A modern, elegant facade sets the tone upon arrival. Inside, a contemporary foyer welcomes you with access to a private office, a convenient half bath, and a rear patio.

The luxurious bath features a gorgeous free standing soaking tub, attractive tiling, and a modern double vanity with fog free mirrors. The space is equal parts functional, private, and serene.
Perhaps the best part of this modern gem is a dynamic roof top terrace, with generous proportions and even better Center City skyline and Ben Franklin Bridge views. What better way to wake up or unwind than to drink in the ambiance of this outdoor space! Of course, the private garage offers the ultimate in city convenience: storage, secure access, and on demand parking! The finished lower level boasts a large bedroom and en suite bath, which makes it an ideal space for a guest suite, family room, gym, playroom and more.
Located just a short walk to 2nd Street’s restaurants and cafes, and close to Fishtown, Old City, and Center City, with quick access to the Ben Franklin Bridge, 848 N Leithgow Street offers the privacy of a detached home with the energy and access of city living. Plus a tight-knit community, friendly neighbors, and regular block parties that make this more than just a house—it’s home.
