Part of the coveted Saint James Court community, this impeccably maintained and lovingly cared-for two-bedroom, two-bath residence offers 1566 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Ideally situated along the western edge of the courtyard on Randolph Street—a rare Belgian block street with no through traffic—this home provides a remarkably quiet urban retreat in the heart of Society Hill. Enter into a welcoming vestibule, an ideal landing spot for coats, shoes, and everyday essentials before entering the home. Ascend to the main level, which is drenched in western sunlight by the community's distinctive two-story mullioned windows, an enticing architectural detail, to find an open-concept floor plan designed for both comfortable daily living and effortless entertaining. A wood-burning fireplace adds warmth, charm, and ambiance throughout the seasons. The striking natural light and soaring ceilings illuminate the main floor. The thoughtfully designed kitchen offers timeless quality with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking range, Asko dishwasher, double sink, abundant cabinetry, and a granite counter with a center peninsula. This counter space offers plenty of room for casual dining and seamlessly connects the kitchen to the living space—perfect for conversation and entertaining. Also on this level is a spacious sized bedroom featuring two large walk-in closets and plantation shutters. A full bathroom with a stall shower, plenty of lighting, and ample counter space completes the level. The upper level is devoted to the private primary suite, complete with a spacious sitting area and office nook and sliding doors provide access to a secluded deck overlooking the beautifully landscaped courtyard—an ideal place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. The modern ensuite bathroom boasts a skylight reminiscent of an outdoor shower. Association improvements over the last eight years include replacement of flat and sloped roofs, front & rear gutters installed, along with new eaves. All windows were replaced with the exception of the 99 panel pane windows. New exterior front doors and thresholds were installed, and sliding doors were replaced with new double pane Pella slider doors. Masonary work was completed on the stoop, iron deck railings were inspected, painted and the exterior deck wall was painted. Home owner improvements also include a new Carrier furnace installed in 2022, along with replacement of the AC condenser and water heater. Annual fireplace inspections were conducted, a new chimney cap was installed, along with new laundry hoses and a main water shut off. Beyond the home, enjoy the unparalleled lifestyle Saint James Court offers, namely access to the beautifully manicured courtyard. One of Society Hill's most treasured enclaves, this residence is just steps from Washington Square, Independence National Historical Park, and the charm of Historic Philadelphia. It is near everything you look for in city living, with grocery stores and farmers markets only blocks away, award-winning restaurants, entertainment and charming streets filled with history.
