About This Home
As of September 2023Situated on a quiet street in a stellar location, and tastefully renovated for a timeless look under the owners' watchful eyes, 1247 N Palethorp is ready for its new owners! The front of the property looks like a postcard; sitting between two trees with that classic and beautiful Philadelphia brick. Entering into the house, you'll be greeted by the brand new custom kitchen, equipped with all stainless steel appliances, island with room for stools, and crown molding for an elevated look. The spacious living room opens up to the private backyard patio through a sliding door, perfect for entertaining friends and family. To complete the first floor is the half bathroom tucked away underneath the staircase. The second floor front bedroom is absolutely massive and right across the hall from the full bathroom, which was renovated in early 2023. Down the hall is the second bedroom, currently used as an office. The third floor bedroom is extremely private and has so many potential uses as a home theatre, office, workout space, playroom, or of course, bedroom. The basement has plenty of storage space and is where the washer and dryer are located. Other upgrades are new flooring, baseboards, trim, doors, and added recessed lights. Now for the location! 1247 N Palethorp sits right on the border of three of Philadelphia's extremely popular neighborhoods: Olde Kensington, Fishtown, and Northern Liberties. You get the best of both worlds living on a calm and secluded street, but enjoy walking to endless coffee shops, eateries, breweries and events right out of your doorstep. Don't have a car? No problem. Acme and other essential stores are one block away. Want to get somewhere else in the City of Brotherly Love or beyond? You're less than two blocks from the Market Frankford Subway Line. Don't let this opportunity pass you by!
