Contemporary

Part of the Internationally Acclaimed work of Onion Flats...the Berks/Hewson "Twins" are the First LEED-H GOLD Certified project in the City of Philadelphia!! Enter the wide open floor plan of a well designed & built home, not your typical "vanilla box" new construction. The covered "rain screen" entry protects you from the elements as you enter, collect your mail and enter the home. An over-sized planter that collects rainwater for its growth via a "rain chain" is also the disguise for your exterior secured trash & recycling center, so you never need to store/haul garbage in the home. The interior "mud room" calls you to sit on the custom bench, remove your shoes & "rack" them before entering the living space. A custom fabricated steel "waterfall wall" leads you past the floating stair, into the kitchen w/4 seat counter height bar complete w/updated contemporary finishes & appliances & a large "eyes on the street" window. The over-sized living/dining space is designed to be as flexible as you like with a nook for dining, reading, or lounging. The first floor flows perfectly to the private slate garden with custom steel planters/privacy fencing. A finished basement w nearly 9' ceilings, new plush carpet, & full bathroom provides the ideal set up for a home theatre or 4th bedroom. The Master Suite is located on the second floor w an over-sized room (& office nook), walk-in/walk-through closet & dressing room, & private deck overlooking the garden. Master Bath offers an over-sized shower w 2 shower valves/faucets, frameless glass enclosure, double vanity, mirrored backsplash, & great storage. The balance of the second floor offers another reading/office nook w entry to an exterior front deck, additionally the Washer/Dryer & HVAC units are centralized in this space. The 3rd floor features 2 more over-sized bedrooms both w large closets & private decks, a skylight bathroom w glass shower/tub enclosure & custom made double vanity, storage, & linen closet. The private vegetative green roof is also accessed from this floor and provides the most amazing, unobstructed views of Center City, from the Delaware River to the fireworks at the Art Museum. This home is so well done and priced incredibly reasonably...we are looking forward to you seeing and loving it, and soon making it your own!
