About This Home

Striking from the street and equally impressive inside, 226 W Wildey Street pairs distinctive architecture, sunlit interiors, and abundant living space in the heart of Northern Liberties. This updated, move-in ready home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a finished basement, central A/C, a private patio, and a walkable location close to popular restaurants, friendly cafes, and local shops. A tree-lined street leads to the towering brick façade, where a sculptural staircase, curved metal railings, and dramatic arched transom windows create a standout first impression. Inside, hardwood floors stretch across the bright and airy main level, where soaring ceilings and lots of natural light create a welcoming space. The open layout provides plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining, and gathering around the table. A few steps up, the sleek kitchen is fitted with generous custom wood cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a mosaic tile backsplash, slate tile floors, and a breakfast bar. Out back, the secluded patio acts as an escape from the city bustle for summer barbecues, morning coffee, or al fresco dinners. The finished basement adds even more flexible living space for a home theater, gym, playroom, or guest area, along with laundry, a powder room, and storage. On the second floor, two sunlit bedrooms sit at opposite ends of the level, separated by a full bathroom. The top floor is highlighted by a large primary suite featuring tall windows, a vaulted ceiling with skylights, built-in display niches, a walk-in closet, and a full bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower. Across the hall, the fourth bedroom is ideal for a home office, nursery, dressing room, or additional sleeping space and opens through sliding glass doors to a Juliet balcony. 226 W Wildey Street’s fantastic location earns a Walk Score of 93, with sprawling Liberty Lands Park steps away. Just a block south, lively 2nd Street is lined with hotspots like North Bowl, fitness classes at Orange theory, and cuisines from around the world along Liberties Walk. Neighboring Fishtown also offers plenty to explore, plus there is easy access to public transit, I-95, I-676, and South Jersey. Schedule your showing today!
