A move-in ready home for under 270k within walking distance to some of the city’s most desirable restaurants? Welcome to 1837 E Albert Street! This lovely 2 bedroom, 1 bath home is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the best of both East Kensington and Fishtown. You’re greeted by a cute brick front, south-facing facade outside and modern finishes with an open concept inside. The airy center stair layout allows for the living and dining rooms to flow naturally together, while still maintaining 2 distinct spaces bathed in natural light from the large front window. The main floor also includes a convenient closet by the front door, a rarity in row homes! The updated kitchen is located in the back of the home and boasts stylish shaker cabinetry, a tile backsplash, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. This kitchen inspires regardless of if you’re entertaining indoors or out. Speaking of outdoors, off the kitchen you’ll find a private back patio with plenty of room to grill & chill, as well as tend to your garden or romp with the pup. The natural light continues upstairs with a skylight in the stairwell leading to 2 large bedrooms (both with closets and sizable windows) and a spacious full bath with updated tile and deep soaking tub. Downstairs the tidy basement offers decent height, an abundance of storage and a full size washer and dryer. Walk to the best of Fishtown and East Kensington, while also having easy access to public transit (Huntingdon Septa station is around the corner). Sample the pierogis at Little Walter’s (NYT 2024 Best Restaurants in America), Laotian specialties at Vientiane Bistro or incredible Mexican food at Cantina La Martina (James Beard Award finalist)- Philadelphia’s dining culture doesn’t get better than this and it’s all at your doorstep! Pack your bags and move right in to this cheery, low maintenance home in in the heart of it all.

Climate and Weather
The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
