5520 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19139 listing details

This duplex was a gut renovation from top to bottom, with high-quality materials and workmanship throughout: new roof, electrical, plumbing, Anderson windows, hardwood floors, the list goes on. The 1st floor unit has a heated enclosed porch with marble tile floors, which leads to the open floor plan living room/dining room/kitchen with granite countertops, undermount corner sink and five-burner range. The hallway with large closet leads to the ceramic tile bathroom with window, middle bedroom and large rear bedroom with access to the large backyard. The light-flooded 2nd floor unit, with a wide custom-built entry staircase (for easy move-in), has the same basic footprint. The basement is accessible by the landlord from the exterior. This is a great opportunity for an investor looking for a turn-key property, or an owner-occupant who wants rental income to pay down their mortgage. Added bonus: The utilities are all electric, so no PGW bill to deal with, and the building qualifies for a reduced rate from PECO.
