Property Description

A grand modern residence commanding the prominent corner of 17th and North Streets, this Cope Linder–designed townhome is a standout example of contemporary urban living. With North, South, and West exposures, the home is filled with natural light throughout the day, while its corner orientation gives it a distinguished presence within the Art Museum/Fairmount neighborhood.

A marble entry hall sets the tone upon arrival, offering a sense of scale and refinement. This level includes elevator access to the upper floors, a coat closet, basement access, and direct entry from the fully covered two-car garage with built-in central vacuum. To the right of the foyer, a versatile den serves beautifully as a fourth bedroom, in-law suite, guest quarters, or home office, complete with a full bath featuring a glass vanity and a glass-enclosed tub/shower combination.

The second level opens to an expansive living and dining room spanning the 26-foot width of the home. A gas fireplace anchors the living area, while oversized windows capture abundant light from the home's corner exposures. A south-facing deck extends from the living room, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection for everyday living and entertaining.

The chef's kitchen is both warm and functional, featuring abundant cabinetry, a large island, bay window overlooking North Street, Viking six-burner range with double ovens, Viking refrigerator, wet bar, and a breakfast area with wine and beverage refrigeration. A powder room with tasteful wallpaper sits between the kitchen and stair hall.

The third floor hosts three well-proportioned bedrooms and a hall bath. The front-facing bedroom features a Juliette balcony and spacious closet, while the second bedroom enjoys excellent light and its own well-sized closet. A marble hall bath with double sinks, marble vanity, and tub-shower combination serves the floor, along with a conveniently located laundry station near the primary suite.

The primary suite is a calm retreat with a walk-in closet and a spa-like bath featuring double sinks, marble vanity, a glass-enclosed quartz shower, and a dedicated bathroom closet — a refined European detail rarely found in city homes.

At the top of the home, a pilot house with full wet bar opens directly to a roof deck with panoramic views across Fairmount and the Center City skyline — an ideal setting for sunset gatherings and city entertaining.

The finished, carpeted lower level provides flexible space for a family room, gym, playroom, or media lounge. Additional highlights include elevator access to all levels, multiple outdoor spaces, abundant storage, and secure two-car garage parking.

Just steps from Fairmount Avenue's dining scene, the Philadelphia Art Museum, the Barnes Foundation, the new Calder Gardens, and the cultural institutions of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, this exceptional residence offers a rare blend of architectural distinction, modern comfort, and urban convenience.
