Have a big family and want to live in Northern Liberties? Presenting the only available 6-bedroom house on an impressive 89-foot-deep and you can get it for under 500k. Currently tenant-occupied until July 31, 2025, at $2,850/mo. 3D tour available! There's a reason why this neighborhood has been rapidly appreciating. Within walking distance, you'll find popular restaurants, cozy cafes, grocery stores, unique boutique shops, tennis courts, and parks. The Piazza and Liberty Lands Park, just a 10-minute walk away, offer relaxing outdoor spaces, live events, and opportunities to meet neighbors. Entertainment options, such as North Bowl and Johnny Brenda’s, contribute to the area's vibrant nightlife and social scene. Beyond dining, Northern Liberties is celebrated for its rich culture and artistic atmosphere, boasting local galleries, creative hubs along N 3RD Street, and unique landmarks that enhance the community's charm. Residents enjoy easy commuting via SEPTA’s Market–Frankford Line and bike-friendly streets. The neighborhood thrives on its community spirit, evident in regular farmers markets, festivals, and year-round events, appealing to both residents and investors. Built in 1920, this exceptionally spacious single-family home covers nearly 2,300 square feet, offering a rare 6-bedroom layout with bathrooms conveniently located on both the second and third floors. Situated on a sizable lot (89 feet deep and 19 feet wide), the home features a huge backyard ideal for family gatherings and peaceful outdoor enjoyment. When you enter the house, you’ll see the open-floor layout, which is perfect for entertainment. There is also a beautiful glass feature separating living & dining areas. Facing west, the living room is bathed in natural light during golden hour, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that is complemented by hardwood floors. The kitchen, while older, has gas connections, which true cooking enthusiasts prefer. With minimal investment, such as adding a peninsula and upgrading appliances, the kitchen can be completely transformed. The second and third floors have similar layouts, each featuring a small rear bedroom, a medium-sized middle room, a bathroom, and a spacious front bedroom. The home includes central heating, window-unit air conditioning, and a washer and dryer in the basement. Yes, this property will need updates to achieve its full potential—primarily in the bathrooms, kitchen finishes, and some paint touch-ups—which is reflected in the price. However, after these improvements, you’ll own one of the largest homes in the area, having already built considerable sweat equity and positioning yourself to benefit from the neighborhood's ongoing appreciation.
