Improvements already completed include interior demolition, framing, new second-floor bathroom plumbing, a new bathtub and drain lines, and an expanded basement stair opening. The spacious basement offers excellent potential for additional finished living space. Additional features include an enclosed front porch, concrete front yard, and concrete rear yard. Conveniently located near University City, UPenn, Drexel University, major hospitals, public transportation, shopping, dining, parks, and Center City Philadelphia. Ideal for investors, contractors, or owner-occupants looking to add value in a rapidly developing area. Easy to show. Seller is a licensed Pennsylvania real estate agent. Terms negotiable.
