Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in the heart of Fishtown, offering a wonderful blend of comfort, outdoor space, and city living. One of the standout features is the rare opportunity to enjoy two separate fenced-in outdoor spaces—a welcoming front patio and a private rear patio, providing plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining, gardening, or enjoying a morning coffee. The comfortable first-floor layout features a living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating a functional space for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms and a full bath. The basement provides valuable additional storage space and includes a convenient laundry area. New windows were installed in 2020, along with a new storm door, adding to the home's comfort and efficiency. The water heater is new, and the main heating system was serviced in December 2025. Enjoy all that Fishtown has to offer, with an exciting mix of restaurants, cafés, shops, nightlife, and entertainment nearby. The vibrant Frankford Avenue corridor, Penn Treaty Park, The Fillmore, and the Delaware River waterfront are all part of the neighborhood's appeal, while convenient SEPTA access makes getting around the city easy. A great opportunity to own a home with two private outdoor spaces in one of Philadelphia's most vibrant neighborhoods. Mortgage savings may be available for buyers of this listing.
