** Like to see 2344 S Bancroft at your convenience, maybe even on short notice? Email us from this listing. Or, especially for short-notice requests, please text or call. We'll try to accommodate your schedule. ** ** Available for leases starting October or as late as November. ** ** The house might be the most flexible, user-friendly space in South Philly. Built in the early 1900s as a classic Philly row house, the home's entire first floor was demo-ed many years ago to serve as a cold storage freezer for a neighboring deli. At the same time, the second floor was turned into a comfortable & modern one-bedroom apartment. Now, the first-floor freezer is removed and the entire house is for rent... still featuring it's unique, remodeled layout. If you want a 2-bedroom house, you can use the rear room on the first floor as a huge bedroom, combined with the 2nd-floor bedroom. As a two bedroom house, you'll have a huge living room (on the 1st floor) and ANOTHER comfortable living room/dining room space on the 2nd floor. Or, you can use one or both of the first floor rooms (i.e. 1/2 or the entire first floor) as a home office or work space. In this scenario, the first floor can be locked off and completely private from your 2nd-floor living space, if you prefer. Or not. It's your choice. Are you confused? Email or call us with questions and to schedule a showing. S. Bancroft Street @ Ritner Street West Ritner Corridor / Newbold South / St Monica's South Philadelphia, PA According to Philadelphia Inquirer food columnist Rick Nichols, South Philadelphia's Ritner Street is "the Italian market you don't hear about, a vibrant, workaday string of corner groceries. . . that make their own extremely decent gnocchi and low-moisture mozzarella".

The house was re-configured by the deli and now features a modern kitchen, eat-in kitchen, bathroom and bedroom on the second floor. The first floor includes a large front living room and huge rear bedroom; all flooring on the first floor is original re-finished pumpkin pine. Monthly Rent: $1325 Utilities: Gas, water & electric on your own bill. Initial Payment: 1st, Last & Security Pets: Cats and small dogs (no dangerous breeds) OK with pet addendum and deposit Lease Agreement: 1 year, then month-to-month with winter term. 2nd floor -- Entry/Living Room/Kitchen: Enter the front door of the house into a tiled vestibule.

At the front of the apartment overlooking Bancroft Street, there's an area (that can be used as a den, eat-in kitchen or 2nd living room) with Cherry hardwood laminate flooring.
