Overview

Located in the heart of Newbold, 1607 Wharton Street presents a strong value-add opportunity just steps from Broad Street and minutes to East Passyunk Avenue’s dining, shopping, and neighborhood amenities.

This three-story Philadelphia row home offers four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with a traditional layout and generous room sizes throughout. Large, sun-filled spaces and select original details provide a solid foundation for a renovation that can unlock the home’s full potential.

The property requires updates throughout and is well-suited for a light to moderate renovation. The existing layout supports efficient improvements, with a kitchen and bathroom footprint that can be modernized to meet today’s market expectations. High ceilings and multiple exposures enhance the overall feel of the main living areas.

Upper levels feature spacious bedrooms with strong natural light, offering flexibility for a variety of end uses. The full, unfinished basement provides additional storage and the potential for future finishing, supported by good ceiling height.

Positioned on a well-located block in one of South Philadelphia’s most active and steadily growing neighborhoods, this property presents a compelling opportunity for investors or buyers looking to add value in a prime location. Convenient access to public transportation, Center City, and major thoroughfares further enhances its appeal.
