Positioned in a Just minutes away from Saint Joseph's University campuses, making it an ideal off-campus housing target for students, faculty, or staff. Follow the proven blueprint of other successful buildings on the block and convert this massive footprint into a 3 to 4-unit multi-family income-producing asset. Vision 2: The Fix-and-Flip With comparable renovated properties commanding strong resale figures in the immediate area, a full-scale cosmetic and structural modernization will unlock the immense equity hidden inside this spacious 7-bedroom, 3-bathroom envelope.
