What a rare and remarkable find! Perhaps the prettiest, most fun, most practicle, most conveniently located Triplex in the City! Located in the lovely, bucolic Neighborhood of Historic East Oak Lane, where Philadelphia kisses Montgomery County Suburbs... this Oh-So-Quiet residential enclave of turn-of-the-century dwellings- just couldn't be more picture perfect. Ideal for an Owner Occupant seeking passive income from the stunningly renovated and occupied 2 apartments above- with separate entrance. Fantastic as well for a multi-generational family compound with liveable breathing space and elbow room for everyone. The 1600 sq. ft. generous-sized Garage with heated flex Man Cave/ Art Studio/ Office space- is a remarkable amenity; a full Designer Bath serves the secondary structure. Can you squeeze in 6 cars? There's room for 4 more on the tucked away paved parking area. A charming adjacent Gazebo w/ proud Rooster a' top- creates the ultimate grill & chill outdoor dining stage. An expansive level lawn is ready for a soccer match, with graceful landscaped gardens and artfully planted trees surrounding the festivities. The welcoming Front Porch invites neighborly conversation, and opens to a warm and spacious interior with upgrades evident throughout. 2 first floor Bedrooms, plus LR, plus a double long Dining Room/ Designer Kitchen with a bank of windows to let in the sunshine- it's lovely! Internally connected to the well-maintained Basement w/ private Laundry and tons of dry storage- so convenient. The 2nd and 3rd level apartments are blessfully accessed around the corner on one-way Independence Avenue. Both 2BR, 1B units are wonderfully updated with high ceilings and personal laundry on each level. The first floor ($1750) has just vacated- so Owner Occupancy is available & encouraged. The 2nd unit is currently $1400 & 3rd Unit is $1550- excellent tenants. The additional 1600 sq. ft. Garage has previously rented for $700 (incredible space!). Amazing shopping & restaurants nearby in Elkins Park, Jenkintown & Glenside ( w/ HMart, Trader Joe's, O'Neil's, Wholefoods)- strollable Chestnut Hill is just 15 minutes away.
