This University City duplex in the Cedar Park neighborhood of West Philly is an ideal home for an owner-occupant, and it's available for move-in now. The heart of the renovated 3 bedrooms/2 baths, 2.5 story upper apartment is the second floor: a recent cook's kitchen open to a sitting or dining area, an all-seasons sunroom overlooking the back yard, a full bath, and the living room. Upstairs on the third floor, there's a main bedroom suite with a walk-in closet and a sumptuous new bath, plus 2 additional bedrooms. Below, on the first floor, is the entry area plus a family room, laundry and fenced rear yard. At the front of the house on the first floor, there's an almost-brand-new 1 bedroom apartment which is also available for occupancy now. It works well as a relative or au pair's totally private quarters - or put it to work as a year-round rental or Airbnb and use the income to help pay the mortgage! Both kitchens and 2 of the baths were new in the past few years, and the owners also made many other repairs and upgrades. The view from front windows is of leafy little Beaumont Avenue to the east, yet the location is only 1.5 blocks away from Baltimore Avenue, Cedar Park's "main street," known for its eclectic restaurants, shops & bars. Two public green spaces, Cedar Park and Clark Park, are close by. And if you want to venture farther, hop on the trolley: the ride to center city takes only 15 minutes, stopping at UPenn, Drexel U and the 30th St. transportation hub along the way.
