Description
Here’s a South Philly classic — high ceilings, defined rooms, and just the right mix of original charm and practical updates. This lovely layout actually gives you separate rooms to live in — not one big, echoey box. Step through the vestibule, featuring natural slate and a frosted-glass, mid-century-style door, into a proper living room with crown molding and a playful pink mantel. The dining room has space for that amazing table you’ve been holding onto — the one too big for your last place but too beautiful to part with. The eat-in kitchen offers plenty of cabinets and a spot that practically begs for a counter-height, pub-style table. There’s even a laundry area and a full bath on the first floor, plus a sweet little rear patio with blooming lilacs and raised garden beds where you can flex your green thumb. Upstairs: brand-new carpet, high ceilings, and three roomy bedrooms — the front one features two big windows and three closets. The basement is unfinished but dry, with 75 inch ceiling height and lots of potential for storage, a home gym, or your next DIY project. Out front, a crimson-leafed maple shades the handsome Victorian-inspired cornice, rosettes, and detailed stone lintels — a standout on the block. Location-wise, you’re just a 6-minute walk to the Broad Street Line at Ellsworth-Federal and 10 minutes to Lincoln Square’s Target, Sprouts, and Giant. You’re also close to Columbus Square Park (dog park included!) and the East Passyunk dining scene — perfect for a casual passeggiata (IYKYK). This one feels like home the moment you walk in.

Climate and Weather
The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
