About this home
Welcome to 1818 Delancey Place—a magnificent 20-foot-wide historic residence with Garage Parking, nestled on one of Philadelphia’s most iconic and coveted blocks. Just one block from Rittenhouse Square, this elegant Federal-style home offers over 4,300 square feet of sun-drenched, beautifully proportioned living space, blending timeless architectural detail with modern comfort and flexibility.
Enter through dual arched foyers and ascend two marble steps into a grand, light-filled formal dining room with soaring 12-foot ceilings, intricate crown moulding, and a stately original fireplace. A decorative niche provides the perfect spot to showcase artwork, creating a striking focal point. Custom inlaid flooring flows gracefully through the main level, visually connecting each space. A large archway leads to the refined living room at the front of the home, where tall windows overlook tree-lined Delancey Place and its distinguished facades, filling the space with natural light. Just off the dining room, French doors open to an intimate deck—also accessible from the spacious eat-in kitchen—perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails.
The expansive kitchen is anchored by a large, south-facing window that floods the space with natural light. With abundant cabinetry and generous proportions, it's ideal for designing your dream chef’s kitchen. A wide hallway connects the kitchen to the dining area and includes a coat closet, powder room, and access to the basement.
The second floor features a sunlit, oversized library at the top of the stairs, complete with custom bookshelves, a wood-burning fireplace, and an adjacent wet bar—perfect for reading, relaxing, or entertaining. At the front of the home, the luxurious primary suite features high ceilings, tall windows, recessed lighting, and a decorative marble fireplace. Dual closets—including a walk-in—lead to the spacious en-suite bath, a marble-and-tile retreat with spa-like elegance.
On the third floor, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms with high ceilings, ample closet space, and en-suite baths. The front bedroom includes a private dressing room, while the rear bathroom exudes vintage charm with a clawfoot tub and beautiful tilework.
The fourth floor offers a versatile front room with original random-width hardwood floors and a large skylight—perfect for a bedroom, studio, home office, or playroom. This level also includes a half bath, additional closets, and access to a potential roof deck. A bonus room adds flexibility as a gym, creative studio, or luggage room, or even a 6th bedroom.
The partially finished basement features a spacious laundry room with double soaking sinks, a temperature-controlled wine cabinet, a half bath, ample storage, and direct access to the one-car garage via a heated driveway on Panama Street.
Additional highlights include three working wood-burning fireplaces, three-zone HVAC, and built-in surround sound. With its unparalleled location, rich history, and expansive layout, 1818 Delancey Place is a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional home on Philadelphia’s most admired street.
