A perfect fit with the streetscapes of Rittenhouse Square, this brick townhouse rises three stories and offers a floor plan and contemporary finishes well suited to how many of us live today -- enjoy a main level with great flow to a private patio garden and note multiple offices for those who work from home. Enjoy the luxury of an attached one-car garage with interior access to a light-filled, expansive floor plan with elevator serving all levels. The grand-scale entry level offers a cook’s kitchen with a wealth of storage, big island and five-burner gas cooktop. The kitchen opens to the dining area as well as a casual seating area with fireplace and built-ins. Step outside to a private garden oasis with an exquisite waterfall. A formal living room on the second level is yet another beautifully designed, airy space with treetop views, built-ins and a second fireplace. On this level and separated by a landing with excellent storage is the primary bedroom suite. Overlooking the garden, this is a very restful, light-infused room with a wall of built-ins, multiple closets with organizers, French doors opening to a Juliette balcony and a deluxe bathroom. The bathroom is designed for two – two toilet rooms, two sinks, an oversized seamless glass shower and a Maax soaking tub finish this marble retreat. The third floor, with a landing topped with three skylights, presents two en suite bedrooms, an office and additional storage. As a bonus, the lower level is finished to include a home office lined in library shelving complete with rolling ladder. A wet bar with wine cooler and undercounter refrigerator completes this space. An adjacent full bath suggests this could also be an au pair suite/4th bedroom. In the Greenfield School catchment with access to both Rittenhouse and Fitler Squares, this townhouse is an outstanding choice for the buyer seeking a residence that balances design and quality throughout its 6,400 square feet of living space.
