Listing description

Live in one half, rent the other, and let your tenant help make the mortgage payment. 2525 N 12th Street is a 2,912 square foot brick rowhouse split into two separate homes — five bedrooms and two full baths in total. The four-bedroom is vacant and ready for you to move into. The one-bedroom is already rented at $930 a month on a lease that runs through July 2027, so that check starts the month you close. Both units are fully separately metered for gas, electric and water. Your tenant pays their own utilities. The kitchen and both bathrooms have been redone — shaker cabinets, stone counters, new vanities, new tile. Fresh paint throughout, ceiling fans in every bedroom, and original hardwood in the main rooms. Three full stories plus a clean, dry basement with room for storage and laundry. Built in 1915 with solid masonry walls, on a 15 by 68 foot lot, zoned RM1. Close to Temple University, Temple Hospital and the Broad Street Line. FHA, VA and conventional financing all welcome. Seller is offering an assist toward your closing costs or an interest- rate buy-down — ask your agent. Certificate of occupancy is handled and paid for by the seller.
