About this home
Prime Temple University Development Opportunity | Zoned RM-1 | Seller Financing Available
Positioned directly on Temple University’s campus at the corner of Oxford and Temple, 1414 W Oxford St is a high-visibility corner property formerly utilized as a commercial space, now ready to be reimagined into a dynamic residential investment.
Surrounded by established multi-unit buildings and located directly across from Temple’s AMC Theater, this property sits in one of North Philadelphia’s strongest rental corridors, fueled by consistent student demand and proximity to Center City.
Currently zoned RM-1, this property offers by-right duplex potential, making it an ideal opportunity for developers or investors looking to create high-performing residential units in a location where vacancy is rarely a concern.
What makes this property stand out:
Soaring 15-foot ceilings, perfect for bi-level or loft-style apartments
Existing structure allows for vertical expansion—unlock the ability to build upward
Ideal layout to remove the roof, add a staircase, and create two bi-level units
Previously used commercially, offering flexibility and design inspiration for adaptive reuse
Flanked by multi-unit buildings, reinforcing the highest and best use as residential density
Endless development possibilities:
Design two bi-level, loft-style apartments tailored to Temple’s student population
Create modern duplex units with dramatic ceiling heights and open layouts
Explore a variance opportunity for commercial on the first floor + two residential units above
Develop a high-demand rental asset in a proven student housing ecosystem
This is a true value-add opportunity where the structure, zoning, and location align perfectly for a visionary buyer. With the ability to build upward and maximize livable square footage, the potential here is significant.
Seller financing available, offering a flexible and attractive pathway for investors looking to move quickly while preserving capital.
Opportunities like this—on-campus, corner exposure, surrounded by density, and primed for vertical development—are increasingly rare.
Bring your architect. Design with intention. Build for demand....
