Now for your tour: Enter the Residences of the Lippincott through a tasteful newly upgraded lobby, hosted by a 24-hour concierge/door person(s)....Before we entice you with the wonders of this beautiful residence, it’s important to note that the Lippincott is one of the few original buildings of distinction that line Washington Square. At one point in time, it was the largest publishing house in the world. And Washington Square has been, & still is, one of the most coveted locations in Philadelphia. Now for your tour: Enter the Residences of the Lippincott through a tasteful newly upgraded lobby, hosted by a 24-hour concierge/door person(s). Take the private elevator & arrive directly into the foyer of your home. As you enter the residence, there are a few things you will immediately take note of, they include: the gorgeous wood flooring that runs throughout, the neutral & soothing paint tones & the glorious, bright, open & airy floor plan. If you enjoy natural sunlight, you will love this property! Stroll to your right down a short hallway which opens-up to a kitchen, dining room & living room combination. The kitchen boasts endless quartz countertop space, including a large eat-on section with barstool seating.

The dining room is large & can accommodate multiple guests at your holiday get togethers. The living room is nothing less than magnificent, in part because its original exposed brick walls give it charm and character. It is also home to your gas fireplace which sets the stage for both entertaining and relaxation. From the living room there’s a door that leads you to your full-length back porch with wonderful Eastern views including treetops & your morning sunrises. This is the perfect place to sip your morning coffee & enjoy your evening glass of wine. Just off the living room there is a bonus room which can be used as a library, billiard room, or an expansive office. Until recently it was used as a music room and was home to a grand piano. Like the living room, it also boasts the charm of floor to ceiling brick walls & has a separate door leading out to the porch. As you may have noticed as you walked through all the aforementioned rooms & as you continue on with your tour, every room in the house has high and tray ceilings with tasteful definitions. This home provides you with three bedrooms and three full bathrooms. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite. The master bedroom is nothing less than grand. It has two walk-in closets (plus a wall of additional closet space) & a gorgeous master bathroom with two vanities separated by a large jetted soaking tub & a wonderfully tiled private shower.
