This multi-family property with two units was built in 2012 from an old two-story commercial property. It would make a great investment property or live in one and rent the other out. It can also be easily converted into a single family by adding a door at the base of the stairs to the second floor. Located in one of the hottest neighborhoods in the city, it straddles the Old Kensington, Fishtown and Northern Liberties neighborhoods. The building retains some of the original features such as lofty ceilings, thick walls, no basement, and oversized windows and doors. There is a townhouse on one side of the property and a historic church, converted to apartments, on the other with a gap in between. The two units are each over 1,000 square feet and have outdoor spaces. The first floor can either be used as a one-bedroom plus den or two bedrooms, each with sliding glass doors to the landscaped patio. This unit has a large bathroom and full-size washer/dryer. The great room includes a large living room with faux fireplace, large storeroom closet, open-plan kitchen, and dining area. The second-floor unit has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The front bedroom has a wall of windows and a large walk-in closet. There is also a large closet in the hallway and a bathroom with a washer and dryer. The great room opens to a kitchen, dining and living rooms. The rear bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, large closet and a wooden deck overlooking the patio with fully grown trees. Hancock is a beautiful tree lined street with ample parking. The Septa stop, Acme grocery store and Starbucks are all on the corner and there are dozens of popular restaurants, shops, and pubs within a few blocks. There are also a number of day care options and gyms nearby. There closest dog park is 1.5 blocks up Hancock Street.
