Rare opportunity to own a special property on a most desirable tree-lined block. 2042 Rittenhouse is currently set up as a 3-unit building with first floor commercial office space and two residential apartments on floors 2 and 3. Its flexible CMX-1 zoning offers several potential uses--The property could become (1) a single-family townhome, with superb character and light; (2) a residential multi-unit with an owner’s residence and one or two income-generating spaces; (3) a fabulous triplex for investors; (4) perfect for multi-generational living; or (5) the perfect live-work space with office space and residential above (with separate entrances for the residential and commercial). This property has by-right roof deck potential either as a south-facing 3rd-floor walk-out or via a 4th-floor pilot house. Opportunity to expand the 3rd floor interior square footage as well. 2042 Rittenhouse has spectacular bones and a deep lot but does need renovation/updating. On one of Center City’s most charming blocks. Convenient to everything. GARAGE PARKING available within one block.
