Property Description
Old City Creativity meets Main Line convenience! You CAN have the best of both worlds!
This bespoke spacious loft condominium unit was created in the conversion of an industrial loft building
reconfigured to create 31 unique units. Unit 209 is particularly well situated, overlooking the shared
lawn and dog run on the “quiet” side of the building. The current owners personalized their space,
inserting a floating home office structure, created by Bull Curran Design of Philadelphia. This practical,
yet dramatic statement structure literally “sets the stage” for the mid-century modern vibe that plays
out throughout the open spaces of the unit with soaring ceilings, large industrial tall windows that flood
the space with light, carefully chosen lighting, and large artwork walls to set off your furnishings and
show off your collections.
On the practical side of things, the kitchen is well located and laid out for ease of cooking and entertaining. The bedroom was crafted to allow natural flow of light while providing privacy, outfitted with modern bypass doors and a clever recess for flat screen mounting. The bathroom is spacious with an extended length vanity, linen storage and a full sized, in-unit, washer and dryer. The original
hardwood floors throughout add warmth to the space and are easy to maintain. And, there is lots of
out-of-the way storage! In addition to the fitted closets, the floating office provides for pull out storage
below, and this unit comes with a separate storage room in the building’s storage area that is almost
100 square feet large with a high ceiling, like getting an extra bedroom, just to stow your excess stuff!
2024R Upland Way is a very special building and a very special community. The tight-knit group of
residents share usage of a common library off the entry lobby, a community garden, outdoor lawn and a
dog run. There is also a large parking lot, where each resident has a dedicated parking space, and
additional spaces are available for your guests when they visit for a meal or to stay for the weekend!
The building even has a “front porch” with seating by the main entry, which has a dramatic tall lobby
with an industrial chic stairway and lighting, and a passenger elevator. There is a large freight elevator,
to bring up those large pieces of furniture and artwork that will so easily fit in your open space loft
home!
What really makes this home convenient, aside from dedicated parking and easy access to major roads, is the short walk to the Overbrook train station on the Paoli line. This is the first station out from 30 th Street station, making it a snap to take transit to Center City, University City, or to connect to the airport and the Amtrak Northeast Corridor. The convenience to the Paoli line makes this building a favored
home for those who teach or work at Penn, Drexel, Haverford, Bryn Mawr and Villanova, and of course, it’s just a short walk to St Joe’s Hawk Hill campus!
Why decide between City and Suburb when you can have the best of both right here?
