About this home
Incredible opportunity to own a beautifully reimagined home on one of the most charming blocks in Rittenhouse Square. Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, 2047 Waverly Street seamlessly blends modern design, refined architectural details, and preserved original character to create a truly exceptional residence. This stunning home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a lower-level den, and a private outdoor patio—an ideal combination of style, comfort, and functionality. The classic red brick façade with black trim creates striking curb appeal and sets the tone for what awaits inside. The main level welcomes you with tall ceilings, abundant natural light, and a bright, airy layout. A sleek monochrome kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home, featuring 42-inch gray cabinetry, quartz countertops, a designer tile backsplash, herringbone tile flooring, and high-end Bertazzoni stainless steel appliances. Pendant lighting highlights the island with seating, creating the perfect space for casual dining or entertaining. Restored original hardwood floors flow throughout the dining area and into the inviting living room, where a fireplace and custom built-ins add warmth and character. French doors open to a peaceful private patio, also accessible via a rear alley, providing an ideal outdoor retreat for gardening, entertaining, or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. The second level features two bright bedrooms with ample closet space, positioned at opposite ends of the floor for privacy, along with a beautifully updated full bathroom at the center. The entire third floor is dedicated to a luxurious, hotel-inspired primary suite featuring soaring cathedral ceilings, skylights, large windows, a fireplace, and built-in cabinetry. A spacious custom-built walk-in closet offers the ultimate in organization, while the spa-like bathroom includes a double vanity, linen shelving, and a stunning glass-enclosed dual-head shower finished with elegant chevron tile. The finished lower level is completely DRY giving the owner peace of mind from the older wet basements that typically exist and provides additional versatile living space ideal for a den, home office, gym, or extra storage. Nearly every aspect of the home is brand new, including all plumbing with a new sewer line, complete electrical wiring and panel, new windows, two fully renovated bathrooms, the designer kitchen, and all mechanical systems, including a new gas furnace, central air conditioning, and gas hot water heater, along with a full-size washer and dryer. Located in the heart of Rittenhouse Square, the home offers exceptional walkability, with a Walk Score of 99, a Transit Score of 96, and a Bike Score of 100. Daily conveniences are multiple cafes, Food and Friends, South Square Market, and Wawa are just steps away, along with some of Philadelphia’s most beloved restaurants, including Pub & Kitchen, Sabrina’s Cafe, Parc, Borromini, D'Angelos and Trattoria Carina. Rittenhouse Square Park and the Schuylkill River Trail are only a few blocks away, and the property offers easy access to Center City, the University of Pennsylvania, public transportation, and I-76. Situated within the highly sought-after Greenfield School Catchment and offering low-maintenance living with no association fees, this hidden Rittenhouse Square gem delivers the perfect balance of location, design, and modern upgrades.
