Welcome to 1042 N Leithgow Street—where modern design meets classic charm on a quiet, tucked-away block in the Northern Liberties. This fully renovated brick-front rowhome features 2 bedrooms, 1 beautifully updated bath, and thoughtful upgrades throughout, making it the perfect turn-key city retreat. Step inside through a charming vestibule and into an airy, open-concept first floor with high ceilings, stunning natural light, and luxury vinyl plank flooring that flows throughout the home. The custom kitchen is a showstopper—featuring white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an ideal layout with bar seating and ample storage, all seamlessly connected to the dining and living areas. Out back, enjoy your private patio—ideal for morning coffee, gardening, or weekend relaxation with family and friends. Bonus: the patio has its own street entrance, perfect for bike storage and easy trash access. Upstairs, the 2021-rebuilt staircase leads to two generously sized bedrooms and a spa-inspired full bath. Renovated in 2019, the bathroom features radiant heated tile floors, a double vanity with marble countertop, and designer finishes. Both bedrooms offer new windows and the middle bedroom boasts a walk-in closet. The basement houses laundry and provides tons of extra storage space. The property features a newer roof, new AC, new chimney liner, curb trap, and water line. Perfectly positioned in Northern Liberties with easy access to Fishtown and Olde Kensington, you're steps from local hotspots like Reanimator Coffee and Urban Village Brewing—not to mention countless restaurants, shops and public transit options. I-95 is just minutes away, making commuting a breeze.
