    Excellent investment opportunity in the Cobbs Creek section of Philadelphia. This fully rented, income-generating duplex offers immediate cash flow and long-term value in a well-established neighborhood. The property is an end-unit, providing extra light and privacy, and sits on a quiet, tree-lined block with convenient access to public transportation, parks, and local amenities. The building consists of two well-maintained units. Unit 1 is a spacious bi-level with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, offering ample living space and a functional layout for tenants. Unit 2 features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, with a comfortable and efficient floor plan. Both units are equipped with recessed lighting, tiled kitchens and bathrooms, central air, individual heating systems, and separate hot water heaters. High ceilings and large windows throughout both units allow for plenty of natural light and create an open, airy atmosphere. This property is ideal for investors looking to expand their rental portfolio with a fully occupied building in a desirable area. It also presents an excellent option for an owner-occupant who may wish to live in one unit while collecting rental income from the other. With solid existing tenants and strong rental history, this duplex is a great opportunity for steady income and future appreciation.
