    What's special

    Stunningly and thoughtfully updated 2 BR 2 BA in the heart of Society Hill. This spacious and airy home offers the best of both worlds ? the convenience and ease of condo living with the feeling of a single family home, complete with a private entrance, generous open layout, private deck, and no upstairs neighbors. Meticulously maintained and 100% move in ready, it checks all the boxes ? beautiful cook's kitchen, spectacular entertaining space, abundant natural light, private outdoor space, hardwood floors throughout, custom window treatments, custom lighting, ample closet space ? all in an amazing location. The dramatic living / dining room instantly impresses with vaulted ceilings and huge windows that face both east and west to provide tremendous light throughout the day. This grand living space, combined with a smartly designed open kitchen and striking custom wine bar with storage for 200 bottles make this the perfect home for entertaining. Second bedroom on the main level (currently used as a den) faces the serene courtyard and features custom built cherry wood bookshelves and a large walk-in closet with closetmaid system. Upstairs, the thoughtfully designed master suite offers a large quiet bedroom, generously sized custom walk in closet, master bath and laundry. Complete with sliders to the nicely sized private deck overlooking the courtyard, it's the perfect retreat at the end of a long day. The deck is accessible from the hallway so guests need not walk through the bedroom to enjoy the outdoor space. Gardening and enjoying music on the deck are made easy with water and electrical service and the retractable awning keeps the space comfortable on even the hottest days. No detail has been spared in this truly distinctive home. In addition to making beautiful design updates, seller has installed numerous smart upgrades to save energy, increase comfort, and add peace of mind - motorized solar window shades, blackout draperies, ceiling fans, custom closet system, composite tile decking, new security system, new hot water heater, new dual fuel range with five gas burners and electric convection oven, new garbage disposal. Professionally managed condo association with dedicated community manager maintains all common elements including air conditioning compressors, sidewalks, walkways, exterior stairs and landings, doors, windows and roofs as well as the courtyard (which will be redesigned and replanted later this year). Don't miss this Society Hill gem!
