Property Description
2918 French Street presents a value-add opportunity for investors seeking their next Philadelphia project. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath townhouse offers 812 square feet of interior living space with a full basement, providing a strong footprint for renovation and repositioning. The traditional rowhome layout lends itself well to a full rehab, making this property suitable for fix-and-flip, buy-and-hold, or rental portfolio expansion strategies. The home is located in close proximity to parks and recreational areas, adding appeal for future occupants. The surrounding area continues to benefit from infrastructure improvements, including expanded bike lanes and neighborhood bikeways, enhanced transit access, and safety-focused planning efforts. The property sits near a key transit hub with access to multiple SEPTA routes and major highways, supporting commuter demand. The City of Philadelphia is actively partnering with residents on heat-resilience strategies and quality-of-life improvements, with community input guiding ongoing projects. Property is being sold strictly as-is, where-is. Seller will make no repairs. Buyer is responsible for all inspections, certifications, and due diligence. Evaluate the numbers, bring your contractor, and capitalize on the long-term upside in this evolving neighborhood.
