On a tree-lined premier Powelton Village block in University City, West Philly, this 3-story, 3400++ sf twin is legally zoned for 2-family use. Converted many years ago, it features a first floor 2BR, 1 bath rental apartment plus an upper unit designed for an owner-occupant. The bilevel owners unit has a large living room open to its adjacent kitchen plus 5 additional rooms which can be whatever you want - bedrooms, work-at-home spaces, perhaps a library or a family room. There are 3 full baths, and a little second floor deck off of the living room has steps giving access down to the secluded rear yard._____ Described in the Powelton Village Community Association’s neighborhood history as a “Second Empire style double” circa 1875, the house retains many original features: woodwork, hardwood flooring, decorative marble mantles and the “split level” staircases & hallways of its era. The owner restored the front porch so that it once again is a great outdoor space overlooking the front garden & the block._____ Currently unoccupied, the property offers multiple possibilities for its next owners. A first-time buyer could move into the smaller unit and maximize income from the larger unit to help pay down the mortgage - or, move into the large upper unit and use the 2BR apartment’s rent toward the mortgage. Or, the extra apartment can house relatives or an au pair. If the buyer later wants more space, they need only to open a few hallway doors to use the entire house themselves._____ Powelton Village’s historic buildings were added to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places in 2022, forever protecting this beautiful neighborhood from future tear-downs. Plus, the location is in the catchment area for the recently built Samuel Powel K-4 grade school and Science Leadership Academy Middle School. Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania are an easy walk, and abundant public transportation options can take riders to center city and beyond.
