Description
This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from May 30, 2023
This 3-unit multi-family opportunity with four car garage is on 12th Street between Locust and Spruce. The building runs from 12th Street, where the storefront was converted to a residential unit, to the quaint Sartain Street, where the two upstairs units are entered through the garage and center courtyard. The three residential units have all been recently updated and are in good condition. Currently, the area above the garage is a beautifully maintained outdoor garden but, with RM1 zoning, remains an opportunity for extending the property an additional two floors. The double wide, double deep garage currently accommodates four cars stacked. The property is extremely well located, steps from Penn Hospital, Jefferson University Hospital, the 13th St commercial corridor, Avenue of the Arts and Washington Square.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageCurrently I have a middle school student graduating from McCall this spring and I had two older sons graduate in 2018 and 2020. McCall Elementary school is a wonderful school and the teachers and staff are outstanding. I recommend this school to anyone that has a child in the Center City catchment. My students did well in this diverse community and participated in extra curricular activities run by the teachers and staff. The years at McCall instilled in my children the love of learning and the importance of doing their best work. We will miss this community!Parent Review1y ago - Franklin Benjamin High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI love my school. It's extremely supportive and our principle is the best in Philadelphia. He has really turned our school around. Compared to our surrounding schools, I believe our school stands out. We have excellent programs that keeps student busy and off the streets. Our test scores are truly rising. Our teachers really care about our education. They put their all into them lesson plans. Most people would look at our school and see it for what it use to be not what it's become. In my opinion, my school is the best. It's extremely diverse in several ways. Come visit us :)!!!!Student Review13y ago
