About 1204 S 17th St

Welcome to 1204 S 17th Street—a 4-bed, 3 full bath beauty with 2,138 square feet of style, space, and some seriously sweet rooftop views. Nestled right in the heart of Point Breeze, this townhome delivers the kind of layout that just gets it. From the open-concept first floor to the sun-soaked roof deck, every inch is designed to make daily living feel a little more elevated. Let’s start with the kitchen: granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, sleek island with breakfast seating, and plenty of cabinets for everything a home chef could want to store. Big windows with Eastern and Western exposures let the natural light flood in all day, and just outside, your private patio is ready for grill nights, container gardening, or a peaceful moment with your morning coffee. Upstairs on the second floor, you’ll find two roomy bedrooms with big closets, a stylish full bath with tub/shower combo, and a full-sized side-by-side laundry setup. The third floor? That’s all about you! The entire level is dedicated to the primary suite, with space to stretch out in your king-size bed and still fit a reading nook or Peloton. There’s a walk-in closet and a luxe bathroom with a double vanity and walk-in tiled shower. Just outside the bedroom, a wet bar leads you to the real showstopper: the private rooftop deck with open-sky vibes and views of Center City. Sunsets up here? Unreal. And yes, there’s more. The fully finished basement includes a bonus den (ideal for a home gym, movie cave, or home office), an additional bedroom, and a full bathroom. That’s flexibility that works for whatever life throws your way. Live just steps from the buzz of American Sardine Bar, Chicks, and around the corner from groceries at Sprouts or Target. Stroll over to Washington Ave or East Passyunk for an unbeatable mix of food, drinks, and shopping. Need to head downtown? The Broad Street Line is just a few blocks away at Ellsworth-Federal. This isn’t just another townhome—it’s a city retreat with smart layout choices, great finishes, and spaces to actually enjoy being home.
