Property Description
Welcome to 1231 E Moyamensing - a thoughtfully reimagined Pennsport home where custom craftsmanship meets everyday luxury. Properties like this don't come on the market often. Every upgrade was curated with intention, quality, and timeless design in mind - a home that truly stands apart from cookie-cutter finishes. With approximately five years remaining on the tax abatement, buyers will enjoy the added benefit of low taxes while living in a high-end, fully upgraded space. Ideally located in the north section of Pennsport near the Queen Village border, you're just steps from Herman's Coffee and surrounded by some of South Philly's best outdoor spaces. Walk the dog through Jefferson Square, spend afternoons at Shot Tower Playground, Heron Sprayground, or Dickinson Square Park with its beloved farmer's market, or jog straight to the riverfront and Spruce Street Harbor Park with easy access to I-95. Inside, the open floor plan flows effortlessly, offering bright living and dining spaces perfect for entertaining, plus a finished basement for added living, guest, or work-from-home flexibility. What truly elevates this home is the level of customization: detailed millwork throughout, mahogany window returns, hand made and locally designed light fixtures, bespoke closets, marble bathroom details, artisan tile, and premium hardware selections that bring warmth and character to every room. Recent cosmetic refreshes to both bathrooms and kitchen reflect magazine-worthy style, while practical upgrades like Nest thermostats, smart LG laundry tower, professional painting, and HVAC servicing ensure peace of mind. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where the design decisions were driven by passion, not resale shortcuts - a space that feels curated, personal, and enduring. Showings will begin at the Premiere Valentine's Day Open House on Saturday 2/14 from 11-1pm. Don't miss your chance to see this gem before it's gone.
