    Welcome to 1520 S Stillman Street—a home where timeless Philadelphia character meets the confidence and comfort of a complete 2026 renovation. More than just cosmetically updated, this property was gutted down to the studs and meticulously rebuilt with permits, delivering the peace of mind and efficiency today's buyers are looking for.

An exposed brick accent wall leads upstairs to two spacious bedrooms and a beautifully appointed full bathroom featuring elegant Spanish tile, modern fixtures, and natural light. The finished basement offers exceptional flexibility and can easily serve as a family room, home office, fitness area, playroom, or even a potential third bedroom, while still providing valuable storage space. Additional exterior upgrades, including brand-new metal railings and rear siding, enhance the home's curb appeal and durability. Perfectly positioned on a quiet Grays Ferry block experiencing continued revitalization, you'll enjoy quick access to Center City, University City, CHOP, Penn, Drexel, the Sports Complex, I-76, public transportation, neighborhood restaurants, and local parks.
