About this home
1221 N 2nd Street | Prime Redevelopment Opportunity at the Nexus of NoLibs, Kensington & Fishtown!
A rare 20-foot wide parcel in a top-notch location! Situated directly at the epicenter where Northern Liberties, Fishtown, and Kensington meet, this multi-story property offers a blank canvas on a 20' wide lot—a true rarity for the area.
With some single-family homes in the neighboring vicinity selling for over $1,000,000, this property presents a substantial development potential. To help spark design inspiration and showcase layout possibilities, three conceptual floor plan options are included for informational purposes only:
Option 1: A single-family layout featuring a dedicated primary suite.
Option 2: A duplex layout configured with three bedrooms per unit.
Option 3: An expanded single-family variation featuring a luxe primary suite and a roof deck.
Note: Conceptual floor plans are provided strictly for illustrative purposes without warranty and are subject to buyer verification. Buyer is strictly responsible for conducting their own due diligence regarding all zoning, permits, structural requirements, municipal approvals, etc.
Original architectural character is anchored throughout the interior, featuring high ceilings, a grand entryway, a sweeping curved staircase rising through the levels, and an upper “studio" illuminated by skylights.
The location offers unparalleled public transit access and neighborhood convenience. The Route 57 bus runs right down 2nd Street, with the Girard Trolley line, the Market-Frankford Line, the Piazza, Acme, and local dining and retail along Frankford, 2nd Street and Girard Avenues all nearby.
A 20-foot wide property with this level of square footage, multi-million dollar comps nearby, and conceptual layout options included presents a rare market opportunity. Please schedule your showing!...
