Property Description
The Perfect condominium (1,531 square feet) for the sophisticated person who wants to entertain friends in style in Center City: a 45' x 24' main room (living room and dining room) with 14 huge "floor to ceiling" windows (10 of them facing right onto the Delaware River and Penn's Landing). Imagine the views from this wall of windows on the 25th floor! This "main room" of totally open area, includes an oversized living room and a dining area only separated by a grand piano. The kitchen, recessed, but totally open, faces the dining area and features a breakfast bar. Countertops and breakfast bar are Corian. The large sink is Corian too, built-in seamlessly in the countertop. There are two more similar windows in the master bedroom suite facing the river. This double unit was created by joining adjacent One-Bedroom units and completely removing the wall in between. Additionally, completely renovated both bathrooms and the kitchen. Newer (2007) Bruce wooden floor throughout (with the exception of both full baths), at a diagonal pattern. The unit can remain as is or easily recreate the second bedroom at a minimum cost. Magnificent view through the 10 floor-to-ceiling windows directly overlooking the Delaware River. No other Two Bedroom unit in the Towers offers this many windows directly on the Delaware River. No other building in Center City offers comparable views. Our double unit has unobstructed views of the Delaware River (fireworks, Penn's Landing, Marina, Moshulu, Olympia, Seaport Museum, marina, etc.). The kitchen is facing the Dining Area and its three windows, onto the Delaware River. It is flooded with natural light and wonderful views. We have one of the best layouts in the Towers: an impressive Great Room for entertaining, an open kitchen and a private master suite while retaining the possibility of re-creating a second bedroom in a better location than originally. Wonderful views of the fireworks on the Delaware! We have hosted parties for our suburban friends for the fireworks every Fourth of July weekend and New Year's Eve. Best location in Center City after Rittenhouse Square, but we have the advantage of our wonderful water views and historical nature of our neighborhood: Society Hill, Penn's Landing and Independence Mall. Walking distance to most theaters, restaurants, museums and hospitals. Everything is happening in Center City, the Pope is coming this year and the Democratic Convention will come next year!
