Passyunk Square real estate centers on East Passyunk Avenue, one of the strongest restaurant corridors in the city and the reason demand here has held up through every market of the last fifteen years. Homes are mostly rowhouses — many renovated, some still original, a few new builds with roof decks. Proximity to the Avenue drives price more than square footage does. If you're selling here, that's the lever.
Most notably, Food & Wine magazine recently named East Passyunk Avenue one of the 10 Best Foodie Streets In America - but to locals this is nothing new. Italian eateries within the community have been turning heads for years along with one of the most famous rivalries in the area, Pat’s King of Steaks and Geno’s Steaks.
