Mill Creek, located between Mantua and Haddington, is a residential and institutional Philadelphia neighborhood with rowhouse blocks and broad arterial corridors. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around Lancaster Avenue at 52nd Street, where corner stores, takeout counters, and SEPTA stops line the sidewalks. Community life often orbits the Lee Cultural Center and the nearby Please Touch Museum at Memorial Hall. Brick twins and porch-front rows sit beside larger campus-style buildings tied to Drexel University and Penn. Malcolm X Park adds a green pause along the creek’s former path, while Market Street and Lancaster Avenue set a steady city rhythm.
We are offering a $5,000 seller assist towards downpayment, or simple price reduction. Proof of funds required for showings. Just finished minor renovations, fresh coat of paint throughout and a thorough cleaning.
