    What's special

    Designed by noted architect Louis Sauer, this innovative mid-century modern home boasts 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, private courtyard, Juliette balcony, roof deck, and partially finished basement - all located in the desirable McCall school catchment! Influenced by Japanese architecture, Sauer made use of all available space to create a home with an open, airy feel in the heart of Washington Square. Enter through a tiled foyer and step up into a living room that boasts a wood-burning fireplace and stained glass windows.The modern kitchen features granite counters and bar, plus abundant cabinet space. A bright dining room features beautiful built-in cabinetry, a Louis Poulsen and Poul Henningsen PH5 Pendant, and an immense dining room window with views into the private courtyard. On the second floor you'll find a spacious bedroom with generous closet space and ensuite bathroom with stone counters, full hall bathroom and linen closet, and two additional bedrooms. The third floor master suite offers the potential for a raised roof deck, abundant closet space, cathedral ceilings with beautiful Center City views, and ensuite bathroom. A partially finished basement provides even more space for living and entertaining with plenty of storage room. Located on a quiet, low-traffic street in Washington Square West, you'll be steps away from Whole Foods, the Italian Market, and Reading Terminal Market, in close proximity to entertainment like the Kimmel Center and multiple movie theatres, and central to greenspace like Segar Park, Louis Kahn Park, and Washington Square - the entire city is at your doorstep! Parking is available for an additional $50K - see Agent Notes.
