Welcome to 801 S 18th Street, a truly well-appointed residence with garage parking nestled in the heart of Graduate Hospital, where timeless design meets custom modern luxury and every detail feels considered. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by an open and airy layout with rich hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light pouring in through custom window treatments. The main level offers a seamless flow from the spacious living area, featuring a decorative fireplace flanked by custom built-ins, through the dining space, and into a beautifully crafted chef’s kitchen. Anchored by a stunning Bertazzoni six-burner range, the kitchen features marble countertops, a large island with bar seating, a farmhouse sink, pendant lighting, and a subway tile backsplash. It’s a dream setup for anyone who loves to cook, entertain, or simply enjoy their space. Upstairs, the primary suite feels more like a private retreat. The walk-in closet is essentially a room of its own - complete with custom built-ins, a sitting bench beneath a large picture window, and seamless access to a luxurious en-suite bath. Here you’ll find a spa-like space with a rainfall shower, freestanding soaking tub, heated floors, double vanity, and elegant marble and ceramic tile throughout. A second bedroom offers exposed brick, excellent light, and skyline views, with a large full hall bath nearby, complete with a double vanity and a shower/tub combo. A third bedroom, generously sized, and office with custom live-edge hardwood desks and storage complete this level. The lower level is fully finished and incredibly functional, offering a heated floor system, high ceilings, and a sleek built-in bar tucked cleverly under the stairs. There’s also a half bath on this level, along with storage, utility space, a wine chiller, and even a safe (included in the sale). Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. Just off the third floor, a private walkout leads to a two-tier roof deck overlooking Marian Anderson Park, one of the best, most protected skyline views in the entire city. The lower tier includes a built-in grill, sink, storage, and even a smoker and herb garden, while the upper tier offers room to lounge, dine, or host unforgettable gatherings under the city lights. Other standout features include a sizable 1-car garage with interior access, Third-floor wet bar with wine fridge, tankless hot water heater, built-in security system, premium smart thermostat, and more. Originally custom-built by a local builder for his own family, this home offers thoughtful upgrades at every turn, outstanding flow, tons of storage, and the perfect balance of function and style. Whether you’re entertaining on the roof, cooking with top-of-the-line appliances, or enjoying the peaceful views over the park, 801 S 18th Street delivers a rare blend of luxury and livability in one of Philadelphia’s most desirable neighborhoods.
