    Overview

    This Brookhaven 2+2 duplex offers a spacious, functional layout designed for everyday living. The first floor is vacant and has been freshly painted and newly carpeted. Both units feature large living and dining rooms, kitchens with ample counter and cabinet space, and included appliances. Each unit also provides two bedrooms with closet space and a three-piece hall bath. The property includes a huge yard for outdoor entertaining and a dedicated laundry and storage area for both units.

    The home is located at 3978 Carteret Drive in Philadelphia, PA 19114, on a lot size of 0.1062 acres. On-site parking is supported by a two-car garage and a two-car driveway. The seller notes that a tenant on the second floor would like to remain, subject to transfer at sale. Please plan for a previous day notice requirement for showings.

    For buyers seeking an owner-occupant setup or a straightforward rental arrangement, this configuration allows one level to be moved into while maintaining income from the other unit. The first floor’s move-in condition reduces immediate renovation needs, while the shared property amenities like the yard and dedicated laundry/storage area help keep day-to-day life convenient for both occupants.
