About This Home

Available Oct 2

A Grand Residence Reimagined â€“ The Bank Building 421 Chestnut St Unit 401, Gracious in scale and rich with architectural detail, Unit 401 at The Bank Building offers a rare combination of historic craftsmanship and crisp, modern updates. Spanning 3,068 square feet with soaring ceilings and a sweeping southern exposure overlooking Philadelphiaâ€™s historic core, this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence has been freshly painted, professionally staged, and thoughtfully refined to highlight its neoclassical elegance. A custom double-door entry opens into a dramatic marble-clad foyer, where Carrara and Bardiglio flooring meet a coffered Venetian plaster ceiling edged in authentic gold leaf. Throughout the home, fine moldings trim each ceiling, reinforcing the refined character of the architecture. The expansive great room offers light, volume, and warmth, framed by Versailles-pattern oak floors, a custom marble fireplace mantel, and oversized soundproof windows that capture panoramic views of iconic landmarks such as the Second Bank of the United States. A newly positioned writing desk beneath the southern-facing window provides a daily connection to the cityâ€™s storied past. The adjacent Joanne Hudson-designed kitchen is a chefâ€™s showpiece, outfitted with paneled Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Wolf dual-fuel range, Miele dishwasher, designer tile backsplash, and a solid walnut island that anchors the space for both everyday use and elegant entertaining. The private bedroom wing begins with the primary suite: a tranquil retreat with a generous sitting area, a custom-outfitted closet, and a spa-caliber limestone bath. The bath features a whirlpool soaking tub, a double vanity, and an oversized frameless glass shower equipped with eight showerheads for a true luxury experience. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for guest accommodations, a home office, or both. A full hall bathroom serves this wing of the home, providing privacy and convenience separate from the primary suite. Recent upgrades include fresh paint throughout, removal of dated wallpaper, ceiling touch-ups, drapery removal, and full professional staging, allowing the homeâ€™s natural light, scale, and detailing to shine through. As a resident of The Bank Building, youâ€™ll enjoy complimentary access to the state-of-the-art fitness center at the adjoining Renaissance Hotel, along with optional Ã la carte services such as valet parking, room service, and housekeeping. Secure building entry, a concierge-level doorman, and elevator access offer both convenience and discretion. Located between Old City and Society Hill, The Bank Building stands at the intersection of charm and connectivityâ€”with a Walk Score of 99 and easy access to I-95, I-76, the Ben Franklin Bridge, 30th Street Station, and Philadelphia International Airport. Art galleries, fine dining, historic sites, and boutique shopping are all just steps from your front door. Unit 401 isnâ€™t just a residenceâ€”itâ€™s a statement of enduring elegance, intelligent design, and inspired city living in one of Philadelphiaâ€™s most iconic boutique buildings. This property is also available for sale.
