Property Description

Located in the highly sought-after Meredith School Catchment with a private attached garage with covered off-street parking! This beautifully renovated Contemporary/Mid-Century-Modern home built in 1965 sits on a very desirable block in the always-in-demand Queen Village neighborhood—where homes like this rarely come to market. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and an attached 1-car garage, a large private fenced backyard, and a front walkout roof deck, this property offers a rare combination of style, comfort, and lots of outdoor space. The home boasts a stunning private rear yard oasis—professionally landscaped and hardscaped by Liberty Tree & Landscape Management—with flowering beds, mature Magnolia, River Birch, and Weeping Japanese Maple trees. The outdoor space is enhanced by Bluestone and Old World Brick patios, walkways, fieldstone garden walls capped with Bluestone for additional seating, and elegant landscape lighting. This expansive yard also includes an additional connected lot (Tax ID 022029810), creating a truly rare outdoor retreat in the city. Inside, the layout is open and bright, with a front walkout roof deck, a cozy gas fireplace with a stone surround and hearth, and a first-floor laundry room. The home is filled with thoughtful updates, including a cook's kitchen with Oakmoss solid wood cabinetry, Brushed Brass hardware and fixtures, stone countertops, stainless steel backsplash and appliances (5-burner gas range/convection oven, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, disposal), double-bowl sink, and LVP flooring. The first full bathroom features a walk-in shower with glass door, Rainhead, stone countertops, floor and wall tile, Brushed Brass fixtures, recessed lighting, and a stylish vanity. The second full bathroom offers a combination bathtub and shower with Rainhead, dual sinks, skylight, Brushed Brass fixtures, ceramic and stone tile, and custom lighting. Additional upgrades and features include Low-E casement and double-hung windows, sliding glass doors to the yard, roof, electric, Carrier gas furnace and central air HVAC systems, and an AO Smith gas hot water heater. The entire interior and exterior were just professionally painted. Original hardwood floors, stairs, and railings have just been professionally refinished, and all exposed brick walls have been restored and painted white. Other highlights include an office/workstation area, LED recessed lighting throughout, Matte Black exterior lighting and modern ceiling fans, custom closet organization, restored double wood front doors with slate foyer flooring, an insulated garage with automatic opener and shelving, wrought iron front door gates, a front door smart lock, hardwired fire, smoke, and security systems, updated masonry, and brick pointing. The home is filled with natural light, generous storage, and abundant space to spread out both indoors and out. Enjoy walkability to top-rated schools, restaurants, coffee shops, cafes, boutiques, parks, hospitals, and universities. This is truly a rare opportunity—a “needle in a haystack” in Queen Village and the City of Philadelphia. With easy access to Center City, Delaware Avenue, I-95, I-676, I-76, major bridges, stadiums, 30th Street Station, and Philadelphia International Airport, convenience is unmatched. With the Philadelphia Homestead Exemption, estimated 2025 property taxes are just $10,864. All Showings begin at the Grand Opening Public Open House on Saturday, September 27 from 12 noon to 2 pm EST.
