Welcome to 251 E Haines Street, a compelling investment opportunity located in the Germantown section of Philadelphia. Originally designed as a 3-bedroom, 1-bath, three-story home, this property is now a step above a shell, offering a true blank canvas for a full-scale renovation.

The existing structure provides the framework to reimagine the layout, finishes, and mechanical systems from top to bottom. With three full stories, the footprint allows flexibility to redesign for modern urban living—ideal for maximizing bedroom count, improving flow, or creating open-concept living spaces.

This property is well-suited for a fix-and-flip or buy-and-hold rental strategy, giving investors the chance to build equity through a complete transformation. Located on E Haines Street in Germantown, the home benefits from proximity to major transit routes, neighborhood redevelopment activity, and long-term upside tied to Germantown’s historic housing stock.

Cash, renovation, or construction financing recommended.
Property is being sold as-is.

For investors who understand that the strongest returns are built—not bought—this Germantown project offers a rare opportunity.
