About This Home
Welcome to 1609 N Lawrence Street, a truly rare find in one of the city’s most rapidly developing neighborhoods. Sitting on a lot double the width of typical city homes, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath property offers an incredible amount of living space — inside and out. Step into a bright, open-concept layout with central air, high ceilings, and room to stretch out. Entertain or relax on the large back patio, and take full advantage of the massive bi-level roof deck with sweeping views — a true outdoor escape in the heart of the city. Parking is a dream: enjoy an oversized garage for one car with easy off-street access, plus additional off-street parking available from the landlord — a major perk that’s nearly impossible to find in this location. With its extra-wide lot, extensive outdoor space, and rare parking options, this home is truly a diamond in the rough. Properties like this don’t come around often — don’t miss your chance to experience city living without compromise.
1609 N Lawrence St is a townhome located in Philadelphia County and the 19122 ZIP Code. This area is served by the The School District of Philadelphia attendance zone.
