About This Home

As of March 2016

This is a perfect investment opportunity: a renovated rowhome with established rental history in Grays Ferry. With smart upgrades made by the current owner like new electric, water heater and hardwood floors on the main level, this is your chance to snag a still-affordable-for-now piece of this area. In addition to residential development in nearby Point Breeze, two major development projects nearby, for CHOP and the Lanier Park and Playground, were recently approved. The location is ideal for a quick commute to University City, UPenn, CHOP, Grays Ferry Crescent Trail Park and access to I-76 and I-95. Property is sold as-is. The property is currently rented for $675 per month. Tenant is on a month to month lease.
