About this home
PRIME INVESTOR OPPORTUNITY: High-potential, full-rehab property sitting on desirable street in the heart of Philadelphia's Overbrook neighborhood. Featuring a classic front porch, a generous footprint (approx. 2,736 sq. ft.), a 25x150 backyard accessible by car, this property is tailor-made for an investor ready to capture major upside with 2 possible high yield investment visions:
Vision 1: The Multi-Family Conversion (Cash-Flow Powerhouse). Positioned in a Just minutes away from Saint Joseph’s University campuses, making it an ideal off-campus housing target for students, faculty, or staff. Follow the proven blueprint of other successful buildings on the block and convert this massive footprint into a 3 to 4-unit multi-family income-producing asset.
Vision 2: The Fix-and-Flip With comparable renovated properties commanding strong resale figures in the immediate area, a full-scale cosmetic and structural modernization will unlock the immense equity hidden inside this spacious 7-bedroom, 3-bathroom envelope. Strip it down, reimagine the open-concept layout, upgrade the systems, and capitalize on the premium outdoor space (backyard + rare driveway parking) to flip it to a retail buyer looking for a turnkey home. Surrounded by parks, local shopping and excellent connectivity with quick access to regional public transit lines, local bus routes, major corridors like City Avenue (US-1) and Lancaster Avenue, and easy commutes into Center City or out to the Main Line makes this project even more attractive for owner occupant buyer....
