Overview

This property is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence that was previously configured as a duplex. It is being sold as-is, giving the next owner flexibility to restore it as a multi-family investment or convert it into a single-family home for resale or long-term rental use. Buyers should plan for their own due diligence based on the intended configuration and condition at the time of purchase.

Located at 5905 Haverford Avenue in Philadelphia, the home is described as having convenient access to City Avenue and nearby public transportation. The listing also notes proximity to shopping, dining, schools, and major commuter routes, supporting a tenant and resident lifestyle centered around daily convenience.

For investors, developers, and buyers looking for a value-add project, the primary appeal is the ability to rework the existing duplex layout or pursue a single-family conversion, depending on your underwriting and plan. Because the sale is as-is and the listing directs buyers to verify zoning, permits, and intended use, it is well-suited to purchasers prepared to manage renovation scope, compliance questions, and design decisions.
