About This Home
As of July 2022Tucked away on a low traffic block in Philly's vibrant East Passyunk neighborhood, you'll find 1904 S Alder Street. A complete renovation in 2019 has transformed this 3 bed, 1.5 bath home into a modern showpiece offering a secluded back patio, a finished basement, and reduced taxes. The front of the home greets you with a classic brick facade. Inside, the main level is completely open with tons of natural light from tall windows at the front and back. Beautiful hardwood floors stretch from the spacious living room into the separate dining area. An island with seating for 2 centers the stunning all-white kitchen adorned with shaker-style cabinetry, LG stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, and a subway tile backsplash. The private patio out back, with its horizontal fencing and built-in planters, acts as a hidden oasis, perfect for barbecues, al-fresco dining, and gardening. The home's lower level has been finished with durable wood-look flooring, a half bathroom, and extra storage. This bonus space is ideal for a home theater, playroom, or fitness center. On the home's second level, there's a bright primary bedroom at the front with hardwood floors, excellent closet space, and a ceiling fan. Two more bright bedrooms and a full bathroom complete this level. In addition to all that's inside 1904 S Alder St, its fantastic East Passyunk location is a walker's paradise with a Walk Score of 96! It's sat between the award-winning restaurants and local shops on Passyunk Ave and the Bok Building — an old school turned community workplace hosting diverse small businesses, including a pre-school, a dog daycare, art galleries, non-profits, restaurants, and a rooftop lounge. Target, ACME, IKEA, and Lowes are a short ride away, plus there's easy access to public transportation, the Stadium District, I-76, I-95, and South Jersey.
