About This Home

As of April 2023

Charming, Walkable & Affordable! Welcome home to 1242 Fitzgerald Street, located on a quiet block in the Lower Moyamensing neighborhood of South Philly. Enter through the energy efficient air lock into the open concept living space. The hardwood floors on the first and 2nd floors have been updated and offer a lovely warm feeling throughout. The high ceilings make the space feel very open, and there are large windows offer plenty of natural light with both northern and southern exposures. The kitchen has updated cabinets and stainless steel appliances with lots of storage and space for a breakfast table. Out back, the spacious patio has room to grill, relax and dine al fresco with your potted herb garden. Downstairs the basement is semi- finished with laundry and flex space for an artist studio, playroom, workout space etc. The separate back storage area has been waterproofed and has a sump pump and a brand-new sewer line stack. Up on the 2nd floor you’ll find 3 bedrooms, with the front bedroom being the largest including a reach-in closet. The bedrooms and hallway have the same brand-new hardwood flooring as downstairs for a clean, modern look. The 3-piece bathroom is charming in blue and white, just waiting for your special touches. With a walk score of 96, this home offers supremely easy city living. Walk to neighborhood favorites like Los Gallos, Scaniccio’s, and Frangelli’s Bakery. Just a quick walk up 13th Street to all the fun shops, bars, restaurants and festivals on East Passyunk Avenue. Marconi Park is nearby with open green space and lots of recreation options including playgrounds, plus dodgeball and bocce leagues. Sports fans rejoice! The stadiums are 1 subway stop away or 20 minutes by foot. Less than 15 minutes takes you straight to the airport, and public transportation is easily accessible as well. Private in person tours and virtual tours available, don’t miss this gem!
