Secluded residential community with local rec centers and corner stores
Rows of townhomes and a strong community spirit define the suburb of Bridesburg. The community has long been a haven for working-class families. Many families have been here for generations and flourished thanks to the community's proximity and feeling of privacy from the hustle and bustle of Philadelphia. Sleepy urban streets lined with rowhouses are a short walk from after-school programs at the recreation center and the local corner store.

Well-maintained twin homes and new construction
Much of Bridesburg comprises typical urban street blocks, bordered by industrial zones, the I-95 and the Delaware River, which gives the community a feeling of privacy from the hustle and bustle of Philadelphia. Nine of every ten homes in the community are owner-occupied, with a handful of rental properties and new construction popping up in recent years. Three-story townhomes and brick rowhomes are available in a range of floorplans, all with no H.O.A. and ample street parking. Prices in Bridesburg have been steadily increasing, but the community has come together in recent years against rising prices. "Its pretty tight-knit up there, prices are steady but they've been coming up little by little," says Seth Govan, a local Realtor at HomeSmart Realty Group with over ten years of experience. Two-bedroom twin homes needing some T.L.C. can go for $150,000, while more updated townhomes or new construction costs $515,000 or more.
