Property Description

For the discerning buyer seeking a residence of unparalleled character, this exquisite One Bedroom with a Den condominium in the picturesque and historic Washington Square West offers a rare opportunity to own a truly unique home. A departure from the ordinary, this residence is nestled within an elegant early 20th-century building, its façade adorned with the distinguished script of George T. Sale, a prominent real estate magnate of his time. From the moment you step inside, you are enveloped in an ambiance of refined Victorian charm, where 12-foot ceilings, intricate original moldings, and gleaming hardwood floors set the stage for sophisticated city living.The living room, a grand yet inviting space, is bathed in natural light from an original demi-lune window, adorned with custom blinds. A marble half-wall and marble flooring create the perfect showcase for your curated greenery—once the display window for historic real estate offerings, now an architectural highlight of the home. This spacious living area effortlessly accommodates multiple seating arrangements, allowing for a layout tailored to your aesthetic vision.

Seamlessly connected, the expansive dining area and open kitchen are designed for both intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. An original marble mantelpiece serves as a stunning focal point, while the layout ensures ample space for guests to mingle as you put the finishing touches on a home-cooked meal—or elegantly plate a catered feast.

Off the dining room, the full bath exudes timeless elegance, featuring a 1920s pedestal sink, original stained glass window, and a built-in linen closet. Down the hall, the private retreat awaits—an expansive 18'3" x 12'10" bedroom, complete with a walk-in closet housing a full-sized, stackable washer and dryer. A versatile bonus space off the bedroom offers endless possibilities as a study, gym, or serene reading nook.

A rare urban luxury, the shared backyard—which is virtually yours alone—offers a tranquil outdoor escape. Convenient access through the Irving Street alley allows for effortless grocery drop-offs, blending practicality with charm.Located in the heart of Washington Square West, this residence is a walker's paradise, mere blocks from acclaimed destinations such as Vedge restaurant, the Kimmel Center, and the Academy of Music. A short stroll takes you to the vibrant energy of Rittenhouse Square, the art galleries of Old City, and the serenity of Washington Square—all while preserving a sense of peace and retreat from the city's hustle.For those seeking a one-of-a-kind city pied-à-terre, this home is a rare offering—a seamless fusion of historic elegance, architectural distinction, and modern livability in one of Philadelphia's most coveted neighborhoods.
