About This Home

5905 Houghton St

Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned investor, this beautifully renovated duplex in the coveted Roxborough neighborhood presents a rare and compelling opportunity. Thoughtfully redesigned from top to bottom, this turnkey property offers modern comfort and strong investment appeal in one of Philadelphia’s most in-demand areas. For those entering the market, this is the perfect chance to live in one unit and lease the other—an excellent strategy for offsetting your mortgage and growing equity from the start. Investors will appreciate the immediate rental income and long-term value in a location known for its strong housing demand and limited inventory. Each of the two spacious one-bedroom units has been fully updated and includes separate utilities (with the exception of water), streamlining expenses and providing practical ease for both owner-occupants and tenants. Inside, the open-concept layouts are enhanced by contemporary kitchens with granite countertops featuring clean, stylish finishes and generous living areas designed for both comfort and entertaining. The bedrooms offer a peaceful retreat, boasting ample space and privacy while maintaining a light-filled, welcoming feel throughout. Sunlight pours into every room, creating a warm and uplifting environment. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, this property is nestled in the heart of Roxborough, a neighborhood celebrated for its community feel, charming streetscapes, and close proximity to Center City, parks, trails, and public transit. Whether you're looking to plant roots or expand your real estate portfolio, this duplex is a standout find that won't last long.
