2034 ARCH ST #S Philadelphia, PA 19103

The lush, professionally landscaped gated courtyard entrance of Walden Walk is a lovely pocket of Zen in the heart of a bustling Center City neighborhood. Equally as serene is this light-flooded condo with warm wood accents, a woodburning fireplace and sweet private patio. With the space of a house and the ease of a condo, the bilevel layout offers a formal front entry with coat closet that opens to the recently renovated kitchen on the left or leads straight ahead to the open living space. In the kitchen, warm 42-inch maple Shaker-style cabinets are beautifully paired with gray subway tile backsplash, veined quartz countertops and island, and a slate LG appliance package including slide-in range with dual oven. The oversize courtyard-facing window with custom top-down shade allows for both light and peaceful views without sacrificing privacy. Exit the kitchen to a spacious dining area that overlooks the sunken living room, where double sliding doors with transoms provide floor-to-ceiling views of the private patio on one wall, and a terra cotta tiled fireplace flanked by niches spans another. A true urban retreat, the patio offers room for grilling and bistro dining amid a perimeter planting bed. Back inside, there's a powder room opposite the stairs that lead up to the three bedrooms, where newer plush carpet runs throughout. The master suite at the front has four closets, courtyard views and a spacious bath with wood-grain marble-topped vanity. The rear suite has a nicely appointed bath with ceramic tile floor and shower surround plus a double-wide closet in the bedroom. The third bedroom is a great option for a home office or guests. In addition to the many closets smartly placed throughout, there is a large storage unit accessed through the communal garage (conveniently right in front of your parking space). Feel free to leave the car parked, as you're just steps from Center City office towers, Parkway museums and Rittenhouse restaurants and shopping--and notably in the Greenfield elementary catchment.
