Spanning over 2,200 sq. ft., this home features two spacious primary bedroom suites and three full bathrooms. A standout benefit of this residence is the monthly condo fee, which includes all monthly utilities for effortless living (only monthly plug in electric is separate). The main level is defined by soaring 18-foot ceilings and dramatic two-story windows that saturate the space in natural light. Authentic loft elements—exposed wood & metal beams, original red brick, and rich wood flooring—blend historic character with high-end comfort. A rare 730-square-foot private rooftop deck provides a massive outdoor retreat w/fantastic skyline views. The kitchen is equipped for serious hosting with solid stone counters, a 36-inch Wolf oven, Sub-Zero fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and a Viking beverage center. The main floor also hosts a stylish half bath, a dedicated laundry room, and a large corner bedroom with an ensuite bath. The mezzanine level features a versatile open den currently used as an office that could easily be converted into a true third bedroom. This upper level also leads to a private top-floor primary suite with a skylight-lit soaking tub and natural stone finishes. Located steps from Reading Terminal Market and Trader Joe’s, this home is situated within the McCall School Catchment. With an acceptable offer, the seller is including one year of prepaid garage parking located just half a block away.
