Phenomenal University City property on a lovely tree-lined block in the Penn Alexander Catchment. Currently set up as a duplex, perfect for owner occupant or investor. Could easily be converted to single family home as well, either now or in the future. The lower unit (1st, 2nd, and basement) is a 2 bedroom plus large office. Beautiful woodwork and character. High ceilings. Original hardwood floors with inlaid detail. Gas fireplace. Great outdoor space--rear deck and patio and lovely front porch. Large, bright, kitchen with tons of cabinets and counter space. Bright dining room. Big basement for storage and mechanicals. The 3rd floor is a spacious, bright, and lovely 1 bedroom apartment, which is separate with a private entrance. This apartment can be totally separate or attach to the 2nd floor of the lower unit or could be opened up and made fully part of the lower residence. You could create a gorgeous 5 bedroom single family home (now or whenever you are ready. In the meantime, live on one of the nicest blocks in the Spruce Hill neighborhood and collect rent from the other unit). A+ location in the Penn Alexander Catchment.
