Description
Welcome to The Estates at Queen Village, a rare opportunity to own a newly constructed, meticulously crafted luxury townhome in one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after and culturally rich neighborhoods. Surrounded by tree-lined streets, award-winning restaurants, artisan cafés, and historic architecture, this 4,000+ sq. ft. masterpiece delivers the ultimate blend of city living, modern design, and suburban-style space with the added benefit of a full 10-year tax abatement. Every inch of this 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath residence has been thoughtfully designed to elevate daily living. From the moment you arrive, the grandeur is unmistakable, beginning with a private, heated two-car garage featuring epoxy-finished floors, EV pre-wiring, and double garage doors for enhanced privacy and security. A welcoming foyer with custom storage leads to the fully finished lower level, offering radiant heated floors, a full wet bar with wine fridge, a spa-style bathroom, and a versatile bedroom perfect for guests, a home gym, media room, or office. The main level stuns with soaring 12-foot ceilings, wide-plank white oak hardwood floors, and dramatic architectural detailing, including floating glass-paneled staircases, interior soundproofing, and premium custom millwork throughout. The layout is both functional and elegant, beginning with a formal living area featuring floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. The expansive family room is equally impressive, anchored by stunning custom built-ins, accent lighting, and a sleek gas fireplace finished in marble. At the heart of this level is a showstopping kitchen designed for both style and performance. It features bespoke European cabinetry, a full suite of Viking appliances including a professional-grade gas range, double wall ovens, wine fridge, microwave, and dishwasher, a quartz waterfall island, and designer lighting. Two distinct outdoor areas on this level offer a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle: a private balcony off the dining area and a spiral staircase from the family room leading to the rear patio, complete with a built-in gas firepit. The second floor is dedicated to the luxurious primary suite, where oversized windows fill the room with natural light. The spa-inspired bath features heated floors, a deep soaking tub, oversized rain shower, double vanities with LED mirrors, and a custom walk-in closet. An additional en-suite bedroom and second laundry area provide added comfort and convenience. On the third level, you’ll find two additional bedrooms, including one with its own private balcony, along with two full bathrooms. This floor also features an open-concept flex space with a built-in wet bar and wine fridge, ideal for a second living area, home office, or in-home gym setup. Whether you're working from home or prioritizing wellness, this space adapts effortlessly to your lifestyle. The crown jewel of this residence is the private rooftop deck, where breathtaking unobstructed skyline views stretch across the Philadelphia cityscape. Outfitted with custom lighting and fiberglass tile flooring, this expansive space is ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or hosting under the stars. With an acceptable offer, the builder will include a complete outdoor kitchen and cabana setup, transforming the rooftop into your personal oasis in the sky. Additional highlights include radiant heated floors in both the basement and primary bathroom, two full laundry areas on separate levels, dual-zone HVAC systems, and a main electric panel with a sub-panel for energy efficiency. A comprehensive builder’s warranty offers peace of mind for years to come. With no detail overlooked and no compromise on luxury, this is more than a home. It’s a lifestyle.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
