Description
Welcome home! Here, in the heart of Center City, amidst the bustling nuances of modern city life, sits The Lennox, a prewar building built during the heady days of 1920~s, designed by New York architects Clinton and Russel. Styles were different then and the Lenox has maintained the specific aesthetic and charm of those times. The elegant reception area, a richly hued wood enclave holding a podium and two elevators, has 24 hour coverage. The hallways are dressed in period wallpaper, warm and inviting, a salute to their era. In a world of stark contemporary style, sterile stainless steel and the infinite open floor plan, it is refreshing to find a space with unique character, a large footprint and distinct rooms. This gorgeous unit offers a marriage of old and new to maintain the best of both worlds. A brand new kitchen features the popular white cabinetry, granite counters and new appliances (yes, that~s GAS cooking!) The walls are cloaked in a stunning white, showing off the architectural details, high ceilings, gorgeous blackframed windows and original wood flooring throughout. A handsome fireplace with an ornate mantle anchors the expansive living/dining area. Each bedroom enjoys plenty of natural light though oversized windows; large closets provide ample storage; and a private bath finishes the ~suite~. A charming hallway runs the length of the unit announcing rooms along the way, offering wall space for art and collectibles. Center City, the Gayborhood, Washington Sq West all meet here. Surrounded by restaurants and cafes, the cultural mecca of Walnut and BroadsStreets, easy access to public transportation with a Walk Score of 98, Rider Score of 100 and Bike Score of 88, this is an ideal location for enjoying an urban lifestyle.
