705 BELGRADE ST Philadelphia, PA 19125

You'll fall in love with this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully upgraded rowhouse that blends historic charm with solid, custom craftsmanship, right in the heart of Fishtown!

Curb appeal beckons you inside 705 Belgrade with window boxes, a brick facade, and a Sergent Cherry tree that has beautiful pink blossoms in the spring! Entering the space, you'll be wowed by the gleaming hardwood floors and open concept living area. The space includes a hand-built entertainment center and shelving unit, and offers ample room for dedicated dining area.

The fully renovated kitchen lies just beyond, and is truly the heart of the home. Custom-designed by Wellsford Cabinetry of Pottstown, it features rustic hickory solid wood cabinets, hand-laid cork floors, high-end appliances and a range hood. Keep heading back and you'll discover a pristine first floor full bath with shower. This offers incredible convenience for entertaining guests, accommodating folks with mobility challenges and more.

All of this flows out to yet another fabulous space: the fully fenced, serene back yard. Large enough to accommodate a grill, fire pit, and large patio furniture, this is a true entertaining space, great for game days, morning coffees, parties, you name it.

Up the floating staircase to the second floor, you'll find lovingly refinished original yellow pine plank floors. Solid wood interior doors with high-quality hardware are another feature throughout the home. The 2nd floor primary bedroom is large and light filled. A bonus space between the primary and the 2nd full bath is currently a nursery, but could easily function as an office, additional closet space, a gym or really anything a busy, full life requires! Don't miss the decorative fireplace that at one point heated the home, but is now a charming spot to use for display. To the left of the fireplace is an original door with its restored vintage hardware. The effect is a beautiful tableau of Philadelphia history.

The bonus space flows into a huge spa-like bathroom featuring a Toto low-flow toilet and Delta faucets for comfort and efficiency. The pictures don't lie - the bathroom is as spacious as it appears. No bumping shoulders when using the double sinks in this house!
The third floor has two additional bedrooms, also with the pine hardwood floors and filled with light.

Finally, the dry basement with washer and dryer is a blank canvas - use it for storage or finish it for additional living space. Additional highlights include new vinyl double-pane windows (2023), energy sealing and blown-in attic insulation (2019), new ceiling fans (2024), fresh paint throughout (2020–2025), and a 10-year roof coating warranty (2019).

Located on a quiet, friendly block just steps from Fishtown's best restaurants and cafes—Loco Pez, ReAnimator Coffee, Lloyd's, Kalaya, Omakase, Ana & Bel, Suraya, and Whipped to name a few—and a short walk to Penn Treaty Park and the Market–Frankford Line, this home offers the perfect balance of neighborhood calm and urban vibrancy.

If you're looking for a home that's comfortable, user-friendly, and spacious, with both modern amenities and timeless character, this Fishtown gem delivers it all.
