426 S 44th Street Unit 2

Tucked along a leafy, tree-lined block in the heart of West Philadelphia, this rarely offered porch-front Victorian condo offers a full-floor home with both space and character. Set on the second level of a gracious 19th-century twin, the residence blends original charm with thoughtful modern updates. Inside, you’ll find central air, recessed lighting, fire-sprinkler protection, and surprisingly generous closet space. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, shaker-style cabinetry, ceramic tile flooring, and stainless-steel appliances, opening to a spacious living and dining area with hardwood floors and a sunlit bay window overlooking leafy 44th Street. Original woodwork adds warmth throughout, while the rear bedroom offers great proportions, ample storage, and an en-suite bath with tiled tub and in-unit washer/dryer. Outside your door, West Philadelphia shines—known for its lush canopy streets and iconic Victorian architecture, built during the late 1800s streetcar expansion and celebrated for its intricate details and enduring charm. You’re just one block from Clark Park and moments from The Woodlands, with beloved neighborhood staples like Green Line Café, Dottie’s Donuts, and Abyssinia, all nearby. Easy street parking, excellent transit, and walkability to Penn, Drexel, HUP, CHOP, and USciences complete the picture. With low monthly fees and an unbeatable location, this is a one-bedroom that lives large—in both space and setting.
