About the Listing KWEMPWR - 3306174

There's a kind of house in West Philly that you just don't find very often, the one with original parquet floors, a wood-burning fireplace with original tile surround, and a handcrafted staircase with wainscoting that somebody built to last a century. This is that house. 619 S 42nd Street is a 4-bedroom, 2-bath rowhome that's been thoughtfully updated where it counts without losing any of what makes it worth renting in the first place. The living room is wide, light-filled, and anchored by that original fireplace. The parquet wood floors carry through the main level and into the formal dining room. The kitchen has been freshly updated top to bottom: new quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash and tall wood cabinetry. There's also direct access to the backyard from the kitchen, a genuinely underrated feature. The primary bedroom is the kind of room that photographs well for a reason, bay windows on two sides, two closets, clean carpet, and a space that it doesn't feel like you're negotiating with the furniture. The second bedroom on this floor is a well-proportioned interior room with its own closet, and both share the updated full bathroom with white vanity, and a stand-up corner shower. Up on the third floor, you get two more bedrooms plus a built-in work nook, ideal whether you're working from home or have a student in the house. This level has its own full bathroom with a tub/shower combo and floor-to-ceiling marble-look tile, so the third floor functions almost independently from the rest of the home. 619 S 42nd Street sits on the border of Spruce Hill and University City, two of West Philadelphia's most walkable, connected neighborhoods. You're a few blocks from Baltimore Avenue's coffee shops, restaurants, and neighborhood staples. Penn and Drexel are within easy reach. Clark Park is close. SEPTA's 42nd Street trolley stop is nearby, and 30th Street Station is a short ride away. This is a location that works whether you're commuting into Center City, walking to campus, or just want to be somewhere with actual street life. This one checks the boxes that actually matter.
