Property Description
Set within the charming enclave of Blackwell Place—an intimate collection of Colonial-style homes arranged around a beautifully landscaped community lawn—this 3-bedroom, 3-story townhome offers a rare blend of privacy, character, and convenience in the heart of Society Hill, complete with the added benefit of deeded garage parking.
A gracious foyer welcomes you into a spacious open living and dining area designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Anchored by built-in shelving and a gas fireplace, the space is filled with natural light and highlighted by oak hardwood flooring throughout. A glass wall of French doors leads to a private rear garden patio—a rare private outdoor space ideal for morning coffee, quiet relaxation, or intimate gatherings.
At the front of the home, the thoughtfully designed kitchen combines style and function with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a Viking six-burner range, and solid wood cabinetry. A discreet powder room adds convenience to the main living level.
Upstairs, the second floor features a flexible rear room currently configured as a sitting area with built-in shelving—perfect for a den, home office, or guest retreat. A dedicated laundry room on this level adds everyday ease. At the front, a spacious bedroom suite includes an ensuite bathroom and two well-sized closets.
The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and abundant storage. The rear bedroom features built-in shelving, recessed lighting, and a mini-split system for efficient climate control. Three hallway closets provide additional storage options. At the front, the primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with an ensuite tiled bath featuring a glass-enclosed shower and a separate soaking tub with handheld wand—an ideal place to unwind at the end of the day.
The finished lower level adds versatility, with ample storage including two large closets and flexible space well suited for hobbies, organization, or additional living needs, along with dedicated mechanical and storage areas. Additional improvements includes a newer roof installed in 2015, providing added peace of mind. The home is also located within the sought-after McCall School catchment.
