Property Description

Looking for a high-potential investment property in a prime location? This Craftsman-style residence in the Downingtown Borough is a unique opportunity for multi-family investors. Zoned R4 and offering flexible use, the property includes two rentable spaces, making it ideal for a full investment conversion or a mixed-use portfolio asset. The main structure includes a 5-bedroom, 2-bath unit full of charm and historic character—ideal for long-term or short-term rental. A separate 700SF space with a private entrance can function as a 1-bed, 1-bath efficiency rental or a small business unit. Additional features include eight off-street parking spaces, a stone-covered rear yard (which could be converted to additional parking, green space, or tenant recreation), and multiple decks that enhance livability and appeal. French doors open to a private deck off the office space, and the primary bedroom office includes a second deck, perfect for work-from-home renters. Located within walking distance to Downingtown Borough’s shops, dining, and parks, and just minutes to Routes 30, 100, and 202, this property is also in the top-rated Downingtown Area School District—an added draw for quality tenants. With its flexible zoning, strong rental history, and desirable location, this is a rare multi-family investment opportunity with built-in value and future upside.
