823 N NEWKIRK ST Philadelphia, PA 19130

Owned by an architect and designer, this 2 bedroom, newly renovated gem has maximum charm and the latest blend of old and new finishes everywhere you look. Tucked away on a quiet street in the Art Museum area close to Boathouse Row and Fairmount Park, the handsome original facade offers original brownstone steps and window boxes on all levels. Enter into the living room with wide plank white oak floors, an exposed brick wall, custom-built fireplace (decorative) for a focal point, plus mid century-modern style light fixture. The 2nd floor skylight installed by the Seller over the staircase means the middle of the first floor is flooded with sunlight, an unusual attribute in a townhouse. Continue on into the custom, eat-in kitchen with gorgeous, plentiful cabinetry, a stunning mini-herringbone tile backsplash, concrete look quartz countertop, stainless steel appliances, and the continuation of the exposed brick walls. Huge French doors bring more light in and afford views of the inviting landscaped garden with built-in planters, Spanish cedar slat fencing and marble chip patio. The main bedroom is open, airy and peaceful. The designer bathroom includes black, hex tiled flooring and white subway tile tub surround. And the 2nd bedroom/office/den is equally as charming. A full, unfinished basement is a relaxed space for all your projects, laundry, storage, plus a whole-house water filtration and softening system. All in all, this home is sure to please!
