About This Home
Investor alert or ideal house-hack opportunity in booming Port Richmond—welcome to 2842 Cedar Street, a charming corner duplex with strong vintage appeal. This unique property features two one-bedroom apartments, each with separate utilities (gas and electric; the second floor is electric-only), offering flexibility and income potential. The first-floor unit boasts soaring ceilings, wood floors, and access to a private yard with inside basement access and laundry. The upstairs unit includes a second-story deck off the kitchen and indoor bike storage. If desired, the 2nd-floor tenant could access the laundry in the basement using the Bilco doors in the yard. Located steps from Powers Park, the Port Richmond Library, and favorites like Ellie and Bird Coffee, Nemi, and iconic Tacconelli’s Pizza, with quick access to I-95, less than a mile to the Somerset Market-Frankford El station stop. Recent updates include a new sewer line and updated gas lines (both inside the home), as well as new siding for the 2nd-floor bay window—perfect for buyers looking to live in one unit and rent the other, or add to their portfolio in a thriving neighborhood.
