Luxury New Construction in the Heart of East Passyunk – Unrivaled Views & High-End Finishes
Welcome to 1001 Watkins Street, a stunning brand-new three-story home just steps from East Passyunk Avenue, crowned the “Top Foodie Street in America” by Food & Wine Magazine. This 3/4-bedroom, 3-bathroom masterpiece boasts top-tier craftsmanship, high-end finishes, and one of the best roof decks in all of Philadelphia.
From the moment you arrive, the home’s striking elevation and oversized front windows offer a breathtaking view of Isaiah Zagar’s iconic Philadelphia Magic Gardens Watkins Street Studio—a unique backdrop for your living space. Step inside to a beautifully designed open-concept main level, featuring a luxurious modern kitchen with sleek granite waterfall countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in bar area—perfect for entertaining. The door off the kitchen leads to a private outdoor patio, ideal for grilling or relaxing.
Head downstairs to a fully finished basement with ample natural light, a full bathroom, multiple closets, and a versatile space that can serve as an additional living area or a fourth bedroom.
The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a convenient laundry room. But the primary suite on the third floor is where the home truly shines—large enough for your ideal bedroom setup, featuring a walk-in closet and a spa-like en-suite bathroom with views of the Philadelphia skyline to start and end your day with a touch of serenity.
And then there’s the roof deck. At 500 square feet, this expansive rooftop oasis offers unobstructed 360-degree views of the city skyline, stadiums, and the Ben Franklin & Walt Whitman Bridges—a show-stopping feature that sets this home apart.
Designed for comfort and efficiency, the home features Dual-Zone HVAC, Vivint Security System, upgraded windows, and superior craftsmanship throughout. Not to mention the thoughtful design of the front staircase to incorporate a secure gated space for package deliveries.
But what truly makes this home special is its prime location. With a Walk Score of 98, you’re steps away from East Passyunk’s vibrant dining and nightlife scene, including Stogie Joe’s Tavern, Le Virtu, Palizzi Social Club, Rival Bros., Ember & Ash, River Twice, Laurel, Barcelona Wine Bar, and many more. Need to work off all that indulgence? City Fitness is just around the corner. You’ll also find neighborhood gems like El Chignon, Messina Social Club, Varallo Brothers Bakery, Esposito’s Roast Pork, and Mike’s BBQ all within a few blocks.
With easy access to the Broad Street Line, commuting is effortless, getting you anywhere in the city within minutes.
Don’t miss your chance to live in one of Philadelphia’s most desirable neighborhoods—this is more than just a home; it’s a lifestyle.
