Peaceful living in a charming home with over 1500 Sq. Ft. of living space, 3 spacious bedrooms, an extra den, 2 full bathrooms, two fireplaces, modern updates throughout, and a private backyard, on a quiet block of Rodman St., just steps away restaurants and shops. The prime location and attractive streets of Rittenhouse Square are a few of the many advantages of living here. However, the 15th block of Rodman Street is special since there aren't many cars passing through, making it a very peaceful and calm street to live on. It goes without saying that Broad St., with its subway, theaters, shops, and other amenities, is only a block away. This unique home at 1531 Rodman has a great level of character, generous main floor, spacious 3 bedrooms, and a den that can be used as a reading area, office, or simply an extra living space. The kitchen includes extra-high cabinets and pantries with numerous pull-out drawers and features that cater to all of your kitchen storage needs. The granite countertop offers a large area to work on. In addition to the character of the main floor’s hardwood and fireplace, the third floor boasts vaulted ceilings that give its bedrooms another dimension of ease and beauty. To complete the oasis-feel of the 15th block of Rodman, this home offers a backyard that is spacious enough for your table, chairs, grill, and more. This home's backyard features a high-quality fence that does need much upkeep and will provide a more private outdoor experience. Moreover, a benefit of living at 1531 Rodman St., is that you never have to take the trash through the house. This special home has a “baker alley” which connects the backyard to the street. Bikers find this alley to be of great value as well because they can take their bikes out and back without going through the house. Not to forget the original Philadelphia Pi-stairs, full of character and much roomier than circular stairs. Sellers lived at this home for more than 11 years with family and friends of ages ranging from 3 yrs old to 85, quickly adjusting to the stairs' novelty, with never a problem. There is truly so much to love and appreciate about this unique home, from its multi-purpose den to its charming main floor and third floor vaulted ceilings, to its 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, generous kitchen, private backyard, and baker alley.
