    What's special

    Functional bones
    Prime Value-Add Opportunity on an Ultra-Quiet Block in Dickinson Narrows / Passyunk Square Pocket Tucked away on an exclusive, low-density block with just three homes total, 1526 S Marshall Street presents a rare blank-canvas opportunity in one of South Philadelphia’s hottest zip codes (19147). This wide center-row, 3-bedroom, 1-bath home is primed for a custom modern redesign, full renovation, or turnkey rental conversion. Property is being sold AS-IS. Property Highlights & Potential: Flexible Financing: Unlike gutted structures that require strict all-cash or hard money, this property has the functional bones to qualify for conventional financing, an FHA 203(k) renovation loan, or a Fannie Mae HomeStyle loan allowing an owner-occupant or savvy investor to finance both the purchase and custom remodel into one manageable mortgage. Unbeatable 19147 Location: Walkable to everything that makes South Philly desirable, just steps from Dickinson Square Park, the bustling East Passyunk Avenue corridor, award-winning restaurants, cafes, local markets, and rapid transit into Center City. Whether you are an ambitious buyer looking to build sweat equity in a custom-designed home or an investor seeking a high-yield South Philly asset, 1526 S Marshall is loaded with upside. Being sold AS-IS. Schedule your private tour today!
