Location. Style. Light. Comfort. Affordability. This unit in The Castings has it all. Located on the east-facing side of a well-run condo building with very reasonable fees, this apartment is a little gem in Old City. The Castings is a 19th-century former foundry building in the premier section of Old City with access to all that the neighborhood has to offer, while being tucked away on a charming cobblestone street. The secure entrance to the building is through a dramatic light-filled foyer into a spacious lobby highlighting the history of the building. Soaring ceilings, massive beams, exposed brick, and many examples of the carved wooden industrial patterns are on display. Off the lobby is a common courtyard for when moments of outdoor respite are calling. The elevator takes you to the second floor and opens to a wall of glass overlooking the lobby. 218 is the first unit off this mezzanine. Stepping through the door is stepping into a light-filled space ready for you to move right in. White walls and blonde floors maximize the natural light flooding in through the large modern windows. The hallway features a deep coat closet with rear storage. On the right is the kitchen with white Shaker-style cabinets, granite counters, and quality appliances. The kitchen opens to the spacious living room and features a 3-seat peninsula for casual meals at home. The living area has ample room for lounging, screening films, and visits from friends. Opposite the living room is a spacious, light-filled bedroom with room for a king bed and end tables. It has a nice-sized closet and room for a dresser and chair as well. Adjacent to the kitchen is a recently updated and beautifully maintained bathroom with a cabinet sink and marble shower. The location is really fantastic. On the next block is Riverwards, arguably the best market in Center City. Around the corner is Cafe Ole, an anchor of the Old City community for decades. 3rd Street abounds with boutiques, galleries, a great hardware store, and other fine purveyors. Just a couple of blocks east is the Delaware Waterfront, including the Race Street Pier. There is so much this property has to offer, and yes, for under $250,000! Come see this while it is still on the market!
