Sneak Peek of Poplar Point!
One of the most unique properties in Northern liberties is projected to be listed on the market mid February. Take a sneak peek. List price is...well if you contact me I'll give you the inside scoop!
The 2 properties are beautifully appointed with thoughtfully chosen finishes so that they are not like every other new construction property out there. 902 and 904 New Market are the epitome of coolness with every angle, window and soffet intentionally spaced. This address incorporates the location and urban landscape right into the home. Daring and full of energy, but also warm and sophisticated.
902 with highrise inspired windows facing Poplar Street is breathtaking.
For those looking for something that follows more of a formal open floor plan, there is unit 904. This unit has a bold open layout on the first floor that is an absolute pleaser to everyone who enters with maximum flexibility to arrange furnishings and entertain.
Both properties offer finished decks and finished basements, private yards and gorgeous bamboo throughout, recessed lighting, cabinetry, appliances, and finishings that are trend on and chosen to provide lasting beauty for years and years to come.
Look for Poplar Point right here this February!

Tip Jar: Don’t Fore-go Your Pre-Settlement Walk-Through!
This tip is for our buyers out there! A pre-settlement walk-through is what we do right before a settlement occurs. Typically it includes the buyers and the buyers' agent and it is an opportunity to check out the property before you sign off on buying that home. The walk-through allows the buyer to check on the condition of the property to make sure all repairs have been done and nothing new has popped up. We want to make sure there are no problems at settlement or post settlement. That is why we walk through the property the day of the settlement, the day before settlement or in this case a few days before.
This pre-settlement walk-through in the video reveals that only 50% of the repairs have been completed and the seller has only a few days to get things wrapped up. If the seller fails to do so, then these few repair items can delay settlement. We certainly don't want that to happen! So, buyers... do not fore-go your pre-settlement walk-through!
