For this week’s trinity pick, we’ve opted to leave Society Hill and hit up the neighborhoods west of Broad Street. Our findings? This charming Rittenhouse residence built circa 1750.

The home, which has had a kitchen renovation within the last few years, has been expanded. Fortunately, endearing traces of its origins remain, most noticeably in the random-width hardwood floors, living room fireplace, and wood-burning stove in the top-floor bedroom (oh man, that sounds super cozy right about now).  Built-in bookshelves and a brand new deck are also included.
