Unit/Flat

Welcome to the residences at The Philadelphian, Unit B423. This Art Deco Styled building is charming and grand. Literally across the street from the world renown Philadelphia Museum of Art on Benjamin Franklin Parkway, the Art Museum neighborhood is bursting with culture, museums, greenspace and restaurants. Be greeted daily by a 24-hour dedicated doorperson, as you step into the stately lobby with concierge to assist with daily needs. Fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools, as well as a supermarket, restaurant, dry cleaners, laundry center, pharmacy , and free shuttle to center city are all convenient amenities available on site. Key fob only entry adds another level of comfort ascending to the 4th floor to tour the unit in the coveted B tower. This very large one bedroom, one bathroom unit boasts nearly 1200SF of space. Natural hardwood parquet floors, extend throughout. The space feels open and airy with a combined living and dining area, which leads to a private balcony with a North facing view. An outdoor place to have coffee and a breath of fresh air is wonderful. The kitchen has ample cabinet space with a standalone range and a dedicated built-in oven. Closets are large and plentiful, which allows the unit to remain orderly and organized in living areas. The "on trend", vintage postwar pink bathroom is retro fab, with an enigmatic ceramic custom floor tile interspersed with muted green accents. The bedroom is expansive. Wall to wall windows drape the northern extremity and the room can host a king sized bed with no trouble at all. We envision this unit as a fantastic primary residence or pied-à-terre for someone who values convenience, security, proximity to arts and culture, or a fitness enthusiast. Imagine walking out the door daily to walk, run or bike along Kelly Drive next to the river past the houses on Boathouse row. Imagine running up the steps like Rocky Balboa everyday looking at the skyline fists raised. Experience the variety of attractions featured at the Barnes Foundation, Rodin Museum, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Eastern State Penitentiary, or Franklin Institute. Find a host of walkable retail and restaurants, and there is a Whole Foods Market right down the street. This is a great unit in a fantastic building! The Philadelphian condo fee cover gas, water and electric as well as basic cable and common area maintenance.
