Property Description

The property at 405 W Penn Street in Philadelphia's Germantown neighborhood is a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom rowhouse built in 1900. It offers approximately 1,326 square feet of living space, with a full, unfinished basement.. While the home is livable, it probably requires significant upgrades and your renovations. This home has a very large flat usable backyard with a tree for shade. Comparable properties in the area have sold for $280,000-$310,000, indicating potential for value appreciation post-renovation. If you're considering a full rehab, it's advisable to consult with local contractors to obtain accurate estimates for the necessary work. Additionally, exploring financing options tailored for renovation projects could be beneficial as well. This home won't last long!
