Welcome to 1917 S. 17th St, A RARE and charming 4 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street just south of Mifflin St. This beautifully maintained, classic Philadelphia rowhome offers the perfect balance of historic character and modern convenience at a price that’s hard to beat in Point Breeze. Step inside and be welcomed by over 1,400 square feet of sun-drenched living space with an inviting layout that makes this home feel both spacious yet cozy. Inside the vestibule, you'll notice an original and beautifully restored piece of South Philadelphia history—a real mid century modern Tofani door. The heart of the home features an updated kitchen with modern appliances—including a dishwasher, disposal, microwave, gas range, and refrigerator—flowing effortlessly into the dining area and living room, ideal for entertaining or cozy nights in. The first floor powder room offers additional convenience. A smartly designed Murphy bed and custom cabinet (included in sale) add flexibility and functionality, perfect for guests or multi-purpose living. Radiant gas heat keeps the home warm and efficient, while ceiling fans and window units provide year-round comfort. The back patio is a slice of heaven in our bustling City, where you can grill, host friends or simply enjoy the sunshine. The patio also features a custom Bilco basement door that’s great for storing large items in the basement. Upstairs you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms, each with a closet and an abundance of sunlight. The front two bedrooms have a connecting door which is great for a nursery or home office. The full bathroom offers a soaking tub and updated vanity. Located in one of Philly’s fastest-growing and most vibrant neighborhoods—home to the South Philly Taproom, Hardena Indonesian, Second District Brewing, Little Susie’s Coffee & Pie, and Rowhouse Grocery to name a few that are all within a 1-2 block radius—and minutes from bustling East Passyunk Ave to the east, Center City to the north, and Home Depot, Shop Rite, Aldi and Sprouts to the south. Does it get any better???
