    What's special

    Here’s your chance to secure a fantastic investment opportunity in the heart of West Philadelphia. This versatile property features a vacant commercial space on the first floor and a spacious bi-level 4-bedroom, 1-bath residence on the upper level, offering plenty of options for the right buyer. Located near major universities, public transit, and bustling neighborhood corridors, this property is positioned perfectly for long-term growth and strong rental demand. Whether you’re looking to create steady rental income, renovate and resell, or design a mixed-use building with upside, this opportunity is full of potential. Utilities are already separated, and ATLAS reflects zoning as RSA-5. Supporting documents show approval for use as a two-family residence with commercial space beneath—a strong foundation for your investment plans. The property is being offered strictly as-is, with the buyer responsible for the City Resale Certificate, any CO requirements, and all due diligence on zoning and taxes following the City’s reassessment. The seller will not provide permits or a Certificate of Occupancy. For more information about tax assessments, please reach out to the City of Philadelphia directly. Don’t miss the chance to reimagine this property and bring out its true potential. Schedule your showing today!
