The main living level offers an inviting open-concept layout with generous ceiling heights, custom built-in shelving, and a seamless flow between living and dining spaces. Just a few steps above, the kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant storage, and a convenient counter overlooking the living area. The 2nd and 3rd floors have similar layouts with a bedroom, full bathroom and an additional small bedroom. The top floor retains the charm and character of the home's historic roots, featuring exposed wide-plank flooring and architectural details that evoke the building's 19th-century origins. This attic floor would great as an office or playroom space. One of the property's most special features is its private rear garden. Framed by mature landscaping, flowering hydrangeas, brick walls, and a canopy of trees, the courtyard creates a quiet retreat rarely found in Center City. Whether enjoying morning coffee, gardening, or entertaining guests, the outdoor space feels worlds away from the city while remaining just steps from everything Society Hill has to offer.
