry with dovetail construction and solid wood pull-out organizers; ceramic tile backsplash; Corian countertops with an integrated drainboard and undermount sink; stainless steel KitchenAid French-door fridge and range hood that vents out; Kenmore slide-in range with convection oven; and LG dishwasher. Andersen sliders open to a large Trex deck with pergola and built-in bench seating along the perimeter. Up a half-flight of stairs is the living room with soaring ceilings, two dramatic oversized windows with top-down shades, a working fireplace, wet bar, and two sets of custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins. The next level is the primary suite featuring two oversized windows with top-down shades, a full wall of closets in the spacious bedroom, and an oversize storage vanity and Kohler fixtures in the ceramic tile bathroom. On the top floor is a hallway with a functioning skylight with retractable shade, a laundry closet with Asko frontloaders, a linen closet and a bedroom on either end. The large rear bedroom makes as good a candidate for a primary as the second floor suite–it has gorgeous light from Pella sliders to a balcony and two large closets flanking a niche with built-in storage; it is adjacent to the hall bath, which features a double vanity and Kohler toilet and bidet. The generously sized front bedroom has two large windows and a full wall of storage via two closets as well as built-in shelving tucked to one side. The perfect location puts Rittenhouse Square shopping, dining and entertainment at your fingertips and is in the Greenfield elementary school catchment area.
