Calling all contractors and investors! While framed as a duplex, this home could easily be made into a large single-family home. If you are looking for your next rewarding project, this home is a great opportunity. The entry begins with an enclosed front porch featuring windows on three sides that bring in tons of natural light. Step inside to a small foyer where separate doorways provide access to each floor. The main-level opens into a primary living area that flows smoothly into the kitchen space. Beyond this is a full bathroom, with a bedroom positioned at the rear of the home. This level also includes access to the unfinished basement, which offers excellent storage or the potential to be finished into additional living space. The basement features a door leading to the back alley, where you will find a dedicated parking space. There is also space for a single-car garage; it was previously enclosed to expand the basement footprint, but it could easily be converted back into a functional garage if desired. The upstairs opens into a combined living and kitchen area, though for a single-family home this space could be turned into another bedroom for this floor. Positioned toward the front of the home is a full hallway bathroom and the first bedroom, while the second bedroom is located at the rear. Both bedrooms offer ample closet space and benefit from plenty of natural light. Located on a residential block just a short distance from the trails and athletic fields of Fairmount Park, local schools, and the retail corridors along Ridge and Lehigh Avenues. Offering simple commuting with immediate access to local SEPTA bus routes, the Allegheny Regional Rail station, and the Susquehanna-Dauphin Broad Street Line station for a direct route into Center City.
