Welcome to 246 North 3rd Street, Unit 2D, in the loft building, The Commons at New Street. This beautiful, sunlit, two-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car parking condo is located in the quietest section of Old City, just north of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. Recently updated and meticulously maintained, this unit boasts a spacious 1400 sq ft floor plan with wood floors and 12-foot ceilings supported by original (painted) concrete columns, creating an open and attractive living space. Enter through the canopied main entrance into a secure and welcoming lobby with mailboxes and a package area. Take the elevator or stairs to the 2nd floor of this medium-sized, well-run, former commercial building. Upon entering the unit you will be welcomed by an open, sunken, living area backed by south-facing windows. Off the living area is a dining area on one side and a beautifully designed kitchen on the other. Featuring white Shaker-style cabinetry, quartz counters, subway tiles, stainless steel appliances, and a two-stool counter for casual meals, it is perfect for any home chef. The primary bedroom is off the living space, and in classic loft style, the walls do not extend all the way to the ceiling but could if desired. Adjacent to it is the primary bathroom. The 2nd bedroom, with full-height walls, is on the opposite side of the living area creating privacy, and it is adjacent to a hall bath. This unit also includes two parking spaces in a secure lot just a half block down New Street from the building. As parking becomes more and more challenging each year in Center City, these two spots add valuable equity to this home. The association allows for one of the parking spaces to be rented out for additional income towards your mortgage. Building amenities include a lobby, elevator, mail room, and bike room for your convenience. Located in one of Philadelphia's most sought-after neighborhoods, this condo offers easy access to some of the city's best restaurants, shops, and museums. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own this gem that has been owned by the same owner for nearly 23 years. Schedule your showing today!
