Property Description
Prime location and posh amenities in corner condo on Pennsylvania Ave.! This mid-century modern 2
BRs/2 bath condo perched on the 14 th floor and poised on edge of city's heartbeat showcases both south
and east stunning views of city and beyond. Condo is perfectly positioned for city living and walkable to
fine dining, casual eateries, and grocery stores, as well as Brandywine Park and Zoo, Wilmington YMCA,
and Trolley Square where one can stroll sidewalks and admire striking architecture and mature
trees. Condo features new appliances/cabinet doors/hardware/backsplash in kitchen, updated baths,
and new lighting/fresh paint throughout. Step inside to welcoming foyer of side table for mail/keys and
double 6-panel doors that open to reveal in-unit ventless W & D/storage. Immediately relish dramatic
parquet floors, lofty ceilings, neutral paint palette and elegant crown molding and then turn the corner
to open, sun-infused, sweeping space and this almost 1,200 sq. ft. home unfolds with wall of windows
across the room and breathtaking views beyond. To left is carved-out alcove, ideal for desk/hutch along
with chair that can be easily added to conversation area just past. Room opens to full-fledge living space
with array of couches, chairs, and coffee table. Area rug adds another layer of neutral color and creates
subtle boundary, while entire interior wall serves as framework for artwork that brings personality to
this great room. From front room through condo there are magnificent views through windows/glass
sliders to balcony with city as the backdrop. Adjacent, yet seamless to great room is DR, where there are
also uninterrupted views out the windows, perfect setting for breakfast through to after-dinner
beverages. Circular table and lighting add softness and intimacy to room, while wall of built-in bookcases
ground space and interject a certain measure of individuality. Although distinct separate spaces, rooms
are connected and have easy flow between them. Off DR is galley kitchen that is bright, clean-lined, and
contemporary. White cabinets/bar hardware (several cabinets were cleverly upgraded to easy-slide
drawers) blend with light Corian countertops, while white subway tile backsplash compliments SS
appliances. Hallway, that leads back to sequestered BRs/baths, juts off great room and is comprised of
DD closet that functions as sizable pantry and 2 nd DD closet that operates as larger-items storage. This
condo is storage savvy! Hall bath features new contemporary vanity with efficient storage drawers and
fusion of ceramic beige tile floor and tub/shower, matte black hardware, and natural paint. Secondary
BR/office is spacious and sunlit with substantial closet and 4 windows that span room end-to-end and
offer diverse yet equally beautiful city views. Primary BR also capitalizes on its position in floorplan and
corner location with open concept, walk-in closet and retreat area for pair of chairs. 4 windows are
echoed from secondary BR and provide incredible natural light. Imagine waking up and enjoying infusion
of morning sun and unmatched views from your bed! Primary bath matches luxury of BR with all tile tan
shower, brushed gold/black lighting, modern vanity, and window with deep ledge. Step through glass
sliders from main space and you've stepped into another world! Relax on your own spacious balcony
with privacy from neighbors and room for dining set and potted plants. Appreciate spectacular views of
Wilmington, and from dawn to dusk, enjoy morning coffee, afternoon reading and evening sunsets.
Whether vantage point is from outdoor balcony or indoor space, look out over historic buildings, church
steeples, homes' rooftops, fountain, lush treetops and in the distance DE memorial bridge.
Amenities extend to secured building access, valet 1-car parking, lovely sitting area, meeting room and
community “secret garden.” Close to I-95/Wilm. train station & 25 mins. to Phil. Airport. Chic City Living!
