Location, location, location! This two-story corner home is ideally situated in the heart of the Whitman neighborhood and offers outstanding potential for a buyer with vision. With solid bones and largely only cosmetic updates needed, this property is ready to be transformed back into a lovely S. Philly home it once was. Recent sidewalk improvements enhance the block, and the exterior brickwork is in excellent condition. Enter from Tree Street into a spacious living area featuring a convenient half bath, large front window, and access to the basement. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances and ample cabinetry, and leads directly to a generously sized private backyard with rear egress to Front Street, a great bonus for outdoor space and accessibility. Upstairs, you’ll find a full bathroom with original blue and pink tile, a bedroom with a stackable washer and dryer, and carpeting throughout, that is believed to be covering original hardwood floors. The front bedroom is generously sized, filled with natural light from three large windows, and includes two cedar closets. The basement is open and ideal for storage, housing the home’s mechanicals and utilities. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence or an investment opportunity, this property offers excellent upside for the right buyer willing to invest some sweat equity. Conveniently located near I-95, the Snyder shopping center, Lowe’s, IKEA, Target, and many other neighborhood conveniences. Schedule your showing today and explore the possibilities.

Residential Single-Family Attached-5
The RSA, Residential Single-Family Attached districts are primarily intended to accommodate attached and semi-detached houses on individual lots, but may be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types, including detached houses. The districts are also intended to provide a density transition between RSD districts and RM districts. The Zoning Code includes five RSA districts that are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements.
