Looking for the perfect place to call home in Passyunk Square? This classic brick-front rowhome combines timeless South Philly character with thoughtful updates. Inside, you’ll find exposed brick on all floors, ornamental columns, and original hardwood floors on the second and third floors—bringing warmth and authenticity throughout. Step through the vestibule into a spacious open-plan living and dining area with newer wood floors. The iconic columns subtly define the space while keeping the flow open. In the back, the bright and airy kitchen is made for gatherings, featuring a generous center island with built-in sink, warm butcher-block countertops, white cabinetry, and a brand-new refrigerator. From here, step outside into a surprisingly large backyard—perfect for summer BBQs or relaxing evenings under the stars. Upstairs, the second floor hosts a generously sized primary bedroom with a walk-in closet, and a full bath with clean subway tile and more room than you'd expect in a South Philly home. Surprise - a new deck is accessible just off the 2nd floor hallway! On the third floor, you'll find two additional bedrooms—ideal for kids, guests, or a home office setup. A dry, unfinished basement offers plenty of storage space and houses the laundry and mechanical systems. Situated in an ideal Passyunk Square location, 1148 S 12th Street puts you right in the heart of it all. Just half a block from Fanny Jackson Coppin Elementary and two blocks from Columbus Square Park (with its popular dog park), you're also steps from the Broad Street Line for an easy commute to Center City or the stadiums. The iconic 9th Street Italian Market is just four blocks away, as is Acme for everyday shopping. And when it's time to unwind, the vibrant dining and nightlife of East Passyunk Avenue are right at your fingertips. With unbeatable walkability and neighborhood charm, this is South Philly living at its best.
