BACK ON THE MARKET! Great price for this Roxborough/Manayunk 2 unit - that is UNDER market rents! First floor unit is a spacious 2 BR, 1 bath (3 floors plus basement) with cozy front porch, and full unfinished basement for storage and laundry. Second floor has separate entrance in rear and is a clean, ready to rent 1 BR, 1 Bath efficiency apartment. A spacious back yard can be shared by tenants for summer barbecues. Utilities are separated, except water. Rents for both units are currently BELOW MARKET RATE, so with a little updating, these rents could easily be increased in this HOT Roxborough/Manayunk Area.
