Here's something lovely and not easy to find these days: A beautiful 2 story, 2-Bed house on a quiet back street - right off of Frankford Avenue by La Colombe and Jeni's Ice Cream - in the heart of Fishtown, remodeled with love by great owners who lived in the house for years and now are offering it for rent. House has a gorgeous and spacious kitchen, great sized yard and wood floors. 1ST FLOOR: Enter into front room with space for living/lounging etc. 1st Floor rear is a large kitchen with quartz counters, newer 5 burner range, stainless fridge with dispenser, dishwasher, disposal and deep farmhouse type sink.

Neighborhood

Once the epicenter of the commercial shad fishing industry, Fishtown is now a creative hub for artistic, culinary, and musical action in Philadelphia. Beer gardens, independent coffee shops, diverse restaurants, eclectic bars, vibrant murals, and live music abound in Fishtown.

Renting in Fishtown affords residents the option to catch a concert at the Fillmore Philadelphia, play classic video games at Barcade, and drink artisanal coffee at La Colombe Coffee Roasters. Palmer Park and Penn Treaty Park also offer a lush reprieve from city life in the neighborhood.

Fishtown manages to feel far removed from the hustle and bustle of Center City, despite being less than a ten-minute ride away via the El. Convenience to I-95 connects Fishtown to destinations like New Jersey, New York, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. in less than a two-hour drive.
