Property Description
Historic double-wide Carriage House with GARAGE Parking, nestled on one of the Art Museum area’s most coveted tree-lined blocks. Architect restoration in the 1980s has created a unique loft-like live/work space. Enter the first floor artist's residence through a private entrance on Brandywine Street, you will be welcomed by a reception area leading into a working artists’ studio space with a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom.
One floor up from the street, you'll find the sunny main living space which boasts a soaring double-height atrium and almost 2,000 square feet of uninterrupted space. The contemporary open plan living area is ideal for hosting guests and showcasing an extensive art collection, anchored by a wood burning fireplace flanked by custom built-ins and a suite of four south-facing windows spanning the spectacular 30’+ wide space. Custom cabinetry in the kitchen provides generous storage space and wraps around an oversized island with granite tile counter tops, illuminated by industrial pendant lights. The adjacent dining room is part of the tiled atrium and provides extra space for entertaining and a wall of closets with additional storage. Completing the second floor is the primary bedroom, which overlooks quiet Brandywine St and features an ensuite bath with a luxurious soaking tub, walk-in closet, and an additional hallway bathroom with a stall shower.
Ascend the stairs along an exposed brick wall to the third floor where a sun-washed loft space provides additional space for a sitting room or study. Three large south-facing windows overlook the roof deck with sweeping city views. Across the hall is a spacious second bedroom with ample closet space, treetop views and an ensuite bath.
Tucked away in one of the city's most convenient neighborhoods, this exceptional property is just steps from Fairmount Park, The Barnes Foundation, Whole Foods and a variety of great restaurants including Tela’s Market & Kitchen, Umai Umai, and Bar Hygge. This is the perfect home for those seeking a unique blend of history, character, and modern amenities.
