You can legally rent out the 1st floor as a separate apartment since there is a full bathroom with a standup shower & the potential to add a kitchen. Some homeowners in these blocks have converted their garages into additional interior residential square footage by removing the garage partition doors & creating an Open Concept 1st floor level. You could also keep this space for yourself and have a 2nd living space or extension unit where you can place your in-laws or grown children that just won't leave so you can maintain privacy and independence. Other features include laundry hookup, a serene & quiet backyard with gardening where you can spend your summer days grilling and enjoy the functionality of the backyard space, which has an unobstructed alleyway that lead into Passyunk Ave., an industrial & commercial corridor with investments & multi-modal development. This property is well priced and there are strong comparables in the area. This house is located in an emerging neighborhood that borders Passyunk Ave, the intermediary corridor that connects Southwest Philadelphia to South Philly and many important destinations, including Philadelphia's International Airport, sports stadiums, bridges to New Jersey, I-95 to the Delaware River, Bartram's Garden, John Heinz Wildlife refuge, commercial mixed use corridors, and the boundaries of boroughs and townships in Delaware County.
