About This Home

As of July 2020

This totally renovated, turnkey duplex is a great option for investors and owner-occupants alike. An ideal location that's convenient to public transportation and amenities, finishes that will make vacancies easy to fill, and a recent complete renovation that will minimize the headache and expense of future repairs all make this one a no-brainer. Each unit features gray-hued floors, painted white brick accent walls, recessed lighting, tastefully and totally revamped kitchens and baths, Euro-style zoned air conditioning and in-unit laundry. Both kitchens feature white Shaker-style cabinets, gray quartz countertops and GE stainless steel appliances--and yes, they have dishwashers. The bathrooms are nicely appointed with ceramic tile shower surrounds, frameless glass doors and low-profile, flat-front floating white vanities. The larger downstairs unit features three spacious bedrooms--two are on the main level along with private access to the patio with an awesome deck for grilling and outdoor dining. The lower level offers additional living space along with a private third bedroom. The upstairs unit has two bedrooms and an open-floorplan living space. The front bedroom features a pretty bay window, while the second bedroom has two large windows and both enjoy good closet space. This fabulous property is in a convenient location near schools, SEPTA, Morris Rec Center, the Free Library and shopping centers, and just minutes from Cobbs Creek Park, with its biking and hiking trails, baseball, basketball and ice skating rink.
