Description
Before we entice you with the wonders of this beautiful residence, it’s important to note that the Lippincott is one of the few original buildings of distinction that line Washington Square. At one point in time, it was the largest publishing house in the world. And Washington Square has been, & still is, one of the most coveted locations in Philadelphia. Now for your tour:  Enter the  Residences  of the Lippincott through a tasteful newly upgraded lobby, hosted by a 24-hour concierge/door person(s).  Take the private elevator & arrive directly into the foyer of your home. As you enter the residence, there are a few things you will immediately take note of, they include: the gorgeous wood flooring that runs throughout, the neutral & soothing paint tones & the glorious, bright, open & airy floor plan. If you enjoy natural sunlight, you will love this property! Stroll to your right down a short hallway which opens-up to a kitchen, dining room & living room combination. The kitchen boasts endless quartz countertop space, including a large eat-on section with barstool seating.

Like the living room, it also boasts the charm of floor to ceiling brick walls & has a separate door leading out to the porch. As you may have noticed as you walked through all the aforementioned rooms & as you continue on with your tour, every room in the house has high and tray ceilings with tasteful definitions.

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.
