Welcome to this classic brick-front townhouse with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths in the heart of Passyunk Square that blends timeless Philadelphia character with modern design. Offering over 2,100 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space, this home features hardwood floors though out all main living spaces and a private rooftop deck boasting sweeping skyline views. The backyard is fully fenced with a clean concrete patio, ideal for grilling, entertaining, or relaxing outdoors.

Inside, the main level offers an open-concept floor plan with gleaming hardwood floors throughout the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The living room welcomes you with abundant natural light and room for a large sectional, while the dining area comfortably fits a full table. The chef’s kitchen is both stylish and practical, complete with espresso cabinetry, light granite countertops, a white subway tile backsplash with dark accents, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula with breakfast bar seating. The fully finished basement adds even more versatility, featuring plush carpeting, a powder room, and ample space for a media room, office, or gym.

Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms share a full bath with modern tile finishes, tub/shower combo, and single vanity. A dedicated laundry closet with a side by side washer/dryer is conveniently located on this level. The entire third floor is a luxurious primary suite with recessed lighting, a walk-in closet with built-ins, and a spa-like bathroom boasting double vanities, a soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed stall shower with rain shower head. From here, stairs lead to the crown jewel of the home—a spacious rooftop deck with multiple seating areas and breathtaking panoramic views of the city skyline and the Delaware River.

This prime location puts you steps from everything Passyunk Square has to offer—boutiques, coffee shops, and some of Philly’s most popular restaurants, including Marra’s, Barcelona, and Bing Bing Dim Sum. Stroll to the Italian Market, Pat's or Geno's Cheesesteaks, Sprouts, or Whole Foods, or enjoy nearby green spaces like Gold Star Park, Capitolo Playground, and Columbus Square Dog Park. With easy access to Broad Street, public transportation, I-95, I-76, and Center City, this home offers the perfect balance of neighborhood charm and city convenience.
