Something rarely offered: 2-Car, interior deeded Garage Parking, with a large 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath Converted Industrial Loft. Soaring high ceilings, refinished hardwood floors, exposed brick, central air, and two outdoor spaces – all one block from Standard Tap and the best spots in Northern Liberties. The climate-controlled Private Garage entry is right out front on Hancock St, with two deeded parking spaces inside. This is Unit #10: on the 2nd floor, a large bi-level, very quiet unit with 2,473 sq.ft.

1ST LEVEL: Enter from the hall into a vestibule with built-in storage, passing into the first of two large open and flexible spaces.

1ST LARGE AREA of the loft features a skylight, 20′ ceilings, a wall of custom storage cabinets and offers space for formal dining, living, or creative projects.

1ST BEDROOM: There is a private room off to the left, which can serve as a bedroom, a guest room, or a large office, complete with a walk-in closet. Also to the left, there is a 2nd alcove that can be used for a den, a guest room, an office area, or additional storage.

1ST FULL BATH with custom ceramic tile and glass shower is placed unassumingly at the transition between the main 1st floor spaces, along with a full laundry closet.

2ND LARGE AREA of the loft is very large, again with 20′ ceilings, and great light. This is a great space for living, dining, and entertaining, and features stairs to sliding doors exiting to the 1st of 2 outdoor areas.

KITCHEN & PANTRY is off to the side of the main space and features a large skylight, custom lighting, gas cooking, disposal, stainless fridge, granite counters, a long workstation, comfortable space for table & chairs, and plenty of storage with a huge pantry room to the rear.

2ND OUTDOOR SPACE & ROOF DECK: Sliding doors in the kitchen exit to an outside landing and steps up to a lovely 2-level deck, with great views, a hard-to-find sense of privacy, and plenty of space for grilling, entertaining or relaxing.

UPPER LEVEL of THE LOFT: The open stairs lead to a lovely quiet bedroom area with wood floors and more exposed brick. The 2nd level extends as a mezzanine and also offers a full ceramic bath and another large area for dressing and storage with an elaborate custom closet/storage system and an impressive view down into the main space.

THE PARKING: Rarely found in the City, this unit comes with 2 deeded parking spaces, in a very spacious, well it and completely dry garage protected from the elements. No skinny back-alley driveways to navigate – here you enter right into the garage directly from Hancock Street 24/7 through the large automatic door, for easy-in/easy-out. The garage connects to the building’s interior hallway – no need to head back into the cold.

OTHER DETAILS: The street entrance is secured with an electronic lock and digital call box/intercom. There is a video camera security system in the garage as well as the lobby and front of the building – all residents can monitor. Common areas are well maintained and nearly all the units are owner-occupied. This is a cared-for space, occupied by the current owner until a few weeks ago. The owner has commissioned plans/drawings of the unit from the celebrated firm, Ambit Architecture, included in the sale, detailing innovative design options.

ABOUT THE LOCATION: For those new to Philadelphia – this is Northern Liberties, one of Phila’s most creative and exciting neighborhoods, very close to Center City (a few minutes drive, 10 minutes on Train via Spring Garden Station in walking distance, or 10 minutes to downtown on Bike). Very close to I-95, I-676, the bridges to Jersey, and an easy shot to Delaware or Bucks County. The neighborhood is full of restaurants, shops, great coffee, food from around the world, bowling, and music venues. Close to the Delaware River (Penn Treaty Park, Penn’s Landing, and Spruce Harbor Park.) Come visit to appreciate this unique stunning space. The unit is easy to show.
