About This Home
Welcome to 1822 N Van Pelt St — your rare opportunity to own a 6 bed, 2.5 bath, 2,700 sqft home PLUS an adjacent empty lot (list price does not include lot - inquire for details if interested) in Philadelphia’s rapidly growing Sharswood neighborhood! Whether you’re searching for your first home (ask how this home qualifies for up to $30,000 in grants and assistance for first-time Buyers), your next home, or a smart investment, this property checks all the boxes. Previously rented for $3,000/month, it offers immediate income potential for investors, while its size, layout make, and equity potential makes this home equally appealing for owner-occupants seeking space, flexibility, and long-term value (ask about utilizing the Limited FHA 203(K) Rehab option to finance your upgrades!). Completely renovated in 2018, entrance to the home greets you with generous living areas designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The first floor offers an open floor plan with high ceilings and recessed lighting throughout, a large eat-in kitchen, a convenient half-bath, and a dining area in the rear. With six bedrooms and two full baths through the second and third floors, the possibilities are endless—create dedicated home offices, guest suites, a gym, or multi-generational living arrangements. For investors, the strong rental history and proximity to Temple University make this an ideal addition to any portfolio, with consistent demand from students and young professionals. The layout is well-suited for shared living, maximizing rental potential. For homeowners, this is your chance to put down roots in a vibrant, appreciating neighborhood.
