Welcome to 1127 N Sloan St, a beautifully renovated corner rowhome in the heart of West Philadelphia’s Parkside neighborhood, set up as a charming duplex with incredible potential. This property offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience, featuring brand-new windows, a new roof installed in 2025, and energy-saving hydronic baseboard heaters throughout—ensuring comfort and efficiency year-round. It’s an ideal opportunity for investors, owner-occupants, or anyone looking to live in one unit and rent the other.
This two-unit rowhome features a 1-bedroom apartment on the first floor and a spacious 2-bedroom apartment upstairs, each with its own separate entrance through a shared vestibule. The downstairs unit boasts a stylish living area with an exposed brick wall, a modern kitchenette, and a large private deck accessible via the bedroom—perfect for outdoor relaxation. Underneath the deck, you’ll find a dedicated off-street parking spot, a rare gem in the city. The upstairs unit offers two large bedrooms, a full-sized kitchen with ample counter space, and a luxurious bathroom featuring a vanity mirror with built-in LED lights and a defogger. The hallway, lined with an exposed brick wall, leads to an in-unit washer and dryer, adding convenience for tenants or residents.
Both units showcase an industrial-modern aesthetic with durable waterproof vinyl flooring, neutral color palettes, and sleek finishes throughout. The brand-new windows flood the space with natural light, enhancing the corner property’s airy feel, while the energy-saving hydronic baseboard heaters provide efficient, quiet warmth during Philly’s chilly winters. A new roof installed in 2025 ensures peace of mind for years to come, making this rowhome a low-maintenance investment. A shared front porch with modern black iron railings provides a welcoming spot to enjoy the neighborhood’s vibrant street life, and the corner location ensures excellent visibility and charm.
