Property Description

Opportunity knocks at 5829 N 21st St! A classic Philadelphia row home priced to move at $75,000 and ready for the right buyer to bring it back to life. Whether you're an investor looking to add to your portfolio or an owner-occupant with a vision, this is the kind of deal that doesn't come around often in today's market. The bones are solid and the big-ticket items have already been addressed; a newer roof (2022) and a replaced gas furnace (2023) mean you can focus your budget where it counts most. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, waiting to be refinished and restored to their original character. The cosmetic work needed here is exactly the kind of value-add that creates equity fast. What truly sets this property apart is the garage and the potential to add a driveway, off-street parking is a rare find in the city and a genuine selling point for future tenants or buyers alike. Add in the full basement for additional storage or future finishing potential, and you have a versatile property with multiple paths to return on investment. Priced at $75,000, the numbers work. Bring your contractor, bring your vision, and come see what's possible on N 21st St in the heart of East Oak Lane.
