About this home
Welcome to 537 N Wanamaker Street, a fully renovated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offering approximately 1,220 square feet of modern, turnkey living. This is a true full-gut renovation with major system upgrades already completed, including new high-efficiency HVAC, new plumbing, new electrical, and new energy-efficient windows.
For owner-occupants, eligible buyers may qualify for $20K–$30K+ in combined grant and lender assistance, potentially allowing for purchase with little to no money required at closing. The home is FHA and VA-friendly, with strong fundamentals, designer finishes, and no major deferred maintenance.
For investors, this property is also a strong cash-flow opportunity. Based on current Section 8 rent standards, this home may qualify for approximately $2,410 per month in voucher-backed rental income, with projected monthly cash flow of approximately $1,150. For buyers new to Section 8 investing, we can also help connect you with an experienced agent who can assist with tenant placement and guide you through the process of securing your first qualified tenant.
The main level features an open, light-filled layout with a modern living and dining area, a convenient powder room, and a chef-inspired kitchen with custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, you’ll find three bright bedrooms and a designer full bathroom with contemporary tilework. The lower level offers clean, usable space ideal for storage, a home gym, or a small office setup.
Located on a quiet block just steps from Carroll Park, this home is minutes from University City, Center City, and public transit.
