What's around 1639 Francis St

About this property

Welcome to 1639 Francis Street, a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home in the heart of Francisville. Spread across three levels, this residence blends modern comfort with thoughtful design. The open-concept first floor is bright and airy, flowing seamlessly to a private rear patio, perfect for morning coffee or evening entertaining. Upstairs, the second floor offers two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and a walk-in closet, while the entire third floor is dedicated to a private primary suite with two additional walk-in closets, a spectacular spa bath featuring a huge walk-in shower and soaking tub. A fully finished basement provides flexible space for a media room, gym, or office. But what truly sets this home apart is not just its design, it’s the lifestyle it offers. Living here means having Center City just a quick walk away, with the Broad Street Line and the 2 bus steps from your door for an easy commute anywhere in the city. Everyday essentials are within walking distance, from multiple grocery stores (Giant, Aldi, Whole Foods) to the best beer distributor in town (Stone’s, just down the block). Neighborhood favorites like Bar Hygge and RyBread quickly become part of your weekly routine, where the staff know you by name. Francisville also offers a vibrant network of parks and play spaces. From Francisville Playground and Pool just two minutes away, to Roberto Clemente Park’s splash pad, to the gardens and sand pit at Eastern State Penitentiary, the neighborhood makes it easy to enjoy the outdoors and connect with neighbors. Four-legged family members are just as spoiled, with Green Street Dog Park and Francisville Dog Park nearby. Weekend mornings might begin with coffee at Twisted Grounds; owned by neighbors who still man the counter, or brunch at Café Lift, followed by an afternoon at Love City Brewing. Evenings are for strolling down Fairmount Avenue, where you can choose from sushi at Javelin, seafood at Pier Bar, Indian at Tiffin, Greek at Zorba’s, or a casual game-day stop at Urban Saloon. From springtime walks under flowering trees around Eastern State, to Sunday dinners at Bar Hygge, to spontaneous meetups with friends and neighbors, life at 1639 Francis Street is about more than a home; it’s about community, connection, and everyday convenience in one of Philadelphia’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Don’t miss the chance to make this home and lifestyle your own—schedule your private showing today.
