About this home
Some homes just feel right the moment you walk in—and 1318 Alder Street is one of them.
Tucked on a quiet, tree-lined block with that classic Philadelphia neighborhood feel, this home has been thoughtfully improved over time in ways that truly matter. It’s not just about how it looks (though it looks great)—it’s about how comfortably and easily it lives every day.
The main living space is warm and inviting, with exposed brick, beautiful reclaimed wood floors, and an easy, open flow from front to back. Light comes in from both ends, and the space just works—whether it’s a quiet night in or having friends over.
The kitchen is designed for real life: concrete countertops, gas cooking, great storage, and a breakfast bar that naturally becomes the center of the home.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a great sense of character with exposed beams and natural light, and the bathroom has been expanded and thoughtfully finished to feel both comfortable and functional.
What really sets this home apart is the meaningful improvements that have been made over time—including a new water service line, updated waste line, central air, and other upgrades that contribute to a more comfortable and efficient home—so you get the charm of a classic Philly property with added peace of mind.
The home also features solar panels, helping to offset utility costs and offering a more energy-efficient way to live.
And then there’s the backyard. A true Catio!
Fully renovated with pavers, cedar fencing, and a pergola, it feels like a true extension of the home—private, inviting, and perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
