What's special
Welcome to 5241 Gainor Road! The possibilities are endless with this property which covers an entire corner (a 14,175 square foot lot!). The home is located in the historic Wynnefield section of Philadelphia that features beautiful tree lined streets and large historical homes. The location gives you the best of both worlds as is it on the edge of both the city and suburb borders. The home is located near St. Joseph's University, Fairmount Park, the stores and eateries along City Line Avenue and Bala Golf Club. The home itself is beautiful and enormous (6140 square feet). It features 11 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and also has a standalone 2 car garage which has been finished to have an additional bedroom. Each bedroom and bathroom in the home is huge. They are large enough for several people to live in each room, no small city bedrooms here. It features a large kitchen, large family room, large living room, a sun room, and attic and tons of rooms that the owner uses for storage. The home features yard on every side of the home and in the rear. More photos and video will be added shortly. The home is perfect for a large or extended family looking to live in the City but also have the feel of the suburbs. The current owners have been using the home as a short term rental option for St. Joseph's University students or their families and as an Air BnB where they can get $100 or more a night. You can easily earn $1200 a night by renting it out this way. The current owners were profiting over $100,000 a year here and the potential to earn even more is there. This home just can't be described fairly, so you must come see it! Schedule a showing today, you don't want to miss this opportunity.
