Welcome to 2049 Appletree Street. As you approach this lovely home,
take in the quiet tree lined street. You are so very close to the business
and cultural center of Philadelphia, yet this south facing home enjoys
tranquility. So rarely can you find such an idyllic living situation in any
major city in the world. You are a short walk to the largest office
towers and business center of the city. Food shopping is easy with both
Giant and Trader Joe’s just a few minutes away. Additionally, you can
walk to the newly opened Calder Museum, the world-famous Barnes
Foundation Art Museum, the Philadelphia Museum of Art in addition to
other museums that are just a few minutes away along the beautiful
parkway.
Entering this beautiful home, you encounter a vestibule with tile floors
and raised paneling walls to a custom beveled glass inner door.
The formal living room has 11’ ceilings with beautiful plaster of Paris
crown molding. There is an imported antique marble fireplace with
gas logs that are easy to use. There is a mirrored mantel that adds to the
elegant setting. Oak floors enhance the living and dining rooms.
There is an adjacent formal dining room featuring two windows for
plenty of natural air and light. A compact kitchen featuring ample
cherry wood cabinets and granite countertops along with all modern
appliances are just behind the dining room. Off of the kitchen is a small
outdoor area which is perfect for grilling. This home also has access to
a secure rear alley which provides additional access to this home.
Just as you arrive on the second floor, one has access to a large power
room with marble floors and granite top vanity. The second floor also
features an expansive open space, serving as an informal living room,
office, den and library. There is a wet bar for entertaining. It is lined
with custom made bookshelves to hold not only books but all kinds of
personal belongings perhaps from your travels. In addition, the second
floor features an exposed brick wall which helps create a beautiful
environment. On the third floor you will find a large bedroom and a
custom bathroom featuring an oversized tub/shower combination,
granite top vanity, double sinks, and storage. From there take a few
small steps up to an expansive roof deck from where you can enjoy a
beautiful view of the city skyline while enjoying a drink and perhaps
dinner. Or just sit out and read and take a nap. This is a lovely feature
of this home. On the lower level of this home, you will find a large bedroom with full
bath and closet space. Additionally, there is ample storage and utility
room with full sized washer and dryer on this level. This home is
located in the Greenfield School catchment.
