Hang your hat at the coveted 1706 Rittenhouse highrise, where unmatched privacy and security meet sweeping city vistas.
Sweeping city views serve as the backdrop for this stunning home
When thinking of apartment-style living, privacy might not be the first amenity that comes to mind, except at 1706 Rittenhouse Square, where almost every unit commands the entire floor.

Unit 1601 wows with 10-foot ceilings, two private balconies, floor-to-ceiling windows, three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two-car on-site garage parking spaces, Center City views and more.
The contemporary kitchen’s extensive counter space makes dinner party prep easy.
“The privacy factor of being a full floor with direct elevator access is what I believe makes this building so special,” says listing agent Kristen Foote. “Each boasting 4,200 square feet with 360-degree views makes this building one of a kind in Philadelphia.”
The generous living area features sleek, modern touches.
Upon stepping inside on white oak floors, notice how elevated, modern details command every space. The sleek, open-concept kitchen and dining area welcomes chefs with stainless steel Sub-Zero and Miele appliances overlooking the city.
City lights illuminate all of the bedrooms.
“I love the open and spacious eat-in kitchen designed by Joanne Hudson,” notes Foote. “It faces West, which provides the most spectacular unobstructed sunsets. The kitchen was designed so you can have a large table to entertain in addition to a seating area to enjoy cocktails and a spectacular view!”
An elegant dining area is perfect for hosting soirées.
Store every tool you need in custom cabinets and enjoy casual meals at the center island or nearby dining room—here, dinner parties are illuminated by the city lights.
Residents can enjoy luxurious common spaces.
Down the hall, floor-to-ceiling windows continue into the primary suite, which boasts cozy Stark carpeting, a walk-in closet with California Closets and an adjoining, spacious bathroom coated in Carrara marble and a soaking tub.
Relax in one of the home’s many living spaces while overlooking the city.
For an additional space to unwind, a modern family room features a gas fireplace and mirrored chimney surrounded by floating shelves prepared to house art, books, photos and more.
The unit features stunning white oak floors
While the cozy space is perfectly outfitted for brisk winters, an adjoining balcony perched sixteen floors above the neighborhood will be the ideal space to unwind with a cocktail all summer long.

But more awaits outside Unit 1601. Residents are only an elevator ride away from a tranquil spa, state-of-the-art fitness center with a sauna, 42-foot lap pool and hot tub, on-site club room and lush garden that boasts a fountain and pond. A fully automated parking system and 24/7 concierge services sweeten the deal. $3.99 million, 1706 Rittenhouse Square #1601, Kristen Foote, 215.767.0754, 1706rittenhouse1601.com
