Description

Excellent opportunity to own a beautifully maintained, fully updated three-unit multifamily property in the heart of Glenside, PA. This property offers unmatched convenience, just a two-minute walk to the Glenside train station, making commuting to Center City Philadelphia simple and highly appealing to tenants. Everything was completely redone in 2011, and the building has been very well maintained since, leaving nothing to do but collect rent or move in and enjoy. Each unit is separately metered for gas and electric, providing straightforward utility management for investors or owner-occupants. The seller currently pays for water, sewer, trash, lawn care, and snow removal, with all expense documentation to be uploaded this coming week for complete transparency. The building offers two spacious one-bedroom units, both currently on month-to-month leases, with rents increasing in September to $1,175. Tenants have already been made aware of this adjustment, ensuring stable income moving forward. The first-floor unit is a two-bedroom layout; while the bedrooms are a bit modest in size, it's flexible enough to serve as a traditional two-bedroom or a one-bedroom plus home office, with the second room able to accommodate a single bed. This unit has an expected rental value of approximately $1,400 per month and could be perfect for an owner-occupant looking to offset expenses with tenant income or as a solid addition to any investment portfolio. Inside, everything is in excellent shape, reflecting the pride of ownership and ongoing maintenance. The basement is well-organized with secure storage cages for tenants, adding valuable amenities rarely found in similar properties. The first-floor two-bedroom unit also enjoys its own covered porch, offering appealing private outdoor space. Parking is no problem, with a private driveway accommodating three cars (one for each unit) and plenty of additional on-street parking available with a local permit. Located in desirable Glenside, this property benefits from a vibrant, walkable neighborhood known for its welcoming community and small-town feel. Just steps from shopping, cafes, restaurants, and the charming Keswick Village area, home to the historic Keswick Theatre, boutique shops, and local events year-round. Glenside’s reputation for excellent schools, established tree-lined streets, and strong sense of community make it one of Montgomery County’s most sought-after locations for both renters and homeowners alike. This is truly a turnkey investment or a perfect live-in opportunity in one of the area’s best locations. Don’t miss the chance to own this exceptional property in Glenside.
