Property Description
This stunning Fitler Square mansion, once the Sunderland Residence, was masterfully designed by renowned architect Harry Sternfeld, known for his work on The Architect’s Building (now the Kimpton Hotel Palomar) and other highly regarded projects such as the US Courthouse and Post Office at 9th & Market Streets. The Art Deco facade is a standout feature,with machine age milled aluminum stair fittings and lighting adding a unique touch leading to an almost magical interior filled with ethereal light and spaces with great proportions. The Moorish arched entry hall is just the beginning of a storybook journey, with lushly layered wood paneling and a 16th century Milanese stone fire surround in the library. The front parlor is museum-like., The Great room on the second floor spans the entire width of the home, featuring impressive Dynalab steel cabinetry in the kitchen, which opens to the combination living and dining area. The main bedroom on the third floor boasts an en suite terrazzo-floored period bath, while laundry and generously sized bedroom with en suite bath complete the floor. The fourth floor has another large bedroom, tile bath and an expansive den that opens to the south-facing roof deck. The brick paved lush rear patio on the ground level and separate one bedroom, one bath guest/au pair apartment in the rear of the 1st floor and garden level offer additional space and flexibility. The separate entrance to the guest/au pair apartment could also be used for a professional office, making this an excellent work-from-home location. The basement offers additional storage, a gym, and mechanicals. Close to 30th Street Amtrak, 676, 76, and PHL Airport, as well as all the shopping, dining, arts, and culture that make Philadelphia a world-class attraction, this Fitler Square mansion is the epitome of timeless beauty and elegance.
