    Original character combines with modern design for the best of both worlds at 514 Cypress St. Nestled in historic Society Hill, this 3-story home offers 3 beds, 2.5 baths, an office space, a finished basement, and a private yard. A picturesque cobblestone street leads to the residence's towering red brick facade, accented by navy blue shutters and a lively planter box. Stepping inside, you're welcomed by a foyer with custom built-ins, hooks, and a bench. The home's first level was thoughtfully renovated 3 years ago, with a focus on preserving its centuries-old charm. Off the main hall, the gleaming gourmet kitchen sits prominently at the front of the home, fitted with bespoke wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances, including a professional-style extra-wide oven-range, and a contrasting hexagon and subway tile backsplash. Random-width hardwood floors extend past the center staircase to the bright, airy flex room that can be used for living or dining. A gas fireplace, spanning most of the rear wall flanked by tall windows, anchors the space. Out back, there's a secluded garden oasis that's sure to be your go-to spot for relaxing, gardening, and cooking out. A built-in grill with gas hook-ups and a secure breezeway from the street allows for easy entertaining. On the finished lower level, you'll find a carpeted den, perfect for movie night, a beverage center, a half bathroom, laundry, and storage. At the front of the second level, chair rail trims a large, bright bedroom suite featuring built-ins, window seats, and an attached full bathroom. An additional bedroom at the rear has a built-in Murphy bed and desk. The top level has another large bedroom, a full hall bathroom with a steam shower, and an open bonus space ideal for an office, fitness, or hobbies. 514 Cypress St's highly sought-after Society Hill location earns a Walk Score of 97! It's only a few blocks from Center City, yet it has a small neighborhood feel. Nearby, South St is lined with popular markets, shops, and restaurants. You can spread out at idyllic Washington Sq Park or get active at Seger Park, both a short stroll away. Plus, there's easy access to Pennsylvania and Jefferson Hospitals, Independence Mall, public transit, I-95, and South Jersey. Schedule your private tour today!
