1003-05 S 46TH ST #6 Philadelphia, PA 19143

Quintessential West Philly charm meets the conveniences of condo living in this ideally located building in the Penn Alexander catchment. Homes in this boutique six-unit building don't come up for sale often, and this top-floor unit is sure to delight with coffered ceilings, retro-cool tile, vintage light fixtures, refinished original oak floors and a semi-private balcony overlooking the pretty tree-lined block. A sunny living room welcomes you in with oversized windows on two walls, exposed ceiling beams and those gorgeous floors with inlaid border that continue throughout. Continue down the hallway--where the signatures of the workers from the c. 1914 conversion have been preserved in the plaster!--to access both bedrooms, which rival each other in size and have an original mirrored closet and five-panel wood door. The bathroom is a vintage-lover's dream, featuring hardwood floors, clawfoot tub, sea shell tile half wall surround, pedestal sink and medicine cabinet with cute seashell handle. There's a linen closet just outside the bathroom, a rarity in the neighborhood and even more valuable in a condo. At the rear is the dining room with coffered ceiling, decorative fireplace, exposed brick wall, amazing art deco light fixture and passthrough into the kitchen, which wows with black and white checkered floors, bright yellow cabinets, matte black countertops and crisp white appliances, including an original Wincroft range. There's an additional exit out the back fire escape, which offers a convenient space for an herb garden. Each unit comes with an additional storage space in the basement plus access to shared laundry facilities. The building is just a block off Baltimore Ave, with neighborhood faves like Vientiane Cafe, Milk & Honey, Studio 34 Yoga, Dottie's Donuts, Loco Pez and of course Clark Park all right around the corner.
