Welcome to 992 N 5th St., a remarkable duplex opportunity in Northern Liberties! Live in one of the units, and rent out the other. This building proudly features thoughtful elements in its appearance: exposed brick, exterior barn lighting, cedar wood siding, and a newly-pointed slate awning make it stand out. Tenants enjoy two separate entrances. Enter Unit 1 on the right (which is bi-level) to see beautifully restored pine plank flooring, ample living and kitchen space, and a convenient half bath. The double glass sliders in the rear open to a large outdoor area, which the tenants of Unit 1 get to enjoy privately. Unit 1 has access to a full, dry storage basement. Up the stairs in the same unit are three large bedrooms and two updated full bathrooms. Unit 2 is entered through the left door of the building. This 1-bedroom apartment gives a loft feel with high ceilings, concrete slab countertops, and wooden rafters. Ductless mini-splits and tankless hot water heater boast modernity despite the rustic character. As for this building's location: it's hard to beat! You're a quick walk from all things Fishtown/Northern Liberties, especially the sought-after Girard/Frankford corridor. Bus routes, subway access, and parks are nearby. This opportunity is fantastic for an owner-occupant looking to make the leap into real estate investment, or for a seasoned investor looking to add an income-producing asset to their portfolio. We can't wait to have to you come by!
