1537 S LECOUNT STREET

PHILADELPHIA, PA19146

Behind a whitewashed brick front and a row of window boxes, this 1925 Grays Ferry rowhome was rebuilt from the inside out between 2019 and 2022, with an architect’s eye for proportion and restraint. The first floor runs straight through in one clean line. A built-in window seat anchors the living room, an arched niche frames the dining area, and European ash floors run the full length beneath repointed whitewashed brick. The galley kitchen keeps things quiet: flat-front custom cabinetry, quartz counters, lit open shelving, and steel-framed glass doors that open directly to the garden. That garden is the first payoff. It’s fully built out with wood-clad walls, planted beds, and room for a long dining table under the trees. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has backlit built-in shelving and a full wall of wardrobes. The second bedroom, currently a home office, has its own built-in storage. The full bath is the standout on this floor, with a freestanding soaking tub, a separate glass shower, a double-wide sink, and a heated towel rail. The finished lower level adds a second full bath with a walk-in shower, laundry, and a media lounge built around a long built-in banquette. Central air and a tankless water heater were installed in 2020, and the windows have been replaced. Just off Tasker Street, the house is close to Grays Ferry Crescent, where the Schuylkill River Trail now links this part of South Philadelphia to Center City on foot or by bike.
