Overview

This well-maintained 1,980-square-foot mixed-use duplex features two distinct units. The first-floor commercial unit is currently operated as a hair salon, with access and space suited to customer-facing use. The second-floor unit is presently used as office space, and the layout allows for a potential conversion to a 2-bedroom residential apartment if desired.

The property is located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (19133) at 2522 N 5TH Street. Both units are fully occupied by long-term tenants, with lease termination scheduled by April 2026. This provides a defined near-term transition point for an owner looking to reposition the property or adjust the mix of retail and living space.

For buyers, the asset offers a practical mixed-use configuration: a ground-floor tenant type that supports day-to-day business activity and an upper level currently configured for professional use. For investors or owner-operators, the duplex format and unit flexibility may support multiple operating scenarios after the April 2026 lease end date, including continuing the existing use mix or preparing the second level for residential occupancy.
