The CENTERfold: Off to the Race S(t.)
Where gracious Logan Square living meets state-of-the-art everything, you have 2132 Race Street. Located at the ultra-exclusive, mega-hip King’s Court Mansion townhomes, this home bears the clout of one of Center City West’s best addys, as well as glorious craftsmanship and design.
This beauty sports four bedrooms and four bathrooms spread over a nigh-unimaginable 4,341 square feet. Talk about room to roam! Your family can live, work, play, and rest all at the same time within these walls. As if this home couldn’t best just about anything at a comparable price point in terms of space, style, and technology, to boot it has amenities out the proverbial wazoo. A gated, private entrance, FOUR CAR GARAGE (to revert to chatspeak for a moment: omg), double-sided elevator, home security system, and fully integrated home entertainment system are just some of the luxuries that come packaged with this unit.
The experience starts on the ground floor, which marries wide-open space with perfection of form and function. The ceiling soars two stories high, and glass doors topped with towering, frosted windows allow sunlight to spill in. With vast spaciousness, Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and a huge gas fireplace, grandeur is ingrained upon you from the moment you cross the threshold.
The walkthrough galley kitchen packs the equivalent of a gourmet chef’s domain into a space-saving footprint. Stainless Viking/Wolf/Miele appliances, granite countertops, and breathtaking custom cabinets just scream “luxury.”
Also on the first floor: a living room/office, additional room, bathroom, and the door to the serene, lovely terrace, where you can unwind and relax after a long day or entertain dinner party guests in ample style.
The second floor encompasses a large media/family room, from which you can control the housewide entertainment center.
Climb to the third floor and find two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, along with a second family room. The living space in this home is just phenomenal.
The master suite covers the entire top floor, as is the style at King’s Court. Prepared to be wowed by this opulent, comfort-drenched retreat, which sports an enormous, custom walk-in closet, dressing room, a master bath decked out in tile of marble and onyx, and a private balcony overlooking the city, in addition to a bathroom that’s the last world in dreaminess. A second gas fireplace adorns this level like the gem that it is.
Like a grand lady, this home is both beautiful AND smart! There’s not only the aforementioned security system, but a sprinkler system as well. This “Smart Home” comes equipped with the technology to control video cameras at both entrances.
All this is to say nothing of the location, location, location in which you’d be living. Walk to Rittenhouse Square and all its related entertainment and conveniences, stroll to the Parkway and soak up the culture at local museums, or simply enjoy the ability to access any shopping or dining you could want within a short jaunt.
Three year tax abatement remaining! There’s an open house this Sunday (7/13) from 1 – 4pm, so go visit. If you have $2,295,000 to spend, this is a hell of a deal.
