Description

Tucked away on one of Olde Kensington’s quietest streets lies a home that redefines urban living. 1514 North Palethorp Street is a perfect fusion of elegance, convenience, and location, offering an extraordinary lifestyle in one of Philadelphia’s most desirable pockets. Situated in an area arguably better than the heart of Fishtown, this home enjoys a unique position—just two blocks from the center of Frankford Avenue and three blocks from prime Northern Liberties' 2nd Street. Here, you’ll find yourself at the nexus of everything you love about the city, while still enjoying the peace of a tucked-away street where neighbors easily find parking right in front of their homes. The façade is adorned with beautiful custom window planters and a railing planter that greets you with vibrant flowers, adding a charming and welcoming touch to the home. As you step through the front door, you’re welcomed into the dining area, which flows seamlessly into the well-appointed kitchen. With stainless steel appliances, sleek countertops, and a built-in breakfast bar, this kitchen is designed for both functionality and style. Beyond the kitchen lies the spacious living room, a light-filled retreat that opens through a large sliding glass door to the large private backyard. The backyard offers a slightly extended footprint, featuring a garden area perfect for growing herbs and vegetables. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet evening outdoors or hosting friends for a summer barbecue, this space offers endless possibilities for relaxation and entertainment. The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms, each bathed in natural light and thoughtfully designed to feel like a private retreat. The Jack-and-Jill bathroom uniquely connects the rooms, with a shared shower at its center while providing each bedroom with its own private sink and toilet. A spacious walk-through closet leads from each bedroom into its respective bathroom area, seamlessly blending privacy with convenience. The third floor is reserved entirely for the primary suite, a sanctuary of comfort and luxury. The spa-inspired ensuite bathroom boasts dual vanities, a deep soaking tub with jacuzzi jets, and a large walk-in shower, while the walk-in closet offers abundant storage for your curated wardrobe. The rooftop deck provides a private outdoor escape, ideal for unwinding or hosting intimate gatherings. With plenty of room to relax, this space is the perfect complement to city living. The finished basement provides a flexible space to fit your lifestyle—be it a home gym, media room, or guest suite, complete with its own full bathroom. This home has been crafted to suit every need and desire, combining luxury with thoughtful practicality. This 15-foot-wide home is a rare find in a location that’s truly unparalleled. Olde Kensington’s quiet streets, paired with its unbeatable proximity to Fishtown and Northern Liberties, make it one of Philadelphia’s best-kept secrets. Local favorites like City Fitness, award-winning Pizzeria Beddia and Laser Wolf, Liberty Kitchen, Middle Child Clubhouse, Stateside Vodka, Suraya, Gryphon Cafe, La Colombe, and Frankford Hall are all under a 10-minute walk away. Living here means being just steps from world-class dining, boutique shopping, and cultural hotspots—all while savoring the peaceful charm of this tucked-away gem.
