Property Description

Welcome to 538 Moore Street- a beautifully renovated and maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled in the heart of South Philadelphia's sought-after Dickinson Narrows neighborhood. This spacious home boasts a classic original brick facade with elegant arched brick detailing and original cornice, offering timeless curb appeal on a quiet, tree-lined block. But one of the best things about this block is that the lots are extremely long- so this home provides plenty of living space PLUS a giant back yard! Step inside to find a spacious open layout, with a large living room, a central kitchen and powder room, and a rear dining area that lets out onto one of the largest private yards in the neighborhood- ready to be transformed into your city oasis for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors. Upstairs, at the front of the house you'll find the primary bedroom with spacious en suite bathroom, along with two additional bedrooms and another full hallway bathroom. Located just steps from neighborhood favorites like Dickinson Square Park (with its Sunday farmers market, events and movie nights), the Bok Building, and an array of cafes and shops along Passyunk Avenue, this home combines space and charm with an unbeatable location. Don't miss your opportunity to own a unique piece of South Philadelphia with room to grow, both inside and out.
