Welcome to 1222 S Alder Street, a stylish 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home in the heart of Passyunk Square offering character, flexible living space, and three private outdoor areas.
The open first floor blends warmth and function with hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and an exposed brick accent wall. The living and dining areas flow naturally into the kitchen, where dark cabinetry, light countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, and a peninsula create an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining.
Just beyond the kitchen, a private enclosed patio extends the living space outdoors and provides a comfortable setting for dining, entertaining, or relaxing.
The second floor includes two bedrooms and a full hall bath, offering flexibility for sleeping quarters, guests, or a dedicated home office.
The third floor is reserved for a private primary suite featuring a spacious bedroom, two walk-in closets, an en-suite bath, and two private balconies. Step outside and enjoy neighborhood rooftop views, including a striking view toward the Philadelphia skyline.
The finished lower level adds even more versatility, with space well suited for a media room, home office, exercise area, guest space, or recreation room, along with a separate utility area for added functionality.
Additional features include central air, electric forced-air heat, a roof replaced shortly after the sellers purchased the property in 2020, and central air installed in 2024.
All of this is set in Passyunk Square, with neighborhood restaurants, cafés, shopping, parks, the Italian Market, and public transportation within easy reach.
With an open main level, exposed brick, a private third-floor suite, finished lower-level space, and three outdoor retreats, 1222 S Alder Street offers a distinctive blend of city living, comfort, and flexibility in one of South Philadelphia’s most appealing neighborhoods.
