About 1231 N Leithgow St

Welcome to the quintessential charm of Philadelphia living in this meticulously restored and upgraded trinity-style home. Nestled between the dynamic neighborhoods of Fishtown, Olde Kensington and Northern Liberties, this stylish abode is situated on the tranquil, one-way block of N. Leithgow St., offering a perfect blend of urban convenience and residential tranquility. Step through the entrance into a warm and inviting ground floor living space, adorned with reclaimed hardwood floors, track lighting, and exposed brick walls. Currently used as a versatile space for work, dining, and entry, this room could easily transition into a cozy living room or formal dining area. Continue into the eat-in kitchen, where aesthetics meet functionality with concrete tiles, open shelving, subway tile backsplash, and an infusion of vibrant colors and natural light. Up to the second floor, revealing two generous bedrooms with ample room for beds and storage—a rarity in compact Philly homes. In the front bedroom, aesthetic restoration takes center stage, featuring exposed brick and plaster, complemented by gorgeous reclaimed hardwood floors. The bathroom seamlessly blends the original clawfoot tub with contemporary concrete tiles, striking a nice balance between vintage charm and modern chic. A tucked-away bedroom at the rear of the home works well as a secluded and serene primary bedroom. Ascend to the final bedroom or flex space, accessible by a stair/ladder. With a vaulted ceiling and windows on both east and west sides, the room exudes an airy vibe, and offers great versatility of use. And certainly worthy of our attention is this fantastic, nearly 250 sq ft of back patio space, adorned with a fledgling magnolia tree and two wisteria vines. The home has been converted to electric systems throughout , ensuring both safety and economy. New mini split units, sometimes called ductless, provide efficient heating and cooling, offering even coverage, near-silent operation, and cost-effective climate control. Let’s talk location…This home finds itself within walking distance of countless Fishtown, Ludlow, Olde Kensington and Northern Liberties amenities such as: La Colombe, ACME, Laser Wolf, Taco Riendo, Lost Bread, Punch Buggy Brewing, and the list goes on. Accessible is ideal, with easy I 95 access, and public transportation (trolley, bus, and subway) all within a few blocks. Affordability, move-in readiness, and style converge in this residence, making it an ideal choice for first-time homebuyers, savvy investors, or those seeking an urban pied-à-terre.
