About 1241 S Alder St
Property Status: Active Available immediately in Passyunk Square! Charm + updates + great layout = this adorable rowhome, which is located on one of the cutest side streets in South Philly. Enter through the cool vintage door into the airy open layout, where living and dining areas blend seamlessly, giving plenty of options for furnishing. The freshly updated kitchen features beautiful new stainless appliances, including built in microwave, dishwasher, gas cooking and refrigerator. Tons of cabinetry and gorgeous new countertops complete the kitchen, and there's still plenty of room for a dining set, kitchen island, or additional storage for the enterprising home chef. Upstairs, the unique layout features a huge landing which would be a wonderful library or workspace. The sun streams in from the skylights across the wooden ceiling beams in this lovely sanctuary - and it gives tons of breathing room to the large bedrooms on either side. The large, front-facing bedroom has two huge closets and west-facing windows as well as original, rustic hardwood floors. The sizable rear bedroom also has generous closet space and lovely hardwood floors. The stairway in the landing gives easy access to a fenced roof deck - perfect for a bit of container gardening or lounging in the sun. The unfinished basement is dry and large and offers tons of storage as well as a washer and dryer. Radiator heat keeps this house warm in the winter, and window and wall units cool the home in the summer. A small back alley will conveniently store your trash and recycling bins. The location is unbeatable - this home is one block from the shops and restaurants of Passyunk Avenue, as well as nearby gems like Comfort & Floyd, Casablanca, Tiffin and the conveniences of Acme & CVS - and right around the corner from Capitolo Park and the south end of the world famous Italian Market. Tenants pay gas, electric, water and internet. Pets ok on a case by case basis. Office Phone: (267) 252-9204 Copyright © 2025 Bright MLS. All rights reserved.
