Steps away from sprawling Rittenhouse Square Park on a hidden, low traffic, dead-end, cobblestone block, you'll find 2042 Latimer St. This updated 3-story home offers 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a private outdoor space, and lots of unique character. Lush trees shade the picturesque front facade, brightened red accents and lively planters. Inside, the spacious, sunlit living room is framed by inlaid hardwood floors and tall ceilings. A glass block wall illuminates the separate dining area, where tile floors extend into a kitchen featuring shaker cabinetry, granite counters, an exposed brick backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and Cafe Microwave . Up on the carpeted second level, there's a large bedroom boasting great natural light from three tall windows, an exposed brick wall, and a generous closet. The attached full bathroom has a glass-enclosed shower, and a door at the rear opens to a secluded terrace that's the perfect spot to relax with a morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine. The second bedroom on the top floor has hardwoods, more bright windows, and its own full bathroom. Completing the home is a clean, dry basement that has the laundry and extra storage space. Utilities include central a/c, gas hot water, and radiator heat. One of 2042 Latimer St's highlights is surely its sought-after Rittenhouse Square location, earning a near-perfect Walk Score of 98! The city's best restaurants, shopping, and entertainment line the surrounding streets. Plus, there's easy access to public transit, the extensive Schuylkill River Trail, I-76, and The University of Penn. Schedule your tour today!
