ALL OFFERS ARE DUE 5PM ON THURSDAY 7/10. mid-century CHIC home in the heart of Dickinson Square! Welcome to 1612 S Orkney Street, a 3 BD/1.5 BA home that has been carefully renovated, professionally designed, and downright ADORED over the years. From a gas fireplace and clawfoot tub to a Pinterest-worthy kitchen and vibrant wallpapering, this home marries vintage elements with modern upgrades making it truly a cohesive (and comfortable) space! Step through the vestibule into the open main floor where refinished hardwood floors and soft natural light create a warm, welcoming first impression; the dining room is a stylish common area - accented by a petite breakfast peninsula - for grazing, hosting, and hanging alike. The kitchen is one of the many focal points; the pastel shaker cabinets, white quartz counters, starburst hex backsplash, farmhouse sink, mixed metals, and Café appliances make it a true vision for any homeowner. Immediately off the kitchen is a convenient half bathroom with additional storage and cozy patio to savor the summer nights. The second floor is home to three airy bedrooms and a sizable hall bathroom. Between the refinished hardwoods and black and white subway tile, the upstairs breathes even more timeless energy into the home and makes this South Philly row truly one-of-a-kind. Refinished original hardwoods floors throughout. Steps from Dickinson Park, Rebel and Wolf, Moonshine, BOK Bar, Grindcore, Herman's, and more. Minutes from I-95, I-76, and the Philadelphia International Airport!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
