Modern Home in a Historic Neighborhood

Philly's original guard commingling with fresh new faces is a recurrent phenomenon in modern Philadelphia, and no neighborhood shows off the fruits of such open-minded growth better than East Passyunk.

For years, insiders have flocked to the South Philadelphia neighborhood for its restaurants, particularly its red-gravy Italian spots. The neighborhood surrounding the avenue—a diagonal interruption to Philadelphia's grid layout—has enjoyed revitalizations in recent years, creating a sort of renaissance for the thoroughfare itself.

Visitors who stroll down Passyunk (pronounced ‘pa-shunk' by those in the know) find eclectic boutiques, coffee shops, vintage clothing stores, gastropubs, excellent Mexican and sushi fare, as well as the amazing Italian eateries that first made this street famous—not to mention the two across-the-street cheesesteak rivals, Pat's King of Steaks and Geno's Steaks.

The neighborhood is now garnering national praise for its fantastic restaurants, with Food & Wine magazine recently naming East Passyunk Avenue one of the 10 Best Foodie Streets In America.
This special spot is in the vibrant East Passyunk Square neighborhood, a block from some of the top restaurants & bars in the city. Located 10 min. from Center & Old Cities, 4 blocks to the subway, & 6 blocks to the Italian Market. A Must Stay.

Perfect Location in South Philly
We loved this place! It had a great set up and a really fun vibe. It is within a couple miles of most of Philadelphia's top attractions, and the Broad Street Metro is close by if you prefer. Leslie is an accommodating and communicative host. I would happily stay here again!

We had a lovely stay at this conveniently located rental. We found the rental to be just as described in the write up. Very clean and nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows and big soft bath towels in the bath! Leslie our host was easy to communicate and readily available to answer any questions. I highly recommend this rental and give it a 5 star rating. Thank you Leslie for sharing your home and for being so accommodating.

Live like a Philadelphian
From my initial email to my final departure the experience with the owners was fantastic - responsive and attentive and very welcoming. The property is well kept and would be perfect for two couple or a group of friends looking to stay away from the tourism and stay in a real Philly neighbourhood. The location and amenities nearby are located perfectly: If you are in town for the food and drink, sports or sites, or everything - you can walk to most places within 30 minutes or jump on the subway located just 5 minutes away. Loved this property, loved the location and the Philly! Go Birds and Thank You Leslie and Lasil!

Leslie's place was cute, updated and very CLEAN! 1 block away from Acme grocery store, CVS and multiple coffee shops. Perfectly situated for a walk down Passyunk Ave. Short uber ride to all the downtown historic neighborhoods. Leslie was super communicative and checked to make sure we were comfortable during our stay. Highly recommend!

We reserved the home overnight to see a concert .The house was lovely, clean and just as pictured. The property Managers kept in contact with us to give us all the necessary information ahead of time and we had absolutely no issues with the house. We would definitely stay here if it’s available and we are in the area again.
