    What's special

    Garage spaceQuartz countertopsFinished basementFenced rear yardModern finishesShaker-style white cabinetryVersatile bonus space
    Nestled in the heart of Northern Liberties, 501 Brown Street offers a rare find in the city: private off-street parking for three vehicles featuring a private driveway for two and an additional garage space. This tastefully renovated home blends style, comfort, and functionality in one of Philadelphia’s most dynamic and desirable neighborhoods. Completely updated in 2018, the home features modern finishes throughout, including solid hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and a bright, open-concept main living level. The chef’s kitchen is a true highlight, outfitted with quartz countertops, a custom tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, vented hood, wine fridge, and shaker-style white cabinetry perfect for both cooking and entertaining. Just off the spacious living room, two large sliding glass doors lead to a composite deck, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow for grilling and gatherings. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Each bedroom includes ample closet space, ceiling fans, and continued hardwood flooring. The hall bath features floor-to-ceiling tile and sleek chrome fixtures, while the primary suite includes a spa-like en-suite with frameless glass shower and designer tilework. The finished basement adds versatile bonus space—ideal for a home office, gym, media room, or play area—and opens directly to a fenced rear yard, offering even more room to relax or entertain. Major system upgrades include all new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and windows when rehabbed in about 2018. A brand-new roof with a 10-year warranty was recently installed, and approximately three years remain on the property’s tax abatement. Living here means enjoying unbeatable walkability and just few blocks to the legendary Standard Tap and close to neighborhood favorites like Urban Village Brewing, Jerry’s Bar, Café La Maude, and Bardot. Daily conveniences like ACME, CVS, TARGET, and Amazon Fresh are all within reach, and the Market-Frankford Line puts Center City just minutes away. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready home with 3-car parking in one of Philly’s hottest neighborhoods!
