Listing Description

End-of-Row Gem with Duplex Potential - Bring Your Vision! (1020 S 57th Street) This end-of-row townhouse in a desirable West Philadelphia subdivision offers the perfect blend of traditional architectural charm and massive "value-add" potential. Whether you are an investor looking for your next project or a first-time homeowner ready to build sweat equity, this property is a diamond in the rough waiting to be polished.

The home features three spacious bedrooms and a thoughtful layout, including a partially finished walkout basement with internal garage access-ideal for a home office, gym, or secondary living area. Buyers are encouraged to confirm with the city, as the layout and location may allow for conversion into a duplex, making this a prime income-generating opportunity.

The exterior boasts a welcoming deck for outdoor living, an attached garage, and a rare brick driveway for ample off-street parking. The property is being sold as-is and needs work, including the repair of active leaks in the kitchen and bathroom. Perfectly situated less than a mile from major bus lines, ensuring a quick commute and easy access to local Philadelphia amenities.

Rarely do you find a property with these "bones", end-of-row privacy, off-street parking, and a walkout basement-at this price point. With a little TLC and a clear vision, this home is ready to be transformed into a modern residence or a lucrative multi-unit investment. Don't miss out on this chance to own a piece of Philadelphia's potential!
