LIVE IN ONE. RENT THE OTHER. BUILD WEALTH. Discover an exceptional house-hacking or investment opportunity with this renovated, legally zoned duplex in Philadelphia’s Brewerytown neighborhood. The property offers $3,150 in potential monthly rental income — $37,800 annually. The first-floor 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath unit is currently leased at $1,400/month, providing immediate income. The spacious upper-level 3-bedroom bi-level unit is vacant and offered at $1,750/month, giving a new owner the flexibility to move in and let the existing tenant help offset the mortgage — or lease both units for maximum income potential. Both units feature attractive updated living spaces, and the property offers the convenience of separate living arrangements in one multifamily investment. With the upper unit vacant, an owner-occupant can enjoy the benefits of homeownership while collecting rental income from day one. For investors, the numbers are equally compelling: 3,150/month potential gross rent, $37,800 annual potential gross income, and an opportunity to own a turnkey duplex in an area convenient to Center City, Fairmount Park, major transportation routes, dining and neighborhood amenities. Whether you're a first-time multifamily buyer, seasoned investor, or homeowner looking for a smart way to reduce your monthly housing expense, 1725 N 27th Street offers flexibility, income and opportunity — all under $400K. Schedule your private showing and see how this duplex could work for you!
