About this home
Multi Family · Built 1915 · Historic
1229 S 6th Street presents a prime mixed-use investment opportunity in Philadelphia’s highly sought-after Passyunk Square neighborhood. This well-maintained corner property features a ground-floor commercial space and three fully occupied 1-bedroom/1-bath residential units above, generating approximately $61,800 in current annual income (6.6% cap rate) following after rent increases that take effect April 1. The ground-floor commercial storefront offers strong visibility and steady tenancy. Each residential unit is separately metered and features updated kitchens and baths, hardwood floors, and a consistent rental history, making this a stable, income-producing asset. Zoned CMX-2, the property allows for flexible mixed-use occupancy and long-term value appreciation.
