More than just a home, this once in a lifetime opportunity is more like a compound! Consisting of three adjoining lots made up of the primary home, a versatile detached carriage house, and a massive fully landscaped private outdoor oasis, this setting is simply unheard of in an urban setting. Occupying a 109 x 33 foot gorgeous piece of land straddling Northern Liberties and Fishtown in Old Kensington, this is a rare opportunity to invest in one of the most rapidly appreciating neighborhoods in the city without doing any of the work yourself. Not your typical renovation, this property was completely renovated in all the right ways, with no expense spared in 2017 by the current owners, while preserving tons of the original character. The 2600+ sq. foot main home has 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, new mechanicals, 2 HVAC zones, 2 gas fireplaces, and complete Smart Home technology with surround sound. Enter through a tiled vestibule into a spacious open first floor with high ceilings, beautiful moldings, fantastic natural light, oversized windows, hardwood floors, gas fireplace, and built-in shelving. The dining area has lovely bay windows and the eat-in chef’s kitchen features quartz countertops and island, tiled backsplash, dual sinks for cleaning and prep, and open shelving. A powder room with a pedestal sink completes the first floor. Sliding glass doors lead to the breathtaking patio, garden and backyard with gorgeous plantings-the urban gardener’s dream and perfect for entertaining. The second floor has 3 spacious bedrooms, one with an en-suite tiled bathroom and exposed brick wall. A full laundry room and large hall bathroom with frameless glass shower also occupy this floor. The spacious primary bedroom suite occupies the entire upper floor and is complete with gas fireplace, exposed brick wall, private sitting area and large luxury, spa-like bathroom with soaking tub and oversized frameless glass shower–inspired by the owners’ travels to luxury hotels around the world. A full basement provides ample storage. The versatile carriage house provides an additional 566 square feet of finished living space, complete with electricity and HVAC. It makes an ideal home office, artist or music studio, or home gym, or could be converted to a rental property, AirBNB or guest suite to back into a 2+ car garage if the next owner chooses. A second floor could also be added with access to the carriage house from the back. This property occupies one of the most picturesque blocks in the neighborhood, convenient to many restaurants, bars and shops with easy access to Center City via the Market Frankford Line or I-95. And there is approximately 7 years left on the tax abatement! This is definitely not your cookie cutter home. You truly have to see it to believe it, so schedule your showing today!
