SoPhilly Spotlight: $1.5 million in Passyunk Square edition

Who would have seen this day come? This week’s SoPhilly Spotlight, at 1231 Gerritt St. (near 13th and Reed), comes in at a mind-blowing $1.5 million. You sure get a lot, even if it is a bit sterile.

Whoever designed the front made some terrible choices.

This 5,500-square-foot monster has 5 bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half bathrooms, two balconies, parking for two cars and a cool rec room with a wet bar. And you could probably comfortably fit 80 people for a party in your living room.

From the listing by Keller Williams (which we allowed them to correct all the mistakes noted in the comments below) :

Upon entering your new palatial home you are greeted by the spacious foyer with beautiful hardwood floors. Moving further inside, the home has an open floor plan. Illuminated by the striking natural light from the multiple windows in each room.

Those windows would have been a lot bigger, though, right? You’re allowed to nitpick when you fork over that much dough.

This is complimented by the sleek and modern kitchen with huge granite counter tops with tiled backs-plash, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinet storage. This is truly a kitchen and living area is ready to entertain a big gathering or maybe just a quiet night.

Moving up stairs you will find a master bedroom suite playing host to its own full bathroom and balcony access. Additionally, there is four more bedrooms. Each bedroom is unique and ready to be crafted to suite your needs. There is also a rec room with its own wet bar ready for entertaining.

The master...
The master…
...and its bath
…and its bath
And one of the many spare bedrooms

Didn’t we say something about a rec room and balconies? Ah, yes.

    It would be a bit better if the realtor learned how to spell…

    “Additionally, there is four more bedrooms each unique and ready to be crafted to suite your needs.”

    Good god, if you’re going to ask top dollar, at least write the listing in something approximating English.
