Property Description
Calling all lovers of mid-century modern design and lifestyle, this is a rare opportunity to own a stunning, architecturally significant townhome with parking in Bingham Court, a park-like setting in the heart of Society Hill. Designed by I.M. Pei, best known for the Louvre in Paris, among many other iconic designs, this home has been lovingly restored and improved upon for over twenty years by the architect-owners. Located on a generous green courtyard along the quiet pedestrian walkways of Society Hill, this townhome offers the best of both worlds–a private sanctuary nestled gracefully into the heart of urban living. It has been featured in the Wall Street Journal (2022) and NBC News (2024) - and when you arrive, you will understand why. Once inside, you will be struck by the abundance of natural light and lovely views from extra large double windows in every room. High ceilings, custom built-in millwork in the mid-century modern tradition, front and back patios, and wood-burning fireplace, are just a few of the features that make this home so special. The eat-in kitchen features an abundance of custom-made cabinetry with careful attention to every detail. The upper level hosts the generous primary bedroom suite which overlooks the courtyard and includes ensuite bathroom and spacious walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and hallway bathroom complete this floor. A full-sized lower level offers a variety of options for the next owner to add more finished living space if they desire. This home is just steps from countless wonderful restaurants, the Arden and Ritz theaters, unique shops and boutiques, ample public transportation, Headhouse Farmers Market, grocery stores, Washington Square, Three Bears Park, and many of the most beautiful and famous historic sites in all of Philadelphia. You really never have to use a car, though you will have your own convenient parking spot in an adjacent private lot. Offering a rare mix of townhome living along with some of the advantages that attract people to condo living, Bingham Court is a close community of 27 townhomes with a minimal HOA fee for maintaining the communal gardens, general upkeep, and snow removal - so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your idyllic retreat in the city. These homes rarely come on the market, so don't miss the chance to call this special place your own!
