1923 Manning St, Philadelphia, PA, 19103

About This Home

One block from Rittenhouse Square, 1923 Manning Street is a fully restored and structurally reimagined townhome offering over 4,000 square feet of elevator-served living behind a preserved 1860s façade. Arranged across five levels, this 4-bedroom, 4 full and 2 half bath residence combines historic character with a discreet vertical addition and modern infrastructure rarely found this close to the Square. A sculptural floating staircase anchors the interior, complemented by engineered Brazilian Oak wide-plank flooring and expansive natural light. The main level flows seamlessly from living and dining spaces into a chef-caliber kitchen appointed with Porcelanosa cabinetry, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, Bosch integration, and genuine soapstone countertops. Private outdoor space extends entertaining beyond the kitchen. The entire third level is devoted to a vaulted primary suite with skylights, fireplace, walk-in closet, and spa-level bath featuring radiant heated floors. Additional bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned for privacy and flexibility. The finished lower level provides additional living space with a full bath — ideal for media, fitness, office, or guests. At the top, sliding glass doors open to a roof terrace with sweeping skyline views and integrated outdoor kitchen — a rare indoor-outdoor experience within one block of the Square. Supported by 3-zone Carrier HVAC, commercial-grade 2-hour exterior and elevator shaft construction, engineered shear wall structure, and tankless hot water with recirculation, the home offers structural depth beyond typical renovations in this micro-location. Two nearby garage parking spaces are available (rented and prepaid for one year with an acceptable offer). Situated on a quiet Manning Street block steps from Walnut Street and the Square itself, this residence offers rare scale, elevator integration, and architectural integrity in one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after neighborhoods. 10-year tax abatement approved.
