This well designed condominium in The Aria located in the Avenue of the Arts area of Center City Philadelphia really feels like home. From the gracious entry area, with a butler's pantry and a half bathroom, to the formal dining room leading into the lovely and well sized living area with lots of windows and built in book shelves, to the open kitchen with a window and stainless appliances and granite counters with a breakfast bar opening onto the most comfortable den (with a wall it could be an additional bedroom) and then two ensuite bedrooms on either end affording total privacy for the residents and or overnight guests. The Aria is a 24 hour door person building with a fitness room and yoga studio, a guest suite available for very reasonable overnight rates, a community room with a dining room and kitchen, a pet spa and dog run which is great for inclement weather. This home includes a storage locker as well. There are three parking garages within a block of this ideally situated building steps away from the Academy of Music, the Kimmel Center, two blocks from Rittenhouse Square and near so many shops and restaurants. The Aria is expecting to have a special assessment, the amount of which is unknown. Seller has adjusted his price to compensate for this.
