    Welcome to residence 17A at The Ellington, a beautifully appointed 17th-floor corner residence offering approximately 1,100 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space in one of Rittenhouse Square's most desirable full-service condominium buildings. Positioned at the end of the hallway, this sought-after corner unit offers exceptional privacy while showcasing breathtaking south and west-facing views of Center City. Expansive windows in every room flood the condo with natural light throughout the day, enhanced by custom window treatments that perfectly complement the unit's bright and airy atmosphere. Spanning a single level, the thoughtfully designed floor plan begins with two oversized side-by-side coat closets in the entry foyer. To the left is a spacious secondary bedroom featuring soaring ceilings, a large closet, and spectacular southern views. Adjacent is a full bathroom with hallway access. On the opposite side of the entryway is the generously sized primary suite, which offers dual closets and a private en-suite bathroom, creating a comfortable retreat separate from the main living spaces. Just outside the bedrooms, the hallway leads to a conveniently located laundry closet before opening into the expansive living and dining room. Framed by dramatic south and west-facing windows, the open-concept living area is filled with sunlight and offers captivating skyline views that make you feel connected to the city below. Warm-toned hardwood flooring, high ceilings, and crisp white trim create a timeless and inviting aesthetic throughout. The kitchen seamlessly anchors the living space and features classic white inset cabinetry, stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, an electric cooktop, generous counter space, and a breakfast bar with seating. The adjacent dining area easily accommodates everyday dining or entertaining, while the open layout creates an effortless flow throughout the home. This residence features one of the most desirable two-bedroom, two-bathroom layouts in the building, with larger bedrooms than many comparable units, abundant closet space, central air, and an in-unit washer and dryer. The Ellington offers an exceptional full-service lifestyle with 24-hour security, a fitness center, a resident lounge/club room, and optional private storage rentals. Located in the heart of Rittenhouse Square, you'll enjoy immediate access to Philadelphia's finest restaurants, boutique shopping, cafés, cultural attractions, and vibrant nightlife. With a Walk Score of 100 and easy access to 30th Street Station, major hospitals, universities, and Philadelphia International Airport, the location is truly second to none.
