Property Description

Welcome to 1011 Watkins Street, tucked on one of South Philly’s most charming little blocks -- quiet, tree-lined, and just a short stroll from all the action of Passyunk Square. It’s that sweet spot between city buzz and tucked-away tranquility, where you can live your best urban life and still have your own private retreat. From the curb, it’s love at first sight. A sleek brick facade with overflowing flower boxes that say, “come on in”. Step inside and the vibe continues: sun-drenched open spaces, smart design choices, and a perfect blend of modern updates and vintage soul. The light-filled living room sets the tone: bright, open, and effortlessly cool. The living and dining areas flow together with hardwood floors, exposed brick, and recessed lighting, ready to host your next dinner party, game night, or cozy Netflix binge session. The kitchen brings it all home with modern walnut wood cabinetry, nickel hardware, quartz countertops, and that always-right marble subway tile backsplash. Graphite appliances keep things fresh, and a back door leads to your private fenced yard perfect for grilling, dining al fresco, or for throwing an Eagles watch party before stumbling out to Broad Street (yes, we said it). No need to send guests upstairs, there's a convenient first-floor powder room. Head up to find two sunny bedrooms, both with exposed brick detailing and the primary with a walk-in closet to rival a boutique, plus a hall bath with a tub made for bubble-soaking after a long week. Downstairs, the basement offers laundry, storage, and space to dream: home gym, studio, workspace, whatever fits your world. Now, let’s talk location. You’re steps from East Passyunk Avenue, one of the best foodie streets in America, according to Food & Wine. Think cozy BYOBs, funky boutiques, stylish salons, art galleries, vintage shops, and more restaurants than your group chat can handle. Car? Who needs one when the Broad Street Line is just a few blocks away? Vintage vibes with modern updates in a neighborhood that’s equal parts old soul and new energy? Congrats, you just found the one.
