Welcome to 1225 Christian St, a spacious updated single-family home located in the very desirable Bella Vista neighborhood. This home offers a 16 ft wide layout with 2,100 sqft. of living space, 4 nice sized bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a partially finished basement, making it perfect for families to live in or for investors looking for a great rental property to add to their portfolio. Renovated in 2007, with additional upgrades made in 2012, and 2023, this property currently serves as a profitable and highly sought-after rental home. There are many highlights that make this property special. Enjoy a warm and sunny southern exposure with an open and airy floor plan in the large first floor living room, adjoining the main living area is a spacious kitchen with wood cabinets, marble counters, nice sized dining area, and a convenient full laundry space. A large private fenced-in back yard patio space is accessed from the kitchen, perfect for hanging out with friends and family for outdoor parties and barbeques. Below is a partially finished full-length basement that can be used for an office or hobby room with plenty of storage space and easy access to maintain utilities and plumbing. Head up the wooden staircase to the 2nd floor, where you will find 2 bedrooms with built in closet spaces and a full bath. The 3rd floor similarly boasts another 2 bedrooms, a full bath, and additionally provides easy walk out access to a spacious full length rear terrace deck with a really nice view of the downtown city skyline. There is a newer well-maintained HVAC system in the home and the water heater is only a few years old. The pitched roof on this home provides for better longevity and drainage than most flat-roofed systems you typically find in a Philadelphia center city town house. Located only a few blocks from the historic 9th Street Italian Market section of Bella Vista, this home is surrounded by favorite neighborhood cafes and restaurants, live music venues, the Ave of The Arts, specialty food markets, coffee houses, and is close to the Broad Street subway line and South Street attractions. One other advantage to owning in this neighborhood is that the permitted on-street parking isn’t as hard to find as many other areas of the city. 1225 Christian St is currently tenant occupied and under lease agreement until April 2025. It currently rents for $3,050 per month. The sellers are motivated and open to considering all offers. Don't hesitate to seize this chance to make this excellent property your own!

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
