The existing building offers approximately 6,410 square feet and is currently configured as four commercial units, providing flexibility for immediate income, repositioning, or conversion. The layout also allows for potential consolidation into a larger single-user footprint if desired. This is where the opportunity truly stands outzoning supports increased density, and based on the size and configuration, the site offers the potential for approximately 1520 residential units (buyer to perform their own due diligence and verify zoning/use).

A standout feature is the curb cut along 49th Street, providing on-site parking for approximately eight vehicles, with the potential to expand or reconfigure depending on the final designan increasingly rare advantage for properties of this scale. Positioned directly along Chester Avenue, the property is catty-corner from SEPTA Regional Rail and situated on a trolley line, offering seamless access to University City, Center City, and beyond.
