Property Description
Welcome to 1106 Watkins Street, a beautifully restored home originally built in 1925 and fully rehabbed in 2023, blending historic charm with modern design. Tucked just off vibrant Passyunk Avenue in the heart of East Passyunk, this approximately 2,500 square foot residence offers three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, multiple outdoor spaces, and stunning city views. The home welcomes you with a rare Tofani front door, an iconic mid century ornamental door featuring etched glass panels in geometric and starburst patterns. These doors have become a beloved South Philadelphia design element and a true cultural artifact. Inside, the sun drenched main living level showcases soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and preserved historic details, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The chef's kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and seamless flow into the dining and living areas. The dining space also features a built in wine fridge, perfect for hosting and keeping your favorite bottles close at hand. The finished lower level provides flexible bonus space, perfect for a media room, gym, playroom, or guest overflow, complete with a convenient half bathroom. On the second floor, you will find two spacious bedrooms, a beautifully finished hall bathroom with timeless tile and brass fixtures, and a large walk in laundry room. The third floor is devoted to an expansive primary suite featuring a walk in closet and a luxurious bathroom with dual vanities, a rainfall shower, and soaring ceilings. A private deck just off the suite offers beautiful skyline views. At the top of the home, the rooftop deck offers panoramic city views and the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining above the neighborhood. Just around the corner from James Beard Award winning and Michelin recommended restaurants like Sao, River Twice, and Mish Mish, this home combines historic character and modern comfort in one of Philadelphia's most sought after neighborhoods. 1106 Watkins Street comes with 7 years remaining on the 10 year tax abatement.
