The vibrancy of Philly's Passyunk Square neighborhood is the perfect match for the one-of-a-kind property at 1226 S 8th St. A storied past, including uses as a social club and a speakeasy dating back to prohibition, has led to its current life as a live/work building, offering flexible spaces, an expansive bedroom suite, a full kitchen, and a private patio. The main level has a massive open space that takes full advantage of the extra-wide 20'+ lot and soaring 12' ceilings. There's a bar, soundproofing, and a separate control room for audio/visual work. This space would be ideal for large gatherings, rehearsals, fitness classes, divided work areas, or a traditional living room and dining area. At the rear, a half bathroom and a storage room flank a full kitchen with a restaurant-style 6-burner Vulcan range, Salamander broiler, and commercial exhaust. Out back, the enclosed trex patio acts as a serene garden oasis where you can escape the city's hustle, ideal for hosting barbecues and al fresco dining. Upstairs, the huge primary suite has tons of space for bedroom furniture, a desk, and a sitting room, along with a walk-in closet and full bathroom. At the opposite end is a sunlit open area with an office nook, the laundry, and a room currently used as a massage studio with its own half bathroom. Completing the property is a huge basement with 8' ceilings, another bar and lounge space, storage, and a half bathroom. Additional highlights include mini-split a/c's on each floor, a new roof installed in 2021 and white-coated in 2024, and a new Buderus furnace installed in 2022. 1226 S 8th St's fantastic location earns a Walk Score of 96 and Bike Score of 81! Steps away, lively E Passyunk Ave is lined with top-rated restaurants and friendly local shops. The famed 9th St Italian Market is nearby, plus parks & playgrounds, including Gold Star, Capitolo, Sacks, and Jefferson Sq are close. There's also easy access to public transit, Washington Ave, I-95, and South Jersey. Schedule your tour today!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
