Several leases also provide flexibility for future planning while maintaining strong current cash flow. The building offers an ideal setup for a buyer looking to enjoy one of the units while benefiting from additional income from the remaining apartments. Each residence has its own unique charm, with thoughtfully updated kitchens, stylish cabinetry, stone countertops, vintage-inspired baths, and abundant natural light throughout. From the dramatic vestibule entry to the soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and restored woodwork, the craftsmanship and character are immediately evident. The mix of modern updates and preserved original details creates a warm, luxury aesthetic rarely found in multi-family properties. Located just minutes from University City, Clark Park, Cedar Park, Baltimore Avenue restaurants, trolley access, CHOP, Penn, and Drexel, this is an exceptional opportunity for both lifestyle and long-term investment potential. Whether you’re looking to secure a standout income-producing asset, enjoy luxury city living with supplemental income, or add a trophy property to your portfolio, 815 S 49th St delivers a rare combination of scale, design, location, and cash flow.
