    What's special

    INCREDIBLE VALUE in tip top condition! Corner property - 51st & Chester Ave. The property is on a tree-lined streets, across from a library & beautifully maintained tennis and basketball courts part of the local community. Public transportation just outside making this a highly desirable rental when turn over occurs. This property & the entire block have maintained some of the original grandeur that is synonymous with Philadelphia architecture. The area has a walk/bike score of 91 and 94 respectively, and is just steps away from the trolley that goes directly into center city! Inside are 3, all electric, independent 2-bedroom units that were renovated in 2013.~~All of the appliances that are in use at this moment come with the sale. There are tenants in place, and all are happy and current. There is a full unfinished basement that can be converted into a fourth unit with just a few changes, & a brand new sprinkler system has been installed. Third floor offers a bonus room - a finished 4th floor attic. Finishing out this amazing triplex is a large front porch & a brand new deck in the backyard, providing a peaceful retreat for the first floor tenant. Solid property, solid investment near University of Pa and University of the Sciences.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
