Located on one of the prettiest blocks in Newbold, just 3 1/2 blocks from Passyunk Avenue, this meticulously restored and updated circa 1890s home is a gem in South Philadelphia. Built between 1887 and 1995, the home features the original refinished floors and staircase, the original slate fireplace surround in the living room, and several original doors and trim work throughout the house. Reclaimed and restored architectural items are infused throughout the house including the double front doors and some of the lighting fixtures. As you approach the home you will recognize the original character of the facade and the quality Marvin windows that were installed in 2021. Entering through the front doors you will land in a lovely foyer featuring a tiled floor, multi-light interior door, and slate wainscotting. The foyer leads to an open living area anchored by the fireplace mantel, the elegant staircase, and the oak flooring with walnut bordering. Plentiful natural light enters the space through the west-facing windows. The living area connects to the kitchen/dining room through a wide archway, creating both spaciousness and separation. The dining area is large enough for gatherings of family and friends and is flanked by a coat closet and the entrance to the basement. The recently updated kitchen (2021) features a long peninsula with seating for four, white Shaker-style cabinets with brass hardware, quartz countertops, a beautifully tiled backsplash, and a range hood that exhausts to the outside. Beyond the kitchen is an addition featuring a pantry wall, a laundry area with countertop and storage cabinets, and a very well-placed and well-designed powder room. The rear door opens to a nice patio lined with permeable pavers and has room for grilling and lounging. The second floor features a wonderful primary bedroom room featuring an east-facing bay window, a wall of custom-built clothing cabinetry, an original corbeled arch, fine original moldings, and one of several restored radiators placed throughout the house. The adjacent full bath offers a beautifully tiled shower stall complete with a deep soaking tub. The sink has a side counter and cabinet offering plenty of storage for cosmetics and grooming products. The two additional bedrooms on the floor are of good size, with good storage, and each offers unique architectural and design elements. Behind all the beautiful features, the home was rewired with 200 amp service in 2021, and in the same year, a high-velocity air condition system was installed. Historic features with modern updates, this house has it all while being just a few blocks from South Philly favorites like the original Ultimo, 2nd District, The South Philly Tap Room, Hardena, Los Cuatro Soles, Gabriella's Vietnam and so much more. This is a house that you don't want to miss.

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.
