Description

Welcome to the popular Coventry House, an exquisite 60-unit co-op nestled in the serene neighborhood of Elkins Park. Boasting meticulously maintained grounds and a charming lobby graced by a courteous doorperson available from 8 a.m. to midnight daily, this residence offers a lifestyle of comfort and convenience. Unit #702 is a penthouse situated on the 7th floor and presents a generous 1,800 sq. ft. floor plan with captivating views of Elkins Park from the balcony. This home has been lovingly maintained by only one family since 1966 when the Coventry House was built! As you enter the dwelling and step into the foyer, you will immediately notice the abundant closet space, setting the tone for the spaciousness within. The luminous living room, adorned with two expansive windows, welcomes you upon entry and shows off the light and airy feel throughout. But the real focal point of this room is the custom-built hand-crafted built-in wall units and credenza which can’t be missed. You will see that the craftsmanship and carpentry showcased throughout the residence are truly exceptional, embodying a level of artistry and attention to detail that elevates the living experience to unparalleled heights. The living room seamlessly flows into the formal dining room which boasts another beautifully hand-made built-in, and this room is illuminated by the large sliding doors leading to the balcony. The well-appointed eat-in galley kitchen is a comfortable haven, equipped with stainless steel appliances including a built-in range, built-in microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, and garbage disposal. The cabinetry, granite countertops, and tile backsplash make this an easy place to prepare your meals and entertain. The Primary Bedroom Suite is a sanctuary of comfort. It features a hallway of closets, a large bedroom with more floor-to-ceiling closets, a well-appointed dressing room with walls of closets, a primary bathroom which has been tastefully remodeled over recent years, and a custom-built dresser along the main wall. A versatile second bedroom, used currently as a den, boasts another wall unit with lighted shelving and cabinetry. This could be second bedroom, an office, a den…whatever you need. Completing the unit is the ceramic tile hall bath which has a very large closet. This bathroom used to have a tub and shower and has the potential to be converted to a full bath again. Additionally, a laundry room/utility room provide ample space for household items and pantry items. Coventry House fosters a pet-free and smoke-free environment, ensuring a serene atmosphere for all residents. Community events and activities are offered throughout the year.
