Listing description

Bright, airy, and move-in ready, 1248 N Myrtlewood Street is a renovated gem tucked on a quiet, low-traffic block in Brewerytown. This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home features a large private patio, a modern kitchen, central A/C and very low taxes. Behind the classic red brick facade, the main level opens to a sunlit living room with luxury flooring and a decorative fireplace mantel. The dedicated dining room provides plenty of space for everyday meals and holiday gatherings. At the rear, the sleek kitchen boasts white shaker cabinetry, gleaming natural stone counters, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, and a distinctive tile backsplash. Out back, the expansive rear patio is the perfect spot for grilling, gardening, and al fresco meals. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms receive plenty of natural light and feature original wood floors, along with a full bathroom finished with white subway tile and built-in shelving. Completing the property is a large basement where you’ll find the laundry and valuable storage. Beyond the home, Brewerytown puts an ever-growing mix of restaurants, cafés, shops, markets, and everyday conveniences close at hand. Girard Ave is lined with friendly local businesses, while Aldi and a nearby community co-op with a kids’ space and gym add to the neighborhood’s appeal. The Philadelphia Zoo, Kelly Drive, and sprawling Fairmount Park are within easy reach, along with public transit and convenient access to I-76. Schedule your tour today.
