Welcome to the Chestnut Lofts. Located at 2nd and Chestnut.

UPDATE: A wall has been built behind the sofa in the living room to give the second bedroom 100 % complete privacy. Pictures to come soon..

A boutique condominium building centrally located 3 blocks from the Liberty Bell, Independence hall and 1 block from Penns Landing and the waterfront. Step out your door to dine at cafes and restaurants or explore Old City in a horse drawn carriage. If visiting for a trade show, we are just a short walk to the convention center as well.

Our 1,200 square foot condo has granite counter tops, brand new stainless steal appliances, exposed brick walls and beautiful exposed wood beams. This condo also has Wifi. The building is a certified historic landmark and is a unique blend of both new and old. If you’re coming to Philadelphia to experience the history or enjoy the fine dining you could not ask for a better location.

About Josh Russell

My grandfather purchased this building in 1930 using it as his furniture store. My father developed the building into 20 offices and 16 condos selling off several while keeping this penthouse unit for himself.

Terrific urban way to experience Philly

Condo was very comfortable and in a perfect location for walking almost everywhere we wanted to go. We took public transportation only to art museums and to ballpark. Grocery, wine, and drug stores all within easy walking distance.

Would Stay Again

The instructions from Josh about arrival and departure were clear, accurate and helpful.
The home was perfect: clean, comfortable and well equipped with every amenity that we needed. It smelled good, the bed was comfortable, the sheets were good quality, there were enough towels and also good quality. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare breakfast and dinner in the apartment. The sofa was comfy and the TV was great to have.
The location was perfect, there are great restaurants and a movie theater within walking distance, not to mention the some of the countries most historic sites. We took the subway to a Phillies ballgame with out any problem.
It is really a perfect place to stay in Philadelphia.
One word of warning, do not park your car for one minute on the street without paying the parking fee, there is someone on foot out there who will ticket you in a heartbeat.to Philly. Try this place, you won't regret!!

Nice Place To Stay

I was really stressed out in the past 2 weeks, and finally get a weekend off, so I decided to go somewhere to relax and enjoy myself. I looked everywhere online, and I finally found this place on Home away.com,, which is affordable and at great location in Philly. I decided to give it a try. I am really glad that I gave a try, this condo is not only beautiful ( brick house with nice wood floor), , but convience ( it has everything you can think of - include free wifi, refrigerator, microwave, nice big plasma TV, dinnng table and etc). Don't even mentioned the clean folded towel in the bathroom, it totally like a 5 star hotel ( believe me, I travel to almost 20 countries up to now, this is the best I had!) I would recommend this place for anyone who need a business trip or family trip
to Philly. Try this place, you won't regret!!

The spot was perfect, and I really appreciate the attention of the owners when I needed to contact them on a couple of occasions. I broke the coffee pot on the granite counter (oops!) and a new one was by the front door the next morning! Great service! Comfortable, well equipped and good value. Nice neighbourhood and great access to public transit. Great dining in the area and lots to do. If you are in to art, check out the Barnes Collection and the Rodin Museum. All good!

This place was cool. The brick and the harwood floors were amazing, really neat space and nicely decorated, (even had a washer dryer). Location was close to all the historic sites and the building was safe.
