Just Sold: 309 N 3rd St Unit #B, Philadelphia, PA 19106
Just Sold: $529,500
| This handsome brick building is part of N. 3rd St Factory Row–one of many shoe factories that were part of Philadelphia’s industrial roots at the turn of the 19th century. It followed the great condo conversions at the beginning of the 21st century, conversions that developed the unique character of Old City. In 2014, this unit was transformed from a standard, rather drab, existence into a stunning residence. Ebony floors provide a dramatic entrance and contrast to the towering ceilings outfitted with recessed lights that provide depth and space. A spacious galley style kitchen delights with euro-style white enamel cabinetry, chef grade stainless steel appliances, retro-silver dotted backsplash all accented with speckled quartz counters. A dedicated dining room with a unique Jason jar chandelier greets the entrance; a large utility/storage closet and full bath lead the way to the large bedroom (or den) accented with a sleek, cut-out window. Looking for some outdoor space? The small decked balcony is just that and sits in front of the former industrial elevator shaft – perfect storage for garden, seasonal and sports items. The front of the building houses an enormous family room, and lovely elongated windows that were part of the original façade provide lots of natural light to flow through. A wide staircase adorned with a custom metal banister leads to the second floor. Again, a wide guest bedroom with large windows and double closets spans the front section. The connecting artery holds an office and large laundry area. The Master Suite commands attention at every turn: a magnificent bath has been designed with shades of white—white marble tiling surrounds the slipper soaking tub and euro-style doorless shower, multi-hued tiles establish the floor, a separate commode closet, double-sink vanity with expresso cabinets all lead to the crowning glory—a magnificent contemporary crystal chandelier. Two walk in closets on either side of the bedroom entry way lead to the super-sized master bedroom which boasts its own decked balcony – an urban oasis in within the city landscape. Old City is generous with cultural experiences, a hub for public transportation with easy access to major roads into and out of the city, boasts several celebrity chef restaurants, and offers lots of shopping and casual dining opportunities. |
