Property Description
Welcome to this 3-bedroom, 1-bath historic townhome in Northern Liberties, where original architectural details meet thoughtful modern updates in one of Philadelphia's most established neighborhoods. The main level preserves the character that defines the area, featuring original red pine floors, hidden shelving, and built-in storage crafted by early carpenters. The fully reconstructed eat-in galley kitchen includes granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, craft-style cabinetry, and an open breakfast bar overlooking the dining space. Direct access from the kitchen leads to a European-style tiled backyard, creating a private outdoor area ideal for dining or entertaining. On the second level, the south-facing primary bedroom offers bamboo flooring, built-in closet storage, and consistent natural light throughout the day. The full bathroom on this level features distinctive green tile flooring, a shower/tub combination, under-sink storage, and a mirrored medicine cabinet. Also on this floor is a flexible den/office space with an authentic kiva fireplace and direct access to a rear deck, adding a second outdoor living option. The third level includes an additional spacious bedroom with two windows and top-floor privacy. A washer and dryer are located in the basement, which also provides additional storage space. Located just steps from the North 2nd Street corridor, close to neighborhood favorites including One Shot Coffee, and surrounded by restaurants, cafés, and retail along 2nd Street, Girard Avenue, and Frankford Avenue. Within walking distance to Liberties Walk, The Piazza, and Penn Treaty Park, with convenient access to the Market-Frankford Line, bus routes, I-95, and I-676 for commuting to Center City, Old City, Fishtown, and University City, while still situated on a low-traffic residential block. Original character, outdoor space, and a prime Northern Liberties location, all in one address.
