Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
5136 Walnut Street is a fully renovated and occupied legal triplex in West Philadelphia, offering a straightforward income setup with three separate rental units. The building contains two studio apartments and one spacious two-bedroom unit, all updated with modern finishes. The property was fully renovated in 2020, including major system improvements such as updated electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, a new roof, vinyl siding, and replacement windows, supporting a low-maintenance ownership experience.
The triplex is located in a convenient, growing West Philadelphia neighborhood with access to University City and public transportation. It is also positioned near neighborhood shopping and local dining, which can be an important factor for tenant demand and rental stability in an income-focused property.
With the units already rented, the property is well suited for investors seeking immediate cash flow rather than a repositioning opportunity. It may also work for an owner-occupant who wants to live in one unit while offsetting expenses with rental income from the remaining apartments. For buyers looking for a renovated multifamily asset with multiple unit types—studios plus a larger two-bedroom—this offering provides a practical, turnkey option.
