About This Home

Available Now

**AVAILABLE NOV. 22ND** Welcome to 1837 E Albert Street! This lovely 2 bedroom, 1 bath home is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the best of both East Kensington and Fishtown. Youâ€™re greeted by a cute brick front, south-facing facade outside and modern finishes with an open concept inside. The airy center stair layout allows for the living and dining rooms to flow naturally together, while still maintaining 2 distinct spaces bathed in natural light from the large front window. The main floor also includes a convenient closet by the front door, a rarity in row homes! The updated kitchen is located in the back of the home and boasts stylish shaker cabinetry, a tile backsplash, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. This kitchen inspires regardless of if youâ€™re entertaining indoors or out. Speaking of outdoors, off the kitchen youâ€™ll find a private back patio with plenty of room to grill & chill, as well as tend to your garden or romp with the pup. The natural light continues upstairs with a skylight in the stairwell leading to 2 large bedrooms (both with closets and sizable windows) and a spacious full bath with updated tile and deep soaking tub. Downstairs the tidy basement offers decent height, an abundance of storage and a full size washer and dryer. Walk to the best of Fishtown and East Kensington, while also having easy access to public transit (Huntingdon Septa station is around the corner). Sample the pierogis at Little Walterâ€™s (NYT 2024 Best Restaurants in America) or Laotian specialties at Vientiane Bistro - Philadelphiaâ€™s dining culture doesnâ€™t get better than this and itâ€™s all at your doorstep! **Tenants responsible for all utilities and rental insurance. Pets will be considered on a case by case basis.**

Neighborhood

Kensington is an artistic neighborhood in Philadelphia that offers unique rentals, partially due to the spacious studio and loft apartments available. There are also several affordable and modern townhomes for rent in town that attract families. You’ll find locals heading down Frankford Avenue to the artistic Fishtown neighborhood which is full of craft breweries and charming pubs. Check out Philadelphia Brewing Company or Memphis Taproom for some local brews. Try a cheese pie at Pizza Brain, which doubles as the nation’s only pizza museum, or chow down on bratwurst at Frankford Hall, a large, indoor German beer garden.

There are several stops on the area’s commuter rail line in Kensington, as well as plenty of bus routes to get to Center City, located less than five miles away, making this neighborhood a more affordable yet convenient option for in-city living.
