Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This well-maintained two-unit ranchplex offers two separate living arrangements within one property. The first-floor unit includes two bedrooms and one full bath, with a brand-new updated kitchen, new carpeting throughout, and fresh paint for a move-in-ready feel. The second-floor unit features three bedrooms and two full baths, with an updated kitchen and a primary bedroom that includes a private full bath, plus an additional full hall bath.
The property includes a fenced rear yard and two off-street parking spaces located at the rear of the home. It is described as being in the Rhawnhurst area of Philadelphia, with convenience to public transportation, shopping, dining, schools, and houses of worship.
The layout is suited to a range of ownership strategies, including an owner-occupant setup where one unit supports the other, or a straight investment approach as a residential income property. With both units refreshed and distinct in bedroom and bath configuration, it can provide practical flexibility for tenants or buyers looking for a self-contained two-unit structure.
