Jawdropper of the Week: Modern History in Midtown Village for $1.975M

This top-floor condo in a historic 1867 dental products factory is as fresh as the produce at the Reading Terminal Market up the street from it. The custom kitchen skylight is incredible.

When you hear the phrase “penthouse unit,” you know you’re in for a treat – and this unit located on the top floor of Midtown Village’s S.S. White Building is no exception.

This apartment occupies over 3,000 square feet of space and boasts 15-foot ceilings, Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, and our personal favorite, a huge skylight that spans the entire kitchen (seriously, look at that thing!). Speaking of the kitchen, this one features high-end appliances, an island counter with seating for four, a wine fridge and a pantry. Off the kitchen find a cozy office and laundry room.

Two bedrooms are connected by a shared bathroom. The master suite is the third and final bedroom in the residence and features a walk-in closet and a beautiful en-suite bathroom. An attic is located above the master closet.

It’s ideally located for those who love city living. You’re right in the middle of one of the liveliest parts of Center City, with great dining, shopping and entertainment at your doorstep. The famed Reading Terminal Market is just a block and a half away, and if you feel you need to get away — but why would you? — you’re right at the nerve center of the city’s transportation network, with Jefferson Station one block north and City Hall/15th Street three blocks away.

We get it, not everyone has nearly two million dollars to spend on a penthouse. But if you do, now’s your chance to own a fabulous property in a historic building in the heart of the city. Either way, enjoy this listing – because we think it’s pretty awesome.
