Property Description
We have all walked into a house and said "If it were mine I'd have done this". Well here is a once in a lifetime opportunity. This is truly a blank slate with all the possibilities you can dream built right in. Located in the heart of Fishtown this gem needs someone who is a dreamer and a doer, could that be you? This is an opportunity for a discerning buyer and/or seasoned renovator. Partially gutted, brick exposed, HVAC, electrical and plumbing updated or exposed and primed for transformation. This property comes with approved structural and architectural plans already in hand. Though if you want something different, now is your time to do it to your exacting standards. Priced to sell quickly and easy to show, set up your tour today. Fortune favors the bold!
