The CENTERfold: Cliff Lee's Ravishing Rittenhouse Square Condo

Today’s post focuses on none other than Philadelphia Phillie Cliff Lee’s posh Rittenhouse Square condo which hit the MLS yesterday with an asking price of 6.9 million. Cliff and his wife purchased the condo in January of 2011 for just under 5mil.

It’s been a while since we looked into the CENTERfold, but trust me – this condo is worth the wait.

Rittenhouse Square is, of course, a byword for high-end living in Center City, and this home is no exception. You should know by now how I go gaga for a beautiful condo on the Ritt, and this one is nothing short of spellbinding. With an address directly on the Square and a near-perfect Walk Score, there’s no better way to experience everything that this gorgeous, big ol’ city has to offer.

This three bedroom condo has three bathrooms. It’s a full-floor residence sprawling across over 4,100 square feet. Every exposure is perfect here – north, south, east, and west. Enjoy direct elevator access right to your front door!

First of all, I absolutely love how light and bright this home is. Everything is painted a clean, crisp white, which really pops with all the sunlight pouring in. The rooms have great flow, so to say. An open floor plan is welcoming and inviting, perfect for entertaining guests or simply bringing the family closer together. The living room is sun-drenched and elegant. There’s a family room for bonus living space (score!). The kitchen is a knockout, with shining stainless appliances, sexy minimalist dark cabinetry, and countertops of ooh-la-la white granite. There are three bedroom suites, including a master bedroom with closets big enough to live in and an ultra-luxe ensuite bath.
