Description
Discover urban tranquility in this exceptional two-unit property, perfect for the savvy young professional or homeowner seeking additional income. Nestled in a vibrant city location with a surprisingly suburban feel, this home offers the best of both worlds. Enjoy the convenience of city living with the peace and space of a large, rare-for-Philadelphia backyard. Live in one unit and rent the other to offset your mortgage, or maximize your investment with two rental incomes. Each unit offers comfortable living spaces and the property's unique blend of urban accessibility and suburban serenity makes it a truly unique opportunity.
The property features two bi-level units—a one-bedroom and a three-bedroom—each with its own private entrance off the welcoming front porch. Entering through the left-side entrance, the lower unit offers a spacious first-floor living area with a natural flow through the living room, dining room, and recently updated kitchen. The attached mudroom has been thoughtfully converted into a private laundry room for added convenience. A full bathroom is also tucked away on this level. Up the rear staircase, the large, private bedroom overlooks a beautifully landscaped rear yard, offering a serene urban oasis. This unit also includes basement access, a valuable bonus space equipped with a top-of-the-line sump pump and dehumidification system—perfect for projects, storage or conversion into additional finished living space. The property's second unit occupies the front section of the second floor, where the living room, kitchen, and laundry room are located. The third floor features three well-sized bedrooms and a full bathroom, providing plenty of space and comfort. Both units showcase beautiful hardwood floors, decorative fireplaces, and many highly sought-after original details that enhance the home’s character. Situated just steps from the vibrant energy of Germantown Avenue, this duplex offers easy access to shops, dining, and public transportation—an investment that will pay off for years to come.
