Description

725 S 19th Street is a one-of-a-kind architectural masterpiece, with over 3,600 interior square feet of true modern elegance and 1,300+ square feet of exceptional outdoor spaces, all perfectly situated in the heart of Graduate Hospital. Encompassing the entire northeast corner of 19th & Fitzwater Streets, this stunning home spans an extraordinary 71 feet wide, an extremely rare offering in Philadelphia. Designed with clean lines, expansive glass, and exceptional finishes, this residence blends luxury, function, and striking design in every detail. The entry level welcomes you with a double-door foyer, a large coat closet, full bathroom, a spacious guest bedroom, and direct access to the oversized two-car garage. At the heart of the home is a dramatic steel & wood, open-riser staircase crafted with 4-inch solid oak treads, anchoring the space with sculptural beauty. The second level is a showstopper, surrounded by windows on three sides, floor-to-ceiling glass, and striking glass corner walls that flood the space with natural light. The open living & dining area features a custom-designed three-sided glass fireplace with built-in entertainment center, all overlooking the tree-lined streetscape. The adjacent kitchen is a chef’s dream—with a custom oversized solid stone island with seating, it boasts Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Miele appliances, a Miele built-in coffee station, a three-basin sink, and expanded custom cabinetry that reaches to the ceiling and continues under the island. Two outdoor spaces, front balcony and a side deck, extend the living & entertaining options and offer the perfect place to start or end the day. The next level is home to the impressive Primary Suite, offering a peaceful retreat w/corner gas wall-mounted fireplace framed by a marble mantle, a large walk-in closet plus two additional closets, and a spa-like ensuite bathroom. This luxurious bath includes a freestanding soaking tub, an oversized seamless glass shower w/triple over head showers & massage heads, and a private water closet. The third bedroom with ensuite bath completes this level and includes a custom-built white pine & walnut wall-length closet system w/shelving adding additional storage. This room currently functions as a beautifully outfitted home office. At the top of the home, you'll find a full pilot house with a kitchenette that opens onto an expansive roof deck finished with gorgeous porcelain tile pavers. From this elevated perch, enjoy spectacular panoramic views—sunrise to sunset and full skyline vistas from river to river—making it the ultimate space for entertaining & relaxing. The fully finished lower level continues the home’s thoughtful design & functionality, featuring a built-in wet bar, wine storage, two beverage centers, and flexible space ideal for a home theater, pool table, gym, or family room. This space could also easily accommodate a 4th bedroom. A large laundry room with built-in storage adds to the convenience on this level as well. Located within walking distance to Rittenhouse Square, Avenue of the Arts, Schuylkill River Park & Trails, & easy access to 30th St Station, University City, I-76, and all the amenities of Center City. Please join us this Sunday, June 15th for an Open House from 12 to 2 PM. Extensive Improvement & Upgrade list available upon request.
