Come see this beautifully designed unit in a classic mid-century building right on Rittenhouse Square. Recently renovated and meticulously maintained, this is one of the most tastefully finished apartments in the Dorchester that you will ever see. The home features beautiful, wide-plank oak flooring that runs throughout. The floor plan centers around a very attractive and highly functional kitchen with recessed panel cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large porcelain farmhouse sink, and a peninsula countertop with room for 3 stools. The kitchen is open to the spacious living area, which is highlighted by banks of windows on two sides that welcome in soft, natural, northern light. There is a comfortable amount of space for a lounging area, perfect for media viewing. Adjacent to the living area is a dining space for intimate dinners for 4. Off the living area is a full light door to the wide balcony with dramatic Center City views, especially after sunset. Opposite the living area is a hallway that connects a spacious second bedroom to a stylishly finished hall and guest bath. At the end of the hall is the large primary suite with plenty of room for a king bed, a seating area, and dresser space. This bedroom features an ensuite bathroom with a frameless glass shower. The bathroom is adjacent to a walk-in closet. The Dorchester is known for its beautifully appointed lobby, well-established management and staff, rooftop pool, gym, and onsite parking available for a monthly fee. Even more so, it is recognized for its superior location at the southwest corner of Rittenhouse Square, with the fullest and finest urban amenities that Philadelphia has to offer just steps away. This is one that you don't want to miss.
