Weekend Open House Roundup (6/21 – 22): I Wanna Be a Millionaire
I normally theme these roundups around a certain neighborhood, but this one’s going to be different. I’m not even going to mince words – I felt like looking at some pictures of fancy houses, and so that’s what I did! All the listings I scooped for this weekend’s open house list are in the seven-figure ballpark, either just above or just below $1,000,000. Savor the lovely, lovely real estate porn, and, if you get a chance, go visit one or more of these magnificent manses. You never know – your next home might be on this list!

Rittenhouse Square
7bd/4ba, 2,968 sq ft
$1,100,000
Open House: 6/22 (Sunday), 11am – 1pm
The very model of a modern, majorly awesome rowhouse.
Kitty not included, unfortunately. Luckily, the kitchen’s still awfully pretty!
Love the spiral staircase and rich colors of the bannisters and runner – totally luxe.
This is a bedroom made for sleeping in, daydreams, and writing poetry in bed on rainy days, That’s what I’d do here, anyway.
As a certifiable bibliophile, those built-in bookshelves are the stuff of fantasy! Is this an ideal office/study, or what?
This precious bricked patio is just the retreat you’ll welcome after a long day or on a sleepy weekend morning.
800 S 19th St
Graduate Hospital
3bd/3ba, 3,172 sq ft
$997,000
Open House: 6/22 (Sunday) 12 – 1pm
The sleek entrance to this home is the perfect complement to the stylish nest inside!
I could probably say something pithy here, but instead I’ll just gawp at those luscious light fixtures for a little while longer…!
The windows are big, the light is outstanding, and the views of Grad Hospital are splendid. Living is fantastic in this living room.
The layout of this one is just great – everything has a (sunny, spacious) place.
Marble, mirrors, and dark wood: this master bath has style to spare!
…and now, for the cherry on top. Just check out this view. Come on!

Garage!!
“Airy” gets a lot of play in real estate listings, but this is the honest goods.
Those appliances! Those cabinet and drawer pulls! THAT SUBWAY TILE BACKSPLASH. I just developed a serious room crush.
What will you do with all this room? With your own personal touches, anything is possible.
That built-in vanity is calling your name! I mean, it’s definitely calling mine. But I’m sure that I heard yours as well.
That mocha tile is like the living definition of “sexy.”

The Symphony House is the ultimate in Center City grandeur. You’ll love living here,
The living room is another fantastic space, eminently roomy with a wide-open floorplan.
Cook like a pro, or just make believe as you flip your grilled cheese – this gourmet kitchen makes it all possible.
Oh, the view. /swoon
I’ve loving the noveau-Baroque thing going on in this bathroom.
Now this is what I call a building amenity. There’s also a tasting room attached.

Queen Village

At the corner of traditional and modern-luxe: this 5th Street stunner is waiting for someone to turn it into a home!
The natural light situation in this home is amazing. Talk about bright ideas!
The kitchen was still under construction at the time of this snap, as you can see. Pretty sure the portents are all fabulous, though!
Roomy closets, shiny hardwoods, an airy palette, and plenty of sunshine? Sweet dreams will be plentiful in this master suite.
Don’t you just love that “new home” smell?
