2001 Waverly St, Philadelphia, PA 19146

Description

A singular residence bordering Rittenhouse and Fitler Square, 2001 Waverly Street offers a stunning combination of contemporary design, scale and comfort. Commanding the corner of 20th Street with a dramatic brick facade, this home pairs modern lines with rich natural wood, enormous windows, gas lanterns and three integrated outdoor spaces. The result is a transitional city house featuring 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, 2 half baths and nearly 6,000 square feet of style.

Inside, the light-filled main level brings the kitchen, dining and living rooms together and creates a striking sense of openness. Wide-plank floors provide warmth while towering ceilings, custom millwork and window treatments add a refinement rarely found in newer construction. The kitchen is both elegant and highly functional, anchored by a La Cornue stove and impressive center island with radiant underlighting. The marble fireplace surrounded by walls of glass creates a moody interplay between the house and its surrounding streetscape. His/her home offices with custom millwork and three en-suite guest rooms create privacy and utility.

Multiple balconies carry the living spaces outdoors. The rooftop deck provides a large private retreat above the city and features motorized awnings, another new kitchen and grill area. The elevator services all floors and the garage can accommodate two cars. The current owners spared no expense throughout a major renovation completed in 2023. The roof and all systems were replaced. New AC units were installed in 2026. This is a luxurious, turn-key escape in the heart of Philadelphia. Contact Garrett Snider of the Lavinia Smerconish Team for showings and more information.
