Historic meets modern at this stylish South Kensington condo, literally. The home weaves its way through a historic row home and a modern new construction next door. Unique and original details remain throughout and do not stop at the massive exposed brick wall that runs the length of both floors. The painstaking rehab left intact the charming details you want while upgrading the kitchen and bathrooms with warm, modern touches. The open layout kitchen and living space, anchored by an eastern facing, designer's dream half moon window, features concrete counters, a slab island, shaker-style cabinetry and top of the line appliances. With three bedrooms and two full bathrooms spread over two floors, there is ample space to spread out as a family or with a collection of roommates. The unit is accessible by its own private entrance composed of a gorgeous, oversized double glass door and adorned vestibule dating back to the 40s. Outside the front door is the industrial-cool landscape of South Kensington. You are within walking distance to Helm BYOB (your new neighbors), Reanimator Coffee, Eeva Pizza and Natural Wine, Human Robot Brewing, Tufas climbing gym, and more. Two blocks south is Girard Ave where you?ll find the jolly green trollies rumbling past. A few stops east to Front and Girard and the heart of Fishtown, or westward to the Broad St Line make this home ideally situated for a conscientious Center City commuter. Outside the back door, in addition to your own private outdoor area, enjoy the expansive shared patio which connects the two buildings in the association and all the residents within. The condo association maintains, illuminates and ensures the interior and exterior common spaces including landscaping. Amenities include bicycle parking, private entrances, professional management, and the shared garden. This one-of-a-kind home can be delivered vacant at the end of May. Currently, there are two separate leases for two of the 3 bedrooms. Both are $950/month.
