A zen, residential sanctuary in the heart of Washington Square! Located on one of Philadelphia's most instagrammed and sought-after blocks, this quiet unit is a perfect combination of charm and luxury. The efficient kitchen features Shaker-style cabinetry, Thermador cook top and range, Bosch dishwasher, Grohe faucets, an oversized sink, granite countertops and breakfast bar. The combination living room dining room area has recessed lights, a corner wood burning fireplace and French doors leading to a large, leafy, private, quiet brick patio. Existing patio furniture is included in the rental if requested. The second level features two bedrooms and a bathroom with Kohler fixtures, faucets and tile. The owner used the larger bedroom for her office, but the space is perfect for a spacious 2nd bedroom and is having new carpeting installed. The third bedroom (now a guest room) is an ideal home office/den. Large closets are found in both bedrooms. The large, sunny primary suite is well appointed with custom moldings, Luxe weave grasscloth wallpaper, built-in Gersch cabinetry and wool carpeting. The oversized custom walk-in closet along with an incredible bathroom is highlighted by a separate water closet, Grohe shower fixtures, under counter mounted sink, soapstone counters, slate floors and walls plus Rejuvenation light fixtures. Tons of bathroom storage exists with a separate 3-drawer vanity. Truly one of the greatest showers in the city with incredible water pressure. The finished basement features brand new carpeting and offers plenty of space for playroom, den, or simply dry storage. A laundry area and all mechanicals are also located in the basement. A convenient parking garage is located within a block, as well as Whole Foods, Acme, CVS, Seger Park, and many lively restaurants and bars. This unit is perfectly positioned on a quiet, no through street, to walk anywhere in the city. Don't miss an incredible opportunity to rent a gorgeous well-maintained (and much loved) home, as they rarely hit the market!
