Property Description
Welcome to 5214 Spruce St., a duplex opportunity in the heart of West Philly. This 2-unit building is perfect for an owner-occupant or seasoned investor. The ornate facade greets as you walk up to the covered shared porch. A sunny vestibule is directly inside, which has two doors (one to each unit). On the left, enter Unit 1 to find a large living area, bright kitchen, 2 full bedrooms, and full bathroom. This unit has laundry facilities, private access to the outdoor space, and a large semi-finished basement (perfect for dry storage or a bonus area). This unit is currently leased. Upstairs (door on the right), find the vacant unit, which features 2 sizeable bedrooms, extra windows throughout, and a spacious kitchen (including island). Both units have warm, inviting finishes throughout. This highly rentable property is situated just a few minutes from Penn, Drexel, Clark Park, and many West Philly/University City hotspots. Multiple bus routes run every 6-10 minutes right nearby (and right out front). Walk to ReAnimator Coffee, Loco Pez, and plenty other shops and amenities on Baltimore Ave. Enjoy grocery stores and parks nearby. 5214 Spruce St. is ready for its next owner - we can't wait to have you visit!
