Description
SELLER FINANCING NOW AVAILABLE AT AN INCREDIBLE 3% INTEREST RATE! A RARE OPPORTUNITY. CONTACT THE LISTING AGENT FOR MORE DETAILS. Welcome to The Estates at Queen Village, a rare opportunity to own a newly constructed, meticulously crafted luxury townhome in one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after and culturally rich neighborhoods. 10-Year Tax Abatement and multiple outdoor spaces! Surrounded by tree-lined streets, award-winning restaurants, cafés, and historic architecture, this 4,000+ sq. ft. stunner offers the perfect blend of city energy, modern design, and suburban-style comfort. Every inch of this 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath home has been thoughtfully designed to elevate your lifestyle. From the moment you arrive, the vibe is unmatched—starting with a private, heated two-car garage featuring epoxy-finished floors, EV pre-wiring, and double secured garage doors for privacy and security. A welcoming foyer with custom storage leads to the fully finished, day-lit lower level with radiant heated floors, a full wet bar with wine fridge, spa-style bathroom, and a versatile bedroom ideal for guests, gym, media room, or home office. The main level stuns with soaring 12-foot ceilings, wide-plank white oak flooring, and dramatic architectural elements—floating glass staircases, interior soundproofing, and premium custom millwork. The formal living room features floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with light, while the expansive family room is anchored by custom built-ins, accent lighting, and a sleek marble-finished gas fireplace. At the heart is a chef-worthy kitchen with bespoke European cabinetry, Viking appliances—including a pro-grade gas range, double wall ovens, wine fridge, microwave, and dishwasher—quartz waterfall island, and designer lighting. Two outdoor areas on this level enhance the indoor-outdoor lifestyle: a balcony off the dining area and a spiral staircase leading to a rear patio with built-in gas firepit. The second floor is dedicated to a luxurious primary suite with oversized windows and a spa-inspired bath featuring heated floors, deep soaking tub, oversized rain shower, double vanities with LED mirrors, and a custom walk-in closet. Another en-suite bedroom and second laundry area add comfort and convenience. On the third floor, you'll find two additional bedrooms—one with a private balcony—plus two full baths. An open-concept flex space with built-in wet bar and wine fridge is perfect for a second living area, office, or gym. The crown jewel? A private rooftop deck with unobstructed skyline views of Philadelphia. Outfitted with custom lighting and fiberglass tile, this space is perfect for relaxing or entertaining. With an acceptable offer, the builder will include a full outdoor kitchen and cabana—your personal rooftop oasis. Other highlights: radiant heated floors in basement and primary bath, dual laundry areas, dual-zone HVAC, and a main panel with sub-panel for energy efficiency. A comprehensive builder’s warranty ensures long-term peace of mind.

Climate and Weather
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.
