About This Property
Historic charm meets modern convenience in this newly refurbished 1920 townhouse, centrally located in Philadelphia’s hottest neighborhood. The home has maintained many of the original decorative elements, and updates have been painstakingly kept in the 1920s aesthetic of the property. The interior features ornate lighting fixtures, crystal doorknobs, a carved wood bannister, and many other details to be appreciated in person. Additionally, the basement provides ample room for storage and comes with a never-before-used washer & dryer (not shown), and the yard is exceedingly spacious for a city dwelling. Situated in the most vibrant area of Fishtown, the property is just off of the main thoroughfare of Girard Avenue and within a block of two coffee shops, record store, art gallery, and multiple boutiques—yet tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street of single-family homes. A few minutes walk takes you to various modes of transit (the Girard Stop of the El Train, the trolley, busses, Indego Bikeshare), award-winning restaurants, bars/nightclubs, live music venues, dinner theatre, standup comedy, a dog park, several gyms/pilates/yoga studios, a pool club, and two supermarkets. The house is also located 4 blocks from the Delaware River waterfront, the Riverwalk, and Penn Treaty Park. Be sure to click through the thumbnails here for the full vertical photo views, which show the high ceilings and hardwood flooring (please note that a few items belonging to a previous occupant are in the listing photos, but will be removed prior to rental). The home is being offered for $2295 for an 18 month lease or $2350 for 12 months. Do not hesitate to get in touch for additional info and tours!
1131 E Oxford St is a house located in Philadelphia County and the 19125 ZIP Code.

Property Information

Built in 1920
Once the epicenter of the commercial shad fishing industry, Fishtown is now a creative hub for artistic, culinary, and musical action in Philadelphia. Beer gardens, independent coffee shops, diverse restaurants, eclectic bars, vibrant murals, and live music abound in Fishtown.
Renting in Fishtown affords residents the option to catch a concert at the Fillmore Philadelphia, play classic video games at Barcade, and drink artisanal coffee at La Colombe Coffee Roasters. Palmer Park and Penn Treaty Park also offer a lush reprieve from city life in the neighborhood.
Fishtown manages to feel far removed from the hustle and bustle of Center City, despite being less than a ten-minute ride away via the El. Convenience to I-95 connects Fishtown to destinations like New Jersey, New York, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. in less than a two-hour drive.
