Property Description
Welcome to 1235 S. 3rd Street, a charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom rowhome in South Philadelphia offering character, comfortable living space, and an ideal walkable location. As you approach the home, you are greeted by a beautiful front entrance accented by a decorative floral stained glass window applique above the vibrant pink front door. Step inside through the vestibule and into the inviting living room, where hardwood floors span throughout most of the home and two bright front windows fill the space with natural light. Just beyond the living room, the dining room provides a comfortable space for everyday meals or entertaining, with direct access to the back patio for easy access to the HVAC system. The kitchen features tile flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a functional layout for everyday convenience. Upstairs, the first bedroom features a ceiling fan with light and works perfectly as the primary bedroom, complete with a full wall of closet space for ample clothing, shoes, and other storage. The full bathroom offers tile flooring, a partial tile wall, a step-in shower, a spacious soaking tub, and a double sink vanity. The second bedroom provides flexible space for a guest room, home office, or additional living area. The finished lower level adds even more usable space with tile flooring, a front-load washer and dryer, and a closet for storage. Recent improvements provide added peace of mind, including a new HVAC system, electric panel and service, hot water heater, sewer line replacements, gas line/meter repairs, chimney masonry repairs, new dryer vent, and a new roof that was later reflashed and coated. The home also features new kitchen flooring, along with a new bathroom floor and vanity completed in June 2026. Conveniently located in a highly walkable South Philadelphia location, this home is close to local shops, cafes, restaurants, and everyday amenities. A brand-new Trader Joe's is also planned just about a 10-minute walk from your front door. With quick and convenient access to I-95, commuting throughout the city and surrounding areas is simple. Don't miss the opportunity to make 1235 S. 3rd Street your next home.
