VACANT LOT! VACANT LOT! VACANT LOT!
Own a piece of Philadelphia and improve our city! Attention looky-loos, dreamers, visionaries, and builders — if this is you here is your opportunity to secure a prime infill development site in Philadelphia’s rapidly evolving East Germantown corridor.
This approximately 1,319 SF vacant lot is ideally positioned between two existing row homes, offering the perfect footprint for a new-construction single-family residence, modern townhome, or income-producing investment property. With the proper zoning approvals and design strategy, developers may also explore multi-level living concepts with rooftop decks, finished basements, open-concept layouts, rear patios, or high-demand rental configurations tailored to today’s urban buyer.
Located in historic East Germantown, one of Northwest Philadelphia’s most active redevelopment corridors, the neighborhood benefits from easy access to Center City via SEPTA. It is within 5 miles of LaSalle, Germantown Friends, the Wissahickon, Uncle Bobby's Bookstore, Nile Vegan Soul Food, H-Mart, and more!
Other nearby amenities include historic Germantown Avenue, Awbury Arboretum, Wissahickon Valley Park trails, Maplewood Mall, and the vibrant Wayne Junction redevelopment district. Residents enjoy access to other neighborhood favorites like Deke's Bar-B-Que and Attic Brewing Company, along with a growing collection of cafés, local shops, and breweries.
I want to hear from you if:
*You are just a regular person who has been sitting on the fence and you're ready to take the leap.
*You have the funds in hand and are ready to sign an Agreement of Sale
*You have done your due diligence and visited the lot on your own already.
*You understand that we will use a REPUTABLE Title company of YOUR choosing
I do NOT want to hear from you if:
*You are looking to be my agent
*You want to know if it is still available (if it's listed, it is)
*You want to do the "assignment" thing. I am not interested
*You want to ask me questions about the property that are easily found here in this ad, online, or by visiting the property yourself.
FAQs
1.
Q. What's the catch?
A. No catch. I've had this vacant lot for 7 years and I'm finally ready to sell it.
2.
Q. How did you come to own this property?
A. I bought it at Sheriff's Tax sale auction at 39th and Market in 2019 free and clear.
3.
Q. Are you a developer, wholesaler, agent, etc.
A. No, I am a private citizen.
4.
Q. What will you do if you don't sell it soon?
A. Hold it indefinitely until I get my asking price. I would also love to possibly build a triplex of modern tiny apartments (but not for a while.)
5.
Q. If I reach out to you, what should I expect?
A. I am sorry but I don't have time for phone calls and inquiries. It's a vacant lot. That's all there is to it. If you're ready to buy we can be in touch for you to let me know which title company you will use and I will then do my own research on that company before drawing up an Agreement of Sale for us to sign.
6.
Q. Are you open to negotiating the price?
A. Not really, but if you reach out with a price and I'm willing to accept it, I'll send a "thumbs up." Otherwise, I will not reply. My price is pretty firm.
7.
Q. How do I know that you aren't a scammer?
A. You don't. And I don't know that you aren't one either. That's why YOU can choose the REPUTABLE title company and I will then do my due diligence.
