Property Description
Listed at $220,000
Welcome to 5814 N 15th Street — a home that blends restored charm, modern updates, and one of the strongest equity opportunities you'll find at this price point. For buyers shopping anywhere in the $260–$280K range, this property offers a strategic advantage: purchase at $220K, complete a few straightforward improvements, and you're holding a home that can realistically appreciate toward $300K far sooner than expected.
First Floor — Restored Hardwood + Modern Lighting + Renovated Kitchen
Step inside and the first thing you notice is the beautifully restored hardwood flooring — a major upgrade that brings warmth, character, and continuity throughout the main level. The living room is bright and welcoming, enhanced by new recessed lighting that gives the space a clean, contemporary feel.
The kitchen has been fully renovated with brand‑new Frigidaire appliances (refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and gas stove). The finishes are modern, the layout is efficient, and the space blends seamlessly with the restored floors. It's a first floor that feels both refreshed and timeless.
Second Floor — All Bedrooms + Updated Contemporary Bathroom + Built‑In Equity
All bedrooms are located on the second level, each outfitted with a brand‑new ceiling fan for comfort and efficiency. The bathroom has been updated with a clean, contemporary design — a meaningful improvement that adds both style and value.
The flooring upstairs is the next owner's opportunity. The carpet is clean but visibly worn, and the home is priced with that in mind. Replacing the flooring on the stairs, hallway, and second floor is a simple project that immediately increases the home's value. Whether you choose new carpet or modern vinyl plank, this upgrade alone pushes the property significantly closer to that $300K value range.
Seller‑Funded Oil‑to‑Gas Conversion — Instant Equity + Long‑Term Savings
One of the strongest value adds is already built into the deal:
With an accepted offer, the seller will convert the heating system from oil to gas after settlement — written directly into the Agreement of Sale.
Gas heat increases efficiency, lowers long‑term operating costs, and boosts the home's market value. It's a major upgrade, and it's included at no additional cost to the buyer.
Basement + Garage — More Space, More Upside
The basement is clean, open, and ready for finishing. For any buyer looking to build equity quickly, finishing this space is one of the highest‑return improvements available. Add that to the dedicated garage and additional storage — features increasingly hard to find in the city — and the upside becomes even clearer.
Location + Lifestyle
You're moments from the Olney Transportation Center and the Broad Street Line, offering direct access to Center City. Fairmount Park, I‑95, Broad Street, and Olney Avenue keep commutes simple. ShopRite, ALDI, neighborhood markets, and local staples like Max's Steaks round out the everyday convenience.
Dramatic Equity Close — The Real Opportunity
Listed at $220,000, this home already offers restored hardwood floors, a renovated kitchen and bathroom, recessed lighting, new bedroom ceiling fans, a garage, and a seller‑funded conversion from oil to gas.
But here's the real impact:
With the heating conversion, updated second‑floor flooring, and a finished basement, this home can realistically appreciate toward the $300,000 range — giving buyers in the $275–$280K budget a $300K home almost instantly.
Immediate equity. Long‑term appreciation. A motivated seller. FHA & VA friendly.
5814 N 15th Street is a move‑in‑ready home with a direct path to real, measurable upside — a smart opportunity for buyers seeking comfort, value, and financial advantage.
