Light, Bright and Airy best describes this lovely 2nd floor unit at Churchview Commons, a landmark building on quaint, cobblestoned Church St in the heart of Old City. An attractive secured building lobby welcomes residents and guests. The unit opens with an entry hallway endowed with a large coat closet and opens onto an expansive living room crowned with high ceilings, accented with a lovely fireplace, and bordered with south facing windows and a glass sliding door that leads out onto a large private balcony. Light bamboo flooring flows through the main living spaces and carpets pad both bedrooms. Windows line the entire south wall allowing lots of natural light to the bedrooms, and each bedroom features a large closet for ample storage. One bedroom is ensuite, while the second bath is conveniently located in the center hallway running leading through the unit. A sizable 'retro' kitchen features white cabinets with pewter trim, tiled flooring and white appliances and sits to the side but is open to the main living area. The elevator building boasts a common area roof deck which is perfectly situated for gorgeous views of the Ben Franklin Bridge, holiday fireworks and the city skyline. The HVAC System and water heater were installed in 2014 and both come with multiple year warranties. New Fios lines are being installed nearby and the building will soon be wired for that service. Old City is a cultural mecca hosting First Friday, The Philadelphia Fringe Festival, The Philadelphia Film Festival, Penn's Landing Summer Festivals, the Landmark Movie Theaters, award winning Arden Theater, the Historic District not to mention the many celebrity chef restaurants, casual cafes and unique fashion boutiques. It is a transportation hub for Septa lines and is easily accessible to roads leading into and out of city. Lots of light, a private balcony, a great location make this an amazing residence for anyone looking to enjoy the urban lifestyle Philly has to offer!
