    Modern design, exceptional outdoor space, and an unbeatable location come together in this spacious 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence offering approximately 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Complete with a finished basement, private backyard, an expansive rooftop deck with sweeping Center City skyline views, and approximately 3 years remaining on the tax abatement, this home seamlessly blends sophisticated style with everyday functionality. From the moment you enter, the home's generous proportions and abundance of natural light make an immediate impression. Wide-plank hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, where an open-concept layout creates effortless sightlines from the living room to the dining area and kitchen. A marble-tiled fireplace anchors the living space, while oversized windows, a sliding glass door, and a dramatic skylight flood the home with sunlight throughout the day. Designed for both entertaining and daily living, the kitchen features two-tone shaker cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, a striking granite waterfall island, premium stainless steel appliances, and an eat-in dining area overlooking the backyard. Built-in speakers, recessed lighting, and thoughtful finishes elevate the home's contemporary design. A half bathroom completes the first floor. The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, a beautifully appointed hall bath, and a conveniently located laundry room. Occupying the entire third floor, the primary suite serves as a private retreat featuring tray ceilings, two oversized walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath complete with a double vanity, soaking tub, oversized glass shower, and abundant natural light. Continue upstairs to the wet bar before exiting onto the expansive rooftop deck—an exceptional extension of the home's living space. Whether entertaining guests, enjoying a quiet evening under the stars, or taking in the Philadelphia skyline, this private outdoor oasis is sure to become a favorite destination. The finished lower level offers exceptional flexibility with a fourth bedroom, full bathroom, generous storage, and a spacious recreation area ideal for a media room, home gym, playroom, or guest suite. Life here extends well beyond the walls of the home. Grab breakfast at the neighborhood's newest hotspot, Schmaltz, enjoy dinner and cocktails just steps away at Lillian's, or meet friends at the beloved American Sardine Bar. With Newbold's thriving dining scene continuing to evolve and easy access to East Passyunk, Graduate Hospital, and Center City, this is a location that offers the perfect balance of neighborhood charm and city convenience. Offering modern construction, generous living space, exceptional indoor-outdoor living, valuable tax savings, and one of South Philadelphia's most exciting neighborhoods, this home truly checks every box.
