Elevate your lifestyle with this exquisite 2-story, 2,400+ SF, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom condominium located in America’s most historic square mile! Indulge in luxury living in Unit 603, situated on the top floors, where every detail has been meticulously crafted to provide unparalleled comfort and style. Perched above historic Welcome Park, this residence offers breathtaking views of the iconic Ben Franklin Bridge and the U.S. Customs House, setting the scene for a truly remarkable living experience. With only four other units sharing this floor, privacy and exclusivity are paramount. Step into the grand foyer featuring two sizable coat closets, the 3rd bedroom, a convenient half bath, and a large storage/utility room setting the tone for the incredible spaciousness and functionality found throughout this sophisticated home. The contemporary, open-concept living space boasts bamboo hardwood floors, incredible recessed lighting, and a cozy gas fireplace with a wood surround, complemented by hand-painted Venetian wallpaper adding a touch of elegance to the living area. Designed to inspire culinary creativity, the chef’s dream kitchen is equipped with a Sub-Zero refrigerator with chiller and freezer drawers and unparalleled storage solutions, including marine-grade wood interiors making clean up effortless. The adjacent private balcony, to be updated with new terrace doors in 2024, offers a serene garden retreat to savor morning coffee or an evening glass of wine throughout the summer months. Ascend to the second level where two generously sized en suite bedrooms await, each graced with oversized windows and extraordinary closet space featuring custom built-ins. The elegantly appointed primary bedroom suite is a sun-soaked sanctuary boasting incredible storage with one large walk-in closet and five additional clothing and linen closets, ensuring more-than-ample space for all needs. Controlled blackout shades provide for a peaceful repose. Luxury abounds in the primary bathroom, offering a fully tiled shower, updated in 2023 with a natural stone mosaic floor, and a marble countertop double vanity with cabinet and under-sink storage. The 2nd en suite bedroom is bright and spacious and can be easily configured as an office or library. This room includes a closet housing the stackable washer and dryer. The bathroom is a sublime retreat, featuring a tub/shower combination with beautiful ceramic tile floors and a neutral color palate. Additional upgrades include hardwood floors added to the second level in 2014 and a new HVAC system installed in 2022. New carpeting on the stairs was installed in 2024. Conveniences abound with an assigned underground parking space (located close to building elevator) and a climate-controlled storage unit in the lower level, all within reach of the building’s doorman service and fobbed access security system.
