Wash West Federal Townhouse for $1.4M

The townhouse’s stunning office/den space. TREND photo copyright Joanne Davidow.

This Federal Townhouse on Ninth Street was built in the 19th century but refashioned in the 21st by its current owners, who worked with the firm of Voith & Mactavish to preserve the period details of the roughly 3,500-square-foot home while at the same time appoint it with all the latest features. So there’s the old (original pine floors, plaster walls, Federal Pennsylvania blue marble mantels) and the new (Ethernet and cable wiring; a kitchen with Miele, Subzero and Bosch appliances). In addition, there’s a 400 square-foot-garden that’s neither Philadelphia Federal nor high-tech sleek; it’s got a little Sino-Swedish thing going on.
