Property Description

Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of Queen Village- within the Meredith School Catchment, this c.1842 home feels like it was plucked from the pages of a storybook. With its original brick façade, black shutters, historic plaques, and marble steps, the curb appeal alone hints at the magic inside. A recently redone brick walkway leads to the front door, framed by charming window boxes, and sets the tone for the warmth and elegance that await within.
Step inside to find a wide and inviting living room, where original wide-plank pine floors stretch across the space and a gas fireplace with a marble surround creates an elegant focal point. Built-in shelving adds character and function, while natural light dances through the windows. Down the hall, past the open staircase, you'll find a beautifully reimagined kitchen and dining area that blends historic charm with modern comfort.
The kitchen has been fully renovated with timeless maple shaker cabinetry, warm butcher block countertops, and a ceramic tile backsplash- all illuminated by a large central skylight. New, high-end appliances and thoughtful design make the space as functional as it is beautiful. Just beyond, the spacious dining room features exposed beams, a brick fireplace with period woodwork, and access to a powder room tucked behind an original door. Step outside to a serene brick patio with new fencing- your private escape from city life.
Upstairs, the second floor offers a large primary bedroom with custom closet solutions and a fireplace flanked by twin closets. On this level you will also find a spacious full bath, which boasts a luxurious glass-enclosed shower with custom tilework, elegant brass finishes, and a serene soaking tub.
The third floor features two additional bedrooms, each flooded with natural light, plus new custom built-ins that maximize storage while maintaining the home's classic feel.
The basement houses a new washer and dryer and provides ample space for storage. Additional upgrades include a new roof (January 2025), new HVAC system, and a completely replaced lateral line to the street.
This is a rare opportunity to steward a piece of Philadelphia history, nestled on one of Queen Village's most beloved blocks. Beck Street offers fairytale-like charm- complete with beautifully preserved architecture and a welcoming community known for its festive block parties. Convenient to the neighborhood's favorite restaurants, shops, parks, and community events.
