A 950-square-foot two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo in a small 2017-built building on a quiet block of South 12th Street, right where Hawthorne meets Bella Vista.
The unit is a genuine two-bedroom, two-bath layout not a converted one-bedroom with both bedrooms sized for a real bed plus furniture and each paired with its own full bathroom. That makes it work equally well for a couple wanting a guest room or home office, or for two people splitting the rent without sharing a shower.
The main living area has hardwood floors throughout and enough room to separate a seating area from a dining or desk zone. The kitchen has quartz countertops and full-size appliances, and there's a washer and dryer in the unit. Central air and gas forced-air heat keep the whole unit comfortable year-round, and being in a newer building means better insulation and lower utility bills than the century-old rowhouses that dominate this part of the city.
The location is the real draw. You're a five-minute walk from South Street's restaurants, bars, and Whole Foods; ten minutes from the Italian Market on 9th; and a couple of blocks from the Lombard-South stop on the Broad Street Line, which puts you at City Hall in one stop and the stadiums in ten. Hawthorne Park is around the corner. Jefferson and Pennsylvania Hospital are both an easy walk, as is the Avenue of the Arts. Center City is walkable in either direction.
Available November 1 with some flexibility on the exact start date.
