Description

Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined mews just steps from Rittenhouse Square, 2110 Sansom Street offers a rare opportunity to live in one of Philadelphia’s most architecturally celebrated modern residences. Designed by renowned architect Cecil Baker, this striking home within the coveted Van Pelt Mews blends bold contemporary design with the privacy and ease of townhouse living — all with no condo fee.

A private oversized garage provides secure, direct entry into the residence — an exceptional luxury in the heart of Rittenhouse. With 136" (just over 11') ceilings in the garage, it leaves room for an optional lift to be added for a second car. A second entrance (on the side at 107 VanPelt St) through the charming landscaped courtyard adds an additional layer of character and discretion, giving the home the feeling of a hidden retreat within the city.

Inside, the architecture truly takes center stage. Soaring ceilings, expansive windows, warm hardwood floors, and sleek, minimalist finishes create a space that is both sophisticated and inviting. Natural light floods the open-concept main living level, where a chef’s kitchen anchors the home—featuring custom wood cabinetry, with Sub Zero, Wolf and Asko paneled appliances and quartz countertops that seamlessly extend into the backsplash. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a generous dining area and an airy living room, creating an ideal setting for both intimate dinners and entertaining before stepping out to the neighborhood’s renowned restaurants.
The ground level offers a welcoming foyer, access to the oversized garage, and a private guest suite with a full bath—perfect for visitors—along with access to the outdoor patio and entry.
Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat, complete with a spa-like en-suite bath and a spacious walk-in closet. An additional bedroom features its own en-suite bath, along with beautiful arched windows and doors leading to a Juliet balcony. A versatile bonus room, adjacent to a full hall bath, provides flexibility for a variety of uses—whether as a home office, gym, media lounge, or additional bedroom. Tax Abatement Expires 12-31-2028.

Outside your door, the very best of Rittenhouse awaits — morning coffee at neighborhood cafés, evening dinners at award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, fitness studios, and the timeless beauty of Rittenhouse Square Park just moments away. It is also in the sought after Greenfield Elementary school catchment.

With a Walk Score of 99, this is effortless city living at its finest — where architecture, privacy, and neighborhood energy come together in one exceptional home.
