About this home
Townhouse · Built 1925 · Historic
Welcome to 858 E Thompson Street in the heart of vibrant Fishtown & located in the highly sought out Alexander Adaire catchment! This light-filled home seamlessly blends reclaimed architectural charm with modern design, offering exceptional comfort, functionality, and style. Step inside to an inviting main level featuring recessed lighting and a stunning bay window that floods the space with natural light. The living room, dining area, and oversized kitchen flow effortlessly—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is a true focal point, complete with 42" cabinetry, quartz countertops, a custom island with seating and a built-in wine fridge, subway tile backsplash, double oven with a 5-burner range, and a large custom pantry with built-ins for optimal storage. Upstairs, the second floor offers three generously sized bedrooms, enhanced with custom built-ins and professionally redesigned California Closets for optimal organization. A convenient laundry closet and a spacious full bath. The entire third floor is a dedicated primary suite. Featuring additional custom storage solutions and a spa-like ensuite bath with double quartz vanities, Carrara marble tile flooring, and a sleek neo-angle glass shower. One of the most exciting and rare features of this home is the rear yard—a true backyard, not just a patio. With ample space and green grass, it offers a unique outdoor experience that’s hard to find in the neighborhood—perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or creating your own private oasis. Additional highlights include reclaimed original hardwood flooring throughout, soaring 10-foot ceilings, exposed brick, custom railings with oak handrails, and a decorative marble fireplace that adds warmth and character. The home was fully renovated just a few years ago with updated mechanicals, dual-zone HVAC, new electrical with CAT5 wiring, and all-new plumbing. This is a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully designed, light-filled home with a true backyard in one of Philadelphia’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
