An impeccable 2004 rehab of this 1900 office building brilliantly transformed the space into contemporary dwellings with luxurious high end modern finishes. Here, imaginative and stylish loft living mingles open space with private rooms. With a sleek and sophisticated design by acclaimed architect Neil Sandvold of Sandvold Blanca, gorgeous hardwood floors and spacious rooms are stand-out features of this magnificent 4300+ sf home occupying the entire floor and featuring three bedrooms/three baths. A 360 degree view of Center City is yours, with spectacular natural light pouring in through huge windows by day. Elegant window shades provide ample privacy by night. Enter this grand home directly from the elevator – a private entrance to your Center City sanctuary. The entry area offers extensive closet space and an elegant powder room that includes a hidden shower. The entry takes you to an enormous living room/dining room area. Expansive common areas flow seamlessly into each other. A private study is separated by gracious sliding frosted-glass barn doors, providing both light and privacy. This spacious room offers built-in floor to ceiling cupboards, and cabinetry on two sides. The home features a sleek and professional chef’s kitchen, equipped with all stainless steel appliances. Amenities include a dishwasher, an 8-burner Wolfe range with dual oven, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. A partial wall of the eat-in kitchen allows the cook to join in the dining room conversation, while hiding the thoroughly modern kitchen counters and its contents. Moving northward in this block-long apartment takes you to a lovely TV/entertainment room separated from the main common area with a pair of sliding frosted-glass barn doors. Across the hallway is a series of large built-in closets, leading to an expansive wine “cellar” with two full size Sub-Zero wine refrigerators surrounded by racks on both sides. With a capacity of 800 bottles, even the most ardent of oenophiles will find a spot for all their possessions. The luxurious master bedroom suite is essentially an entire wing to itself, and can be closed off for complete privacy. Features include a sitting room, dressing room, fabulous walk-in custom built out closets, and a bath with heated floors, private commode, steam shower, and double vanity. The second and third bedrooms share an en-suite bath with soaking tub, shower, and frosted glass privacy doors. Even the laundry room is spacious, with its own window view. In addition, there is a large storage/utility room nearby. Boasting a prime location, this pet-friendly 10 story building contains 20 units. Rittenhouse Square is just one block away, while right across the street is one of the city’s most acclaimed gourmet shops. The surrounding walkable neighborhoods contain some of the finest theaters, shops, and restaurants in the city. Convenient location provides easy access to 30th Street Station, the Airport, and other forms of transport. From its days as an office building, 1737 Chestnut Street retains such original lobby features as a huge brass door, brass banisters, and a vintage wall-mounted mailbox.
