Property Description
Welcome to 809 Earp Street, a classic South Philadelphia rowhome sitting in one of the most walkable and beloved neighborhoods in the city - Passyunk Square. This home has the kind of charm and layout that people love about older South Philly houses, and it's ready for someone with vision to bring it to life. The property does need some work and is being sold as-is, making it a great option for buyers who want to create something special in an unbeatable location. Inside, you'll find a traditional layout with a comfortable flow from the living area into the kitchen. The home still carries original touches you don't see often anymore, giving you the opportunity to refresh it while keeping that warm South Philly character. The kitchen offers plenty of space to reimagine - whether you want a simple refresh or a full renovation. Upstairs, you'll find well-sized bedrooms with good natural light and a layout that works for a variety of lifestyles, from a small family to someone wanting extra space for a home office or guests. One of the nicest features is the private back patio. The existing greenery already brings color and charm to the space. Add a small table, some string lights, or a few planters, and it instantly becomes a relaxing outdoor retreat - perfect for morning coffee, evening meals, or unwinding after a long day. LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! Location is everything, and this home delivers. Living in Passyunk Square means you're steps away from some of Philadelphia's best restaurants, cafés, bakeries, and local shops. East Passyunk Avenue and the historic Italian Market are both just a short walk away - giving you endless dining options, fresh produce, and boutiques right at your fingertips. The neighborhood is known for its friendly community feel, walkability, and daily convenience. Public transit is close by, and getting to Center City, major highways, or the waterfront is quick and easy. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer looking for a place with potential, an investor seeking a solid location, or someone who wants a project in a vibrant neighborhood - this home fits the bill. Homes in this part of South Philly don't come available often - especially ones that offer this much potential at such an approachable price point. With some thoughtful updates and personal touches, 809 Earp Street can become a warm, welcoming home in a location you'll enjoy for years to come. Sold as-is. Bring your ideas, your creativity, and your vision - this home is ready for its next chapter.
