LINDA MCKINNON

Description

Welcome to 439 E Wildey Street, a unique 2,873 square-foot carriage home tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Fishtown, Philadelphia’s most vibrant and evolving neighborhood. Just a short trolley ride to Fairmount and the Philadelphia Zoo, and within walking distance to Penn Treaty Park, the Battery, playgrounds, top-notch coffee shops, vintage boutiques, and the ever-popular Frankford Avenue corridor, this home offers the perfect balance of neighborhood charm and urban convenience. With exciting new developments on the horizon, including a brand-new Sprouts grocery store opening on Delaware Avenue in 2025, this location continues to grow in both appeal and value. Unlike the typical narrow row houses of Philadelphia, this spacious two-story residence offers a wider and deeper footprint, giving you more living space on each floor and reducing the need for constant stair climbing. Enjoy the convenience of a PRIVATE, GATED PARKING lot complete with an electric car charger, as well as a sizable under-home storage unit featuring electrical outlets and multiple access points — perfect for seamless organization and added functionality. Framed by mature trees, the backlot is especially picturesque in the spring and summer, bringing a peaceful touch of nature to your daily routine. Inside, thoughtful upgrades enhance everyday comfort and convenience. A whole-home water filtration system delivers clean, filtered water to every faucet, shower, and appliance. On the second floor, a well-appointed wet bar featuring a sink, under-counter fridge, and water line serves as an ideal space for entertaining or crafting your dream coffee nook. Electric fireplaces in both the den and the primary suite add cozy ambiance and supplemental heat, while electric shades on every window and blackout curtains in each second-floor bedroom provide privacy with the touch of a button. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a custom-built closet, dedicated vanity area, and a fog-free illuminated mirror for a luxurious finishing touch. Cap it all off with a full-length rooftop deck boasting panoramic views of the Philadelphia skyline and nearby Delaware river. Whether you’re entertaining, relaxing, or just enjoying the seasons, 439 E Wildey Street offers a rare and refined lifestyle in one of the city’s most dynamic neighborhoods. Property is only 3 years old. Please verify with the City how many years are left on abatement, but this is a full TAX ABATEMENT, not the step down tax abatement.
