About this home
Sitting proudly at the corner of 5th Street and Locust Walk, 36 Saint James pairs striking natural light and modernist aesthetics with comfortable bi-level living in the center of Society Hill. Part of the Saint James Court Community, just off of Washington Square, this upper-level home takes full advantage of its eastern, western, and southern exposures through a dramatic, two-story window that illuminates the main floor.
Step inside and ascend to the open living and dining room, an inviting space defined by soaring ceilings and twin floor-to-ceiling mullioned windows that frame treetop views and bathe the room in natural light. Just beyond, a thoughtfully placed hallway leads to the kitchen, outfitted with abundant cabinetry, a stainless steel backsplash, and a breakfast bar. Opposite the kitchen is a full three-piece bathroom with a stall shower, featuring ceramic tiling throughout.
At the rear of this level is a flexible bedroom with a built-in bookshelf, currently enjoyed as a media and family room. Its quiet positioning and generous proportions make it equally suited for guests, hobbies, or daily retreat, and two large walk-in closets provide ample storage.
Upstairs, the primary suite feels wonderfully private. A lofted space overlooks the living room and the dramatic double-height window—ideal for an office, reading nook, or studio area. The suite includes a full wall of closet storage and a newly renovated bathroom with marble tiling, a defogging mirror, subway tiling, and a glass-enclosed tub & shower combination with its own skylight. Step out from the bedroom onto your private balcony/deck, where views into the serene interior of St. James Court create a peaceful outdoor escape.
All of this is set within one of Society Hill’s most cherished enclaves, just steps from Washington Square, the National Independence parks and historic Philadelphia, PSC Gym, easy walk to the Ritz movie theaters and tons of fine Philadelphia restaurants, Zahav, Talulah's Garden, Farmacia, Cafe Freida and so many more. Additionally, the seller is including 1 year PREPAID PARKING with an acceptable offer! In the heart of Historic Philadelphia perched in your private oasis, come make Saint James Court your home today!
