Description

In the sought-after University City, this property offers a unique opportunity as, by zoning rights, it can be used as a quadriplex despite its current certification for triplex use. It's worth noting that it hasn't operated as a triplex in recent years and has been utilized in a manner that doesn't conform to its zoning designation, indicating that renovations are necessary to revert it to its intended conforming use. This mixed-use building presents a canvas for transformation, featuring a layout that previously accommodated multiple commercial spaces on the ground floor, each with independent access, private restrooms, and two kitchens. The residential aspect includes two expansive one-bedroom apartments located on the second level, accessible via a side staircase. The third level hosts four single-room dwellings, each reachable through a separate entrance from the ground floor. This property is ripe with potential, especially for investors looking to capitalize on strategic updates to enhance its value. Its prime location is just a short stroll from various amenities, including public transport, esteemed local universities (Penn & Drexel), an array of dining options, shopping venues, and entertainment spots. This is a rare chance to own a versatile property in a vibrant neighborhood. Schedule your visit today and explore the possibilities!

    "by knowing who and what is around them at all times it works out by talking to people being friendly most of the time people are normally individualized and when meeting to go somewhere can always ask somebody to depend on them telling you exactly where to go sometimes that doesn't always work out but you know people are people I can't stress that enough sometimes it could be minor ignorance the ones who are lgbtq communities but they're mostly time friendly to the ones that are lgbtq regardless of anything thank you"
