608 Spruce St

Philadelphia, PA 19106

This dignified federal facade in the heart of town opens into a spectacularly reimagined interior, where open floor plans allow light to to grace every surface! Back gardens and PARKING make the home gorgeous and convenient! Enter the large living room off of leafy Spruce Street. This space overlooks the dramatic sunken dining, kitchen, and secondary living space. The dining room is the perfect hosting space, with a cathedral-like expanse above it, with a skylight, mezzanine, and gallery looking down upon it and a two-story fireplace. Adjacent is the superbly designed Bulthaup kitchen with stainless and stone counter tops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a 6 burner with grill Viking range and double oven, a Gaggenau freezer & wine fridge, a Miele dishwasher and a trash compactor. Up the stairs, through the gallery, the office is surrounded on two sides by the home's luscious garden, seen through magnificently large, modern windows, giving the feeling one is nearly outside. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite contains two fireplaces with traditional mantels, a spa-quality bathroom, and an elegant sitting room. Down the hall is a soaking tub and a laundry room with a walk-in closet. The third level holds a home gym and across the hall a private suite containing two more bedrooms and a two floor living room with wet bar and dramatic fireplace. Outside, the owner has cultivated a Mediterranean-style garden of trellises supporting exploding hibiscus, along with, rhododendron, zinnea, grasses, and planters surrounding an outdoor table. The area features a cobblestone driveway for two cars with a garage door that lets out onto quiet, cobblestoned Cypress St. The home is a treat to see, and a delight to call home!
