About this home
Multi Family · Built 2014
This turnkey duplex is located just off main campus at Temple University — Philadelphia’s largest university by enrollment. Purchase this prime student-housing asset on its own, or as part of the collective package of multifamily properties in the TUSSP (Temple University Spring Semester Portfolio) — which also includes 1507 Oxford, 1614 Sydenham, 1632 Sydenham, 1701 Jefferson and 1808 Berks for a total of six (6) buildings with eighteen (18) units and sixty-four (64 beds). 1612 Sydenham stands side-by-side with 1614 Sydenham, offering two (2) units and eight (8) beds within 2,352 SF of rentable space. This is a turnkey investment opportunity. With newly minted President John Fry at the helm of Temple's renaissance, the North Broad campus is poised to experience monumental transformation over the next decade plus, as evidenced by the growth of Drexel University under Fry's tenure — billions of dollars of active stage real estate developments provide the proof of what's to come at Temple. The time is now to invest — as the old adage goes — "make your money on the buy." Enquire within for financials and building plans.
