Property Description
Welcome to 917 Wolf Street, a wonderfully preserved South Philadelphia home filled with original character. With more than 1250 square feet of above-grade living space, three generous bedrooms, and a large backyard, this home pairs vintage charm with the updates that matter for modern living.
Original double entry doors open to a bright, spacious first floor with high ceilings and stunning original hardwood floors with walnut inlays, beautifully refinished to highlight their character. The open layout flows easily from a full-size living room to the dining area and into the large eat-in kitchen. A true time capsule in the best way, the kitchen has been exceptionally preserved, with its original tile and vintage details intact while remaining completely functional for everyday living. Sliding glass doors lead directly outside to a large backyard, offering a partially covered area for dining and entertaining, plenty of additional space for gardening or relaxing, and a storage shed.
Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, all continuing the home's beautiful hardwood floors, along with a pristinely preserved vintage bathroom featuring original pink and green tile, which perfectly captures the personality and history of the home.
The basement adds even more usable space. Clean and partially finished with flooring, cabinetry, a work area, laundry, and an additional refrigerator and stove, it offers plenty of flexibility for a workshop, home gym, playroom, or additional storage. Important updates, including updated electrical wiring, add peace of mind without sacrificing the home's original charm.
The location is just as special. Walk just one block to Bomb Bomb Bar, recently recognized by The New York Times as one of its 50 best restaurants in America, with other neighborhood favorites Frida Cantina and Los Gallos just steps away. Head just a few blocks north and you're in the heart of East Passyunk, surrounded by some of the city's best restaurants, cafés, shops, and neighborhood staples. With easy access to the subway, major commuting routes, and the stadiums, the location makes it easy to enjoy the best of Philadelphia.
917 Wolf Street is a rare opportunity to own a spacious, character-filled home in one of South Philadelphia's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods. Beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated, it offers exceptional value that's hard to beat!
