Property Description

Refined single-floor living awaits in this masterfully curated, architecturally distinctive second-floor residence at 1606 Chestnut Street.

Every detail reflects a commitment to craftsmanship and design, with bespoke custom cabinetry and thoughtfully integrated built-ins throughout. The open and airy 19-foot wide living room is a true showpiece, highlighted by 9.5-foot ceilings, exposed brick and oversized bay windows flooding the space with natural light. At the heart of the residence is a remarkable 32-foot chef's kitchen, impeccably designed with striking custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and elegant terrazzo tile flooring. Two center islands provide approximately 13 feet of counter space, making the kitchen ideal for entertaining, casual gatherings, and everyday cooking. Abundant built-in storage completes the space, seamlessly blending style and functionality. The formal dining area comfortably accommodates eight guests and is enhanced by a luminous light well, introducing an elevated architectural element and natural ambiance.

The primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with dual walk-in closets and a spa-caliber en-suite bath featuring custom millwork, double vanities, a water closet and an oversized rain shower designed for ultimate relaxation. Currently configured as an expansive one-bedroom residence, the home offers the flexibility to seamlessly convert the den into a true second bedroom (reference the proposed layout in photo gallery) A thoughtfully designed floor plan is available for review in the photo gallery. Originally built in the 1890s by Isaac S. Miller and designed by architect Albert W. Dilks, 1606 Chestnut Street was notably advanced for its time, featuring two elevators and a central skylight that allows natural light to filter through the building. The interiors were crafted by master woodworker Francis D. Kramer, the building's first tenant..

This address offers an elevated urban lifestyle where everything you desire is just steps from your door. One storage locker included in the sale.
