About 1714 WATKINS ST

Welcome to the perfect blend of modern design, thoughtful craftsmanship, and city living in the heart of Newbold. Beautifully renovated just one year ago, this turnkey home offers stylish finishes, functional living spaces, and an unbeatable location just moments from Passyunk Avenue—one of Philadelphia's premier destinations for award-winning restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and nightlife.

Step inside to a bright, open-concept main level where rich hardwood floors, oversized front windows, and an effortless flow between the living and dining spaces create an inviting atmosphere perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Whether you're hosting friends for dinner or enjoying a quiet night at home, this space was designed for today's lifestyle.

At the heart of the home is a stunning eat-in kitchen featuring quartz countertops, timeless subway tile backsplash, shaker cabinetry, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. With generous prep space and abundant storage, it's equally suited for weeknight meals or weekend gatherings.

Just beyond the kitchen, your private backyard offers a rare outdoor retreat—ideal for morning coffee, summer barbecues, container gardening, or unwinding after work.

The partially finished basement provides the flexibility today's buyers are looking for, making it the perfect home office, fitness studio, media room, or bonus living space. The unfinished utility area includes the home's mechanicals along with a full-size washer and dryer.

Upstairs, you'll find two spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and a beautifully finished full bathroom featuring clean, modern tilework and timeless finishes.

Additional highlights include central air conditioning, efficient forced-air heat, and approximately six years remaining on the tax abatement, offering valuable long-term savings.

Located in one of South Philadelphia's most exciting neighborhoods, you'll enjoy the convenience of being just minutes from Passyunk Avenue, neighborhood parks, local breweries, public transportation, and Center City. Spend your weekends exploring some of the city's best restaurants, grabbing coffee at your favorite café, or meeting friends for dinner—all just a short walk from your front door.

This is more than just a home—it's a lifestyle. Move right in and experience everything Newbold has to offer.
