** DRAMATIC PRICE IMPROVEMENT ** This unit is a rare find in Philadelphia, a loft in the truest sense—open, expansive, 2,000 square feet with warm wood flooring over solid concrete, exposed brick, light and air that move easily through the space. Ceilings stretch nearly 12 feet, windows run wall to wall. Bring in all your beautiful things, or keep it sparse and let the light do most of the work. Flexible partitions let you carve out space when you need them, and disappear when you don’t. The rest of the apartment follows that rhythm. Big enough to adapt. Minimal enough to stay calm.

The kitchen is the natural center of activity, Italian-crafted and designed to draw people in. Poliform Varenna cabinetry keeps the lines clean, quartz counters wrap an island that doubles as a bar-height table, and built-ins stay quietly out of sight. It opens into the dining area—good for dinners that run late with friends, or quiet nights with just a bottle open and music low.

The primary bedroom suite is larger than many full apartments, with a dressing area and custom wardrobes to keep everything in place. The owners’ bath is generous, appointed with materials that are both contemporary and timeless. An oversized shower, a soaking tub, a floating vanity—details more considered than flashy. An artist-made textile screen here, sliding moiré doors there, touches that add texture without demanding explanation.

Outside, it’s Philadelphia at its most livable. You can walk to galleries, music venues, Chinatown noodles, coffee, beer halls, climbing gyms, the Rail Park. Condo fees are refreshingly low for a space of this scale, a rare bonus in a building like this. SEPTA’s close if you need to move farther. But most of the time, you probably won’t.
