Just Sold!

Located on one of the most picturesque, tree-lined streets in Rittenhouse Square, this historic townhome combines modern comforts to the classic, old-world elegance of Philadelphia’s past. The charm of this residence truly begins outside on Waverly Street. Voted as the ‘Most Beautiful Street in Philadelphia’ by Philly Mag, this block is known as Ringgold Place which is on the National Historic Registry. As you walk up to the home, take notice of the bright blue shutters and lovely flower boxes that adorn the classic brick facade. There is a secondary, lower entrance into the home for extra convenience. The charm continues as you make your way up the marble front staircase and enter to find a spacious living area with original hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, built-in custom shelving and an inviting window bench, the perfect reading nook or space to enjoy a morning coffee. The oversized windows above usher in an abundance of south facing light. Continuing on to the first level you’ll find an updated kitchen with light, contemporary, brand new granite countertops, plenty of cabinet storage, a dining area, a combo washer/dryer and access to a private and spacious brick patio; ideal for entertaining in the warmer summer months. Heading upstairs, find the first of two bedrooms. Both bedrooms feature an en-suite bathroom and two large closest. The generously sized bedrooms could easily accommodate a king size bed and space for furniture. The bathrooms are both classic and fit the home perfectly. This home is located just blocks from Rittenhouse square park and walking distance to CHOP, Jefferson, the financial district and all the thousands of restaurants and stores that Center City living boasts.
