Philadelphia, PA 19141 4933 N 10Th Street

Hand-picked finishes and custom handcrafted details that didnt come at the expense of this homes historic charm are the standout features in this thoughtful renovation. Set back from the street behind a garden, the exterior has classic rowhome features: an extra-deep stone porchfront with decorative column and original front door beneath an upper-floor bay window with decorative trim. Inside, much of the original woodwork is intact, and lovely narrow-width oak floors with inlay run throughout. The living room has a pair of oversized front windows, decorative fireplace and some of the original vestibule wainscoting preserved as an ornamental element. A powder room creates some separation between the living and dining rooms; it has a vanity with concrete sink and Vigo basin custom made for the space from a salvaged dresser drawer. The dining room has a sweet vintage-inspired light fixture and an extra-large coat and storage closet. Its wide open to the kitchen, which is not the same old cookie-cutter look youve seen in so many other houses. There are white solid wood cabinets with a handcrafted detailed endcap thats a subtle nod to the homes history; open corner shelving; concrete countertops with an extra-wide stainless steel sink; an MCM-style atomic light chandelier; large-format porcelain tile floor and veined backsplash; and stainless steel GE and Whirlpool appliances including a five-burner range. A window with an extra-deep sill above the sink begs for an indoor herb garden. Out back there's a new porch with steps down to the large-for-the-city yard. Upstairs the primary suite is a large room with a bay window and an enormous closet that runs nearly the full length of the room. The en-suite bathroom has an oversized concrete-topped salvaged vanity with Vigo basin sink and stacked elongated subway tile backsplash. The large walk-in shower has white hex tile floors and a custom surround with white elongated subway tile topped with veined porcelain slabs. The large rear bedroom has two exposures, one from a window flanked by closets with original mirrored doors. The middle bedroom more than qualifies as such, with a window, closet and ample space for a full size bed. They share a hall bath that has large-format porcelain tile flooring and tub surround and a vanity with trough-style sink and Vigo oil rubbed bronze hardware. This nice wide, garden-lined Logan block is convenient to Broad St and the Boulevard, plus two parks: 10-acre Hunting Park Rec Center with a pool, sports facilities, farmers market and other community activities; and Barrett Playground, which is currently undergoing major upgrades.
