Property Description
Unrivaled Value Proposition in Bridesburg. 5322 James Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully detached single-family residence in a neighborhood defined by high-density row homes. This isn't just a renovation project; it is a strategic acquisition of one of the area's most scarce assets: a substantial 1,513 sq/ft masonry structure complemented by an oversized detached two-car garage. The heavy lifting has already begun with a newly installed roof (2024), providing immediate structural integrity for the duration of your build-out. Positioned on an expansive footprint, this property offers the square footage and detached status required to achieve a premium After-Repair Value (ARV) that standard local comps simply cannot attain. Being offered strictly in As-Is condition. Buyer is responsible for all municipal certifications and the City of Philadelphia U&O. For the discerning developer looking to capitalize on Bridesburg's appreciating market, this is the premier choice for your next portfolio addition.
