Property Description

EXCEPTIONAL FISHTOWN LOCATION for a mixed-use property, well-positioned along Girard Avenue where steady foot traffic meets everyday neighborhood living. This well-maintained duplex offers two income-producing units—one commercial and one residential—creating a balanced investment with immediate cash flow and long-term appeal. UNIT #1 – Commercial (Street Level) The street-level commercial space enjoys strong visibility along Girard Ave and is currently leased to a neighborhood-favorite nail salon. Inside, the space blends character with functionality, featuring hardwood floors, an exposed brick wall, and large front windows that bring in natural light and showcase the business to passing foot traffic. The layout includes a raised front entry, additional rooms toward the rear, a generously sized bathroom with storage shelving, and direct access to a small back patio. An unfinished basement provides substantial storage space, adding flexibility for a variety of business uses. UNIT #2 – Residential (Upper Levels) The residential unit is a bright, bi-level one-bedroom apartment with its own private entrance and a loft-inspired design. Exposed brick, hardwood floors, and high ceilings give the space warmth and architectural interest, while oversized windows fill the home with natural light. The main level features a spacious living area and an eat-in kitchen with ample cabinetry, a gas range, dishwasher, and in-unit laundry. Upstairs, the bedroom offers soaring ceilings, a large walk-in closet, and an airy, open feel that sets it apart from a typical one-bedroom layout. A generously-sized bathroom with modern finishes completes the space. PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS: Fully-occupied mixed-use duplex with consistent rental income.
