With about 5 years remaining on the tax abatement, this oversized modern unit delivers a great mix of space, style, and practicality. You can enter through the shared hallway or take advantage of your own private rear entrance, which opens into a bright, airy living and dining area with dark hardwood floors and a true open-concept layout. The living space is generously sized, giving you plenty of room to set up a full seating area without feeling tight, and the natural light really makes it feel inviting and comfortable. It flows seamlessly into the kitchen, making it an ideal setup for everyday living or entertaining. The kitchen itself is built for both cooking and hosting, featuring quartz countertops, a large island with seating, and plenty of cabinet space for storage.

Downstairs, you’ll find high ceilings throughout, along with a Samsung washer and dryer, a nicely sized first bedroom with an egress window and walk-in closet, a full hall bath and linen storage. The second bedroom serves as generous primary suite complete with a built-in closet, french doors leading to an outdoor space, and its own full bathroom. Tucked away in the rear of the building, the unit offers a quiet, private feel, with southern exposure bringing in great natural light all day.

From an investment standpoint, this property checks a lot of boxes—remaining tax abatement, strong rental demand, and steady appreciation in the area. The location puts you right in the mix, with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and public transit, plus you're just a short walk to Fishtown, Temple University, Northern Liberties, and the Market-Frankford Line at Berks Station.
