Property Description

Welcome to 1561 E. Montgomery Ave, a beautifully maintained gem in the heart of Fishtown, one of Philadelphia's most vibrant neighborhoods.
Step inside through the charming vestibule, where original ceramic tile floors and walls immediately set the tone with timeless character. From there, enter the spacious living room with expansive 9.5' high ceilings, anchored by a striking hardwood staircase with exquisite millwork. The living space is warm and inviting, featuring beautifully preserved original hardwood floors that flow seamlessly into the dining room.
Continue into the dining area, perfect for everyday living and entertaining, complete with a convenient half bath tucked off to the side. The dining space opens into an expansive, light-filled kitchen, a true standout of the home. A skylight floods the room with natural light, highlighting the modern cabinetry, gas range, and a vintage-inspired stainless steel sink with built-in drying rack that blends charm with functionality.
Slide open the rear door to discover a private backyard oasis, thoughtfully hardscaped and planted with lush perennials, creating the perfect setting for relaxing, gardening, or hosting guests.
On the second floor, you'll find a spacious and updated full bathroom featuring a double vanity, heated ceramic tile flooring, a 32” wide soak tub & shower combo, and abundant natural light from two windows. This level also offers two bedrooms: a generously sized front bedroom currently used as the primary, and one versatile enough to be a guest room, office, or nursery. The front bedroom is rich in character, showcasing a stunning original built-in armoire with intricate millwork and original mirrors. The original hardwood floors continue throughout both bedrooms on the second floor.
The third floor provides two additional bedrooms with a similar layout. The front bedroom features another beautiful original built-in armoire, and the rear bedroom has a brand new skylight, washing the room in natural light. Both bedrooms have painted hardwood floors, adding a bright and updated feel.
The home also features a spacious basement that has been recently parged, offering a clean and dry environment with ceiling height tall enough to stand comfortably. It also houses the washer and dryer, adding everyday convenience along with excellent storage potential.
Ideally located just steps from some of Fishtown's best restaurants, cafes, and local favorites, you'll enjoy easy access to neighborhood staples along Frankford Avenue and Girard Avenue. Commuting is a breeze with nearby access to the Market-Frankford Line, multiple bus routes, and convenient connections to Center City and I-95. Schedule your tour today!
