Welcome to this spacious 2-3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home in the Academy House. The unit previously was a 3 bedroom, but a wall was removed to open the 3rd bedroom space into the main living area, which was currently used as an office and family room. A separated 3rd bedroom could be created again with minimal effort.Located in Rittenhouse Square, this home is in the prime center city location, close to shopping, dining, public transit, theaters and so much more.Enjoy the maintenance free living of this well maintained condo building with amenities including a 24-hour doorman, fitness center, pool/aquatic center, a large courtyard, etc. There is also the option for valet parking, for an additional cost, if available.One of the most stunning features of this A unit are the panoramic views that span from the North to the East, offering unique and jaw dropping views. This unit truly needs to be viewed in person to appreciate the views and the space- pictures don’t do it justice. The multiple walls of windows not only offer the amazing views, but also allow the natural light to flood in the home. Updates have been made to the unit including new flooring that was just installed, upgraded light fixtures, updated bathrooms, new shades, ceiling fans in the bedrooms, etc. You enter the unit into a large foyer with a double door closet, providing great storage options and an inviting entry. Continue to the living room that is oversized and runs along two sides of the unit, providing various seating options, as well as views. For example, you can have seating facing a TV in the first part and then a separate seating option looking at the view out of the windows.Connected to the living room is the dining room, which is strategically placed next to the kitchen. The updated kitchen provides great counter and cabinet space, and includes a separate wall oven, built-in microwave, cooktop and vent hood, to name a few of the great features. The warm tone cabinets are timeless and elegant, perfectly accented by the granite counters and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen can be accessed from the dining room side or the hall toward the entry, making it convenient yet semi-separated. In the hall is also a custom built wood china cabinet for even more storage as well as displaying special pieces.The previous 3rd bedroom space is now open to the dining and living areas and has a wall of built-in shelves, making it perfect for an office/study with enough room to also include a family room area.
