From the moment you pull into your driveway at 824 N Newkirk, you?ll instantly feel at ease. You?re home. Equal parts design and function, this home has been elegantly and thoughtfully updated throughout, anticipating your every need for peaceful comfort and enjoyment. Open the front door and hang up your coat?how rare to have a coat closet in the entryway! Continue into the light-filled, open living space and take it all in: in front of you, the dining room with original oak flooring and Mid-Century Modern Nelson-style pendant lamp. To the right is the kitchen, a showstopper. Renovated in 2019, it features Bosch and GE Signature appliances, Heath Ceramics tile backsplash, quartz countertops, and a full pantry with Elfa shelving. The east-facing windows provide plenty of morning sun and the Hunter Douglas blinds allow you to adjust for the perfect light, no matter what the mood or the time of day. And now down to the inviting living room with its oversized windows, woodburning fireplace, and Haiku smart fan. This room overlooks the beautifully-designed backyard patio and lush perennial garden, recently updated with privacy fencing, eco-friendly permeable pavers, and stone-walled raised beds with incorporated lighting. Back inside, the second floor features two generously sized bedrooms with remote-controlled ceiling fans and ample closets, and a recently renovated hall bath with oversized vanity, Delta fixtures, and dual-flush toilet. The laundry is also on this floor. The third floor primary suite is a light-filled sanctuary featuring generous closet space, Haiku smart fan and wood flooring. Sliding doors lead to your private balcony with new IKEA decking and a coveted city view. And perhaps saving the best for last: the newly renovated luxury bath with Miseno fixtures, dual-flush toilet, and full-tiled shower with enviable nook storage. Back downstairs, the lower level is currently set up as a gym, with additional workshop and storage areas, a glass block wall for natural light and a door that leads directly to your parking spot and outdoor storage closet. Additional upgrades throughout the home include Nest doorbell, security cameras, thermostat, and smoke detectors; Lutron light switches and receptacles; Pella windows; 3-year-old washer, dryer, and water heater. With all the thoughtful comfort this home provides, it?s unlikely you?ll ever want to leave. But if you do venture out, it?s just a short stroll to Philly icons like Boathouse Row, Lemon Hill, and the Art Museum, as well as the Fairmount neighborhood?s lively shopping and dining scene. Schedule your private showing, check out the Matterport tour, and visit one of the two open houses this weekend (Sat & Sun 12:00-1:30)...we welcome your visit!
