Property Description
Welcome to your new home. 1239 S Newkirk St, is a beautifully updated home in the convenient Grays Ferry Neighborhood. Step onto a peaceful and neighborly block thats clean and quiet. Start your mornings with the sunlight pouring into the modern updated kitchen through east-facing windows, reflecting off the counters and floors at the start of the day and lighting up the back bedroom in the early afternoon. At the end of the day enjoy an evening drink on the bench out-front or enjoy the warm glow of the west-facing windows in the primary bedroom and living room complete with fireplace for that warmth and coziness in the winter months. Head upstairs for two spacious bedrooms and updated hall bathroom. This home has been beautifully maintained with updated Pex Plumbing system, was full repainted in Spring of 2025. HVAC system was replaced in August 2025, dryer replaced in April 2026. Enjoy all this home and neighborhood have to offer with a community garden just a few blocks away, easy street parking for you and your guests; convenient access to the new extension of the Schuylkill River Trail, West Philly and highway 76 access. But perhaps the most convenient part about the location is the Fresh Grocer across the street in a shopping plaza that also houses a post office, McDonalds, liquor store, and bank. For those eager to get into Center City, buses that pick-up just steps away from the house with a quick trip into Center City or West Philly (via 12 bus route), and across South Philly (via 64 bus route).
