Located right across from Liberty Lands in the heart of Northern Liberties, this spacious 20 foot wide home was custom designed and built by the current owners with the help of the architect Harman Deutsch. The home is designed to passive house standards with an air-tight envelope, highly insulated walls and roof, and an Energy Recovery Ventilation system for lower energy bills and improved air quality. This home encompasses 2640 sq ft over 3 levels plus 800 sq ft of finished space below ground, a finished 800 sq ft rooftop terrace, and a large 1200 sq ft garden with two parking spots. Entering the front door, you are welcomed into a modern dining area and a fantastic open kitchen with lots of cabinetry/storage. Past the open tread and metal railing staircase, you find an oversized light filled living room. Large sliding doors lead out to the garden featuring mature greenery and native perennials. The garden was designed by a Philadelphia landscape company utilizing native plants to support local wildlife. Past the outdoor living area are two gated parking spaces. Upstairs, the 2nd level features 2 oversized bedrooms with large sunny windows and sizable closets. You'll also find a full hall bath and a large laundry room. The 3rd level features an expansive primary bedroom featuring west facing windows with views of the garden and park, and a wall of closets for plenty of storage. The primary bathroom features double vanities, rain head walk-in shower, and a separate soaking tub. On this level are 2 more bedrooms that also make great offices or work-out rooms. The basement has been finished to make a movie/den room with a projector mount and a 7.1 surround sound system , a powder room and separate storage area. Features throughout the home include 10'+ ceiling height, concrete floors on the main level and engineered maple flooring on upper levels. The bathrooms have been finished with Portuguese cement board walls and porcelain tile flooring. Continuing up to the roofdeck level, you will find two connected outdoor living spaces both with panoramic views of the Philadelphia skyline. This home is a unique urban oasis with its spacious living, excellent noise insulation thanks to highly insulated walls and triple-pane windows, an isolated rooftop terrace to relax and entertain, and a secluded garden on the park. You are just steps from the community friendly Liberty Lands park and the neighborhood favorite One Shot Coffee, not to mention the convenience of grocery, shopping, and nearby restaurants.
