Listing description

Attention investors and savvy buyers! 1229 W Russell St presents a solid 1,600 sq. ft. end-of-row home (first house in the row) packed with immediate value-add potential, added privacy, and extra natural light. The home features 4 spacious bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, and plumbing already connected in the basement for an easy half-bath addition. All utilities are available and on-site. The heavy capital expenditures have already been completed, giving you peace of mind and lower upfront costs. A brand new roof was professionally installed last year, along with a brand new HVAC system installed last year through Philadelphia City programs. Additionally, the property has zero structural issues, making it a reliable blank canvas ready for cosmetic finishes. Situated in a convenient North Philadelphia location with easy access to Broad Street, public transit, and local amenities, this end-unit position offers strong potential for high-yield rental cash flow or a profitable flip project. Take advantage of an excellent footprint where the most expensive upgrades are already taken care of. Schedule your showing today!
