2128 LOCUST ST, Philadelphia PA 19103
Historic and grand-looking more like an Upper East Side townhouse than a traditional Philadelphia home--best describe this Beaux Arts-style residence designed in 1900 by Kennedy & Kelsey for notable Philadelphian Jay Cooke III. Later the Italian Consulate, then a private residence, this home in the heart of Rittenhouse Square features stunning craftsmanship. Fine herringbone floors, ornate crown moldings trimming out 14' ceilings, fireplaces each with a unique design and finish and one-of-a-kind stained and leaded glass windows are but a few of the home's distinctive features. A mix of formal rooms and "everyday" spaces blend perfectly to accommodate a range of lifestyles. There are pocket doors, built-in shelving in the library, a musician's alcove and more. This rare property has retained much of its original charm. The semi-finished attic and basement await your creative flare should you wish to expand the already considerable square footage of this wonderful residence.
