You have never seen a property like this before! Stunning four-bedroom home with historic craftsmanship and charm, yet with all the comfort and convenience of like-new construction. The extensive remodel incorporates unique salvaged materials, each with a story to tell. Stepping through the front door, immediately notice the rare Brazilian walnut mixed-width hardwood floors, meticulous wainscotting, beautiful brick-finish accent wall, custom windows, recessed lighting, and crown molding. The hand-built open tread stairs feature wood reclaimed from Brewerytown's old milk depot, and the Victorian-era built-in was reconstructed to include a full-length coat closet. The kitchen island is the centerpiece, crafted from original timber from the home, hand-inlaid brass, sitting upon antique wine barrels. Kitchen features five-burner gas range, hand-hewn shelving with vintage railroad spike hardware, shaker cabinets with soft-close, and reclaimed wood sills. Backsplash tile extends to ceiling. Upstairs, note the high ceilings, smooth finish drywall, recessed lights on dimmers, and the stunning hardwood carrying through every bedroom. The primary suite features electric fireplace, 100-yr old genuine barn door, roman blinds, south-facing bay window, and generous walk-in closet. The en suite bathroom is everything you would expect in a home with this degree of artistry and taste, with skylight, meticulous slate-tiled shower stall with frameless glass, turn-of-the-century clawfoot tub with waterfall and hand shower faucet. Completely finished basement with tile floor and many of the same design touches as upstairs; most notably, a custom wet-bar and full room-length bench seating make this an excellent room to entertain. Full laundry room downstairs, as is the fourth bedroom and third full bathroom, with a distinct style within the motifs of this cohesive home. Note the tankless water heater, newer HVAC, and other updated systems of the home. The sewer lateral was recently replaced under the street. Located just a few short blocks to East Fairmount, Smith playground, the Art Museum complex, boathouse row, and the renowned Schuylkill River Trail. Walking distance to groceries, coffee and bagel shops, neighborhood gastropubs and taprooms. Come see this exceptional one-of-a-kind home, and see how it proves the adage, There is no craftsmanship without art!
