Nestled just steps from Philadelphia’s iconic Rittenhouse Square, this 1863 corner row house is a rare offering for the luxury buyer. Listed at $8.4 million with Compass, this 7,500 sq. ft. estate has undergone a meticulous multi-year restoration led by designer Eduardo Ardiles and acclaimed interior designer Steven Gambrel.
From its place on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places to the finely tailored interiors, this home delivers a refined blend of heritage and innovation. Soaring 14-foot ceilings, sun-filled exposures, and thoughtful updates bring a modern sensibility to its 19th-century structure.
The gourmet kitchen features limed oak cabinetry, stone countertops, a La Cornue double-oven range, and custom storage solutions. Entertain effortlessly with dual pantries and a built-in Argentine-style barbecue just outside. Upstairs, the primary suite is its own sanctuary—with a marble fireplace, Savile Row-inspired dressing room, and spa-level bath in silver oak and stone.
Additional highlights include a skylit top floor with guest suites and a den, a moody lower-level living area with radiant heated stone floors, and a private gated courtyard offering rare off-street parking.
This is more than a home—it’s a legacy property.
