COMING SOON. ACTIVE THIS FRIDAY 6/27/25 | Welcome to Elmwood on the boundary of Southwest Philadelphia. It is my distinguished honor & privilege to present to you 2847 S. 65th St. This 4 bedrooms/ 2 full bathroom house features an extended designated driveway for accessible & convenient parking, along with a front porch with an awning that provides privacy and an open seating area where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of this vibrant and delightful neighborhood. Open the door into an open living room & dining room with extended windows that brings in illuminating natural light that radiates throughout the house. The hardwood floors bring out natural beauty of the hardwood. The kitchen features an open space & stainless steel appliances. Upstairs are 3 spacious bedrooms and a bathroom. This is a 3 story building where the main floor is on the 2nd level and there is technically no below grade basement. On the ground level from the driveway is a garage door that leads into a lower level that provides additional living space that could be used as a separate apartment or in-law suite. ZONING & USE: This property is zoned RM-1, Residential mixed, which allows for multi-unit dwellings by right. You can legally rent out the 1st floor as a separate apartment since there is a full bathroom with a standup shower & the potential to add a kitchen. Some homeowners in these blocks have converted their garages into additional interior residential square footage by removing the garage partition doors & creating an Open Concept 1st floor level. You could also keep this space for yourself and have a 2nd living space or extension unit where you can place your in-laws or grown children that just won't leave so you can maintain privacy and independence. Other features include laundry hookup, a serene & quiet backyard with gardening where you can spend your summer days grilling and enjoy the functionality of the backyard space, which has an unobstructed alleyway that lead into Passyunk Ave., an industrial & commercial corridor with investments & multi-modal development. This property is well priced and there are strong comparables in the area. This house is located in an emerging neighborhood that borders Passyunk Ave, the intermediary corridor that connects Southwest Philadelphia to South Philly and many important destinations, including Philadelphia's International Airport, sports stadiums, bridges to New Jersey, I-95 to the Delaware River, Bartram's Garden, John Heinz Wildlife refuge, commercial mixed use corridors, and the boundaries of boroughs and townships in Delaware County. Southwest Philadelphia is an area full of vitality, multiculturalism, and diverse residential real estate for any type of buyer. Thank you for your time and we look forward to serving your real estate needs. You can trust that we will ensure a professional and respectful & equitable process for all potential buyers and we look forward to doing business with you.
