1249 Pierce St, Philadelphia, PA 19148

Situated ideally off Passyunk Avenue within the Jackson catchment, this spacious corner rowhome packs so much character and charm into every nook. Head into your home (maybe with a fresh pie in hand from any of the nearby renown pizzerias) and be welcomed by your functional vestibule. Drop your keys and jacket and admire the classic black and white tile. Inside, you will appreciate the discerning blend between old and new -- original heart of pine floors, highlighted by tall ceilings and updated recessed lighting. The custom shades outfitting the front window are perfect for city living, offering plenty of sunlight as well as privacy. Moving toward the kitchen and you will notice not one, but two unique gems when it comes to South Philly real estate -- a powder room and a deep coat closet! The kitchen is a vintage dream come to reality, boasting checkered floors, a generous flow and abundant storage. Beyond the kitchen you will find yet another surprise: a garage! While not large enough for a standard-sized vehicle, this utilitarian space begs for creativity and delivers versatility. An art studio, home gym, and indoor/outdoor entertaining space (rain? no problem!), or just simply the best place to store bicycles, strollers, your Vespa, and SO much more. Head to the second floor (pausing to take in the gorgeous stained glass window in the stairwell) which features two large bedrooms, as well as a third bedroom that is currently set up as a closet, but could be your work from home office or nursery. The back bedroom features a new, walk-out Trex composite deck with no expense spared! Perched above the street, here you will enjoy a pop of the city skyline, the cool breeze, and a peaceful retreat thanks to the custom privacy railings. Open the secret hatch and you will find where rain water collects, tying directly into the water main for prime eco-efficiency. The full hall bath is so cute, you'll never want to renovate! Other perks of this home include a new roof with 12 year warranty, newer hot water heater (2018), newer windows throughout, a full basement with terrific height for storage, and of course, the optimal location. Access Center City in just minutes via the Broad Street Line, and you are a quick commute to all major roadways, as well as South Jersey. Adorn your house with plants from Urban Jungle, and have the best sandwich of your life at Black and Brew, and let the pets or kids romp around at Columbus Square Park. Enjoy Happy Hour at Barcelona, or a morning coffee from Rival Bros. You truly have every amenity possible at your fingertips. 1249 Pierce has been loved for years and is ready to welcome its next owners!
