Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1920, this three-story duplex has been converted from an earlier single-family layout and is currently configured with two separate units within the home. The first floor includes an eat-in kitchen, three bedrooms, a full bath, and a spacious family room with a brick fireplace with gas logs. The second and third floors each provide additional kitchen space, multiple bedrooms, and two full baths, supported by a wide interior hallway and original-style architectural details throughout.

The property is in Jenkintown Borough and is described as being directly across from the Jenkintown football field, with the commuter rail station located less than 1 mile away and a bus stop also less than 1 mile away. A large wraparound front porch leads into a vestibule with original double doors and a center hallway.

Outside, the home features a large backyard, a deck with an awning, and a handicap-accessible ramp. Parking is provided via an expansive private driveway with space for approximately ten vehicles, plus a detached two-car garage. The listing notes no current tenant leases in place, and the duplex setup includes two electric meters and two separate gas heaters. The home is in need of updating and cosmetic improvements, and may be suitable for buyers looking to reimagine the configuration.
