Prominently standing as a testament to Philadelphia's storied history dating back to 1803, 725 Spruce St is a large 3.5-story home offering 4 bedrooms + 2 dormer-bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, an idyllic private courtyard/GARDEN with 2-CAR PARKING, and a street-to-street lot sat in the heart of vibrant Society Hill. Its rich original character is waiting to be combined with modern updates to create a one-of-a-kind forever home. The towering front exterior displays classic curb appeal in its red brick facade and powder blue shutters. Inside, you're welcomed by a foyer and coat closet. Hardwood floors extend across the expansive, open main level, while crown molding trims the soaring ceilings. A marble fireplace anchors the front living area, where a pair of tall windows provide natural light. The dining area is made for entertaining with space to accommodate a table for 8+. Past the staircase and a powder room, the large kitchen has a full suite of appliances, bright windows, and a breakfast nook. One of the home's highlights is surely the serene private courtyard that acts as a peaceful escape from the city's hustle. It has a large paver section for barbecues and al fresco dining, along with a secure, oversized 2-car parking pad. Up on the second, the hotel-like primary suite at the front has 3 tall windows, a fireplace, a walk-in closet, and an attached full bathroom. Down the hall is a study with built-ins and another bedroom suite. The third level has two more bedrooms flanking the third full bathroom. A pair of dormer bedrooms and a closet are on the top level. Completing the home is a huge basement where you'll find the laundry and tons of storage. 725 Spruce St's utilities include dual-zone HVAC and 2 gas water heaters. In addition to everything inside, this highly sought-after Washington Square West location earns a Walk Score of 97! It's only a few blocks from Center City, yet it has a small neighborhood feel. Top-rated restaurants, friendly local shops, and lively entertainment fill the surrounding streets. You can spread out at sprawling Washington Square Park or get active at Seger Park, both nearby. Pennsylvania Hospital is steps away, Jefferson Hospital is close, and there's easy access to public transit, I-95, and South Jersey. Schedule your tour today!
