About This Property

Nestled away on one of Passyunk Square's most idyllic side streets is this handsomely updated home that, with its 15-foot-wide footprint, high ceilings with recessed lighting and crown molding, and warm oak floors throughout, is bright and airy and feels more spacious than its square footage implies. And scrupulous attention to detail throughout-black porcelain and unlacquered brass doorknobs, a peaceful palette of tone-on-tone walls and trim, nicely curated light fixtures, custom window treatments, brass switchplate covers-puts this house in an entirely separate league from your typical rowhome. The first floor features a classic layout with a nicely proportioned living/dining room with France & Son bubble chandelier and a wide archway to the large kitchen featuring ample storage via solid wood cabinets; ceramic tile floors; granite countertops with undermount sink and gooseneck faucet under a fluted pendant light; stainless steel GE slide-in range; black stainless Samsung French door fridge and dishwasher; and a good-sized pantry closet. The rear patio is a city-dweller's dream, with charming pavers and built-in planters featuring mature low-maintenance landscaping like vining hydrangeas and evergreen sedum. Upstairs, the spacious rear guest bedroom overlooks this little pocket of Zen. The ceramic tiled hall bath has Kohler fixtures and an extra-deep in-shower window. The large primary bedroom with double-armoire storage overlooks the enchanting streetscape and has a newly built en suite with oversized hex tile floors; handmade ceramic tile walls that also surround the large walk-in shower with Kohler dual showerheads; custom built-in storage; towel warmer; and a marble vanity with brass mirror and sconces. The basement isn't finished but is downright pristine, offering a super-usable bonus living space and a large separate laundry/storage room with Blomberg frontloaders. This tree-lined tucked-away stretch of Gerritt St is the home of James Beard nominated Mighty Bread Bakery and is just around the corner from Columbus Square Park and both the Tasty and Reanimator coffee shops, and two blocks to Passyunk Ave.
