309 Arch St

Welcome to this beautifully maintained 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo with a versatile bonus room, perfectly situated in the heart of historic Old City Philadelphia. This unit faces south onto a tree lined Arch Street overlooking the historic Quaker Meeting House. Just minutes from Center City, this home offers the ideal blend of urban convenience and neighborhood charm; it boasts all the character of the early industrial age: exposed brick and beams, wide plank natural wood floors, enormous factory windows that channel an immense amount of natural light into the living area. A galley kitchen outfitted with a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, wood cabinetry, and granite counters peer on to the open plan living area. A bedroom with a closet and laundry is tucked behind the kitchen area on the main level. A spiral staircase leads to the modern bathroom and loft area which can be used as an extra sleeping area, an office, in-home gym; all capped with towering ceiling height that adds space and depth to the loft experience. Some history of the building: The Hoopskirt Factory was built in the 1800's to manufacture bouffant petticoats that were a mainstay of women's fashion at that time. The units still maintain much of character. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or seeking an investment in a prime location, this Old City gem is a rare find.
