Description

Welcome to 2102 East Dauphin Street located in the heart of the much-loved Fishtown section of Philadelphia! The name Fishtown derives from one of the original occupations of its residents. Early settlers were fishermen, and over time they controlled the fishing rights to both sides of the Delaware River, from Cape May to the falls at Trenton. The Market–Frankford Line rapid transit subway/elevated line of the SEPTA system is only 2 blocks away! Not looking for a sterile, cold, contemporary reno? Then 2102 E. Dauphin Street is meant for you! Adorned and lovingly maintained by the same owner since 2010, our property showcases a bit of history with an artistic, modern flare. MAJOR UPGRADES: 5/2025 Brand New Gas Heating & AC System - the entire system was just replaced. 4/2025 New Capping on all Windows and 2 Window replacements, 4/2025 New Drywall throughout including ceilings between exposed beams, 4/2025 Whole House Repainted Art Gallery White, 2020 Main Level Full Bathroom Remodel - custom tile work floor & walls, soaker tub, blown glass pendent and modern lighting, 2020 Full Kitchen Remodel with custom tile backsplash & accent wall, stainless steel appliances, highly efficient wood stove (this stove can heat the entire home if desired and is a great way to supplement utility costs), 2018 Upper Level Full Bathroom Remodel with custom tile work on floor & walls, blown glass pendent and modern lighting, oversized walk-in shower, 2010 New Electric Panel & Whole House Wiring, 2010 All New Windows and Doors. With $800K homes within a block, this 3 full story townhome with basement, patio and roof deck is priced well! As you walk through your attractive dark blue front door with working transom window, you already begin to get the sense you're not in just another generic reno nor space needing a lot of work. Each of the 3 levels are balanced with the same colors, textures and attention to detail creating a well composed living environment. From the original hardwood flooring, to the sweeping exposed brick walls and exposed wood beams, the integrity of this Fishtown classic has not been erased but featured! The playful yet classy decorative ceramic title work throughout the home can be found covering accent walls, as circular inlays in the wood flooring and as accents in the custom-tinted stucco adorning the patio and deck spaces. Both level 1 & 2 have high ceilings with the 3rd level boasting a 12' ceiling height. Venture upstairs or carry on into the huge eat-in, gourmet kitchen space. Set a table and chairs and prepare meals for family and friends like you're a celebrity chef (or maybe you are?) Look-through openings allow clear sight lines from the kitchen to the living room and to the back room. Use the back-room space how ever you see fit; as a dining room, 4th bedroom with en suite, a home office, play room or flex space. The room has access to the custom full bathroom (a rare find on a main level) and to your good-sized patio (15 x 23). Right away you notice the 2 mature Hardy Fig Trees, and yes, you can eat the figs right off the tree. Add your own seating and personal touches to finish off this fruitful, fun, private outdoor space. The dry, unfinished lower level shows off your Brand-New Gas Heating & AC System 2025, hot water heater 2014, Electrical Panel 2010, Included newer washer and dryer and potential storage/workshop/gym space. The Upper Level provides 2 living spaces. Add your own aesthetic of doors for more privacy. Shoji screens would look great. Discover another beautiful Full Bathroom with walk-in shower, and venture through the standard-sized door to your roof deck landing 12 x 16. This is where the owner liked to pick figs and enjoy the open sky views. The 3rd level was used as a grand primary bedroom. With many windows and 2 levels of custom built-in light-wells, the home is truly bathed in natural sunlight. OFFER DEADLINE FRIDAY 5/23, 5PM.
