5520-22 Harbison Avenue - Exceptional Development Opportunity Presenting the iconic St. Bartholomew's Convent Building, a rare marquee development opportunity in the heart of Northeast Philadelphia. Situated on approximately 0.55 acres, the property offers a generous open area fronting Harbison Avenue along with a fully fenced, paved parking lot at the rear. The existing structure spans 20,151 square feet and is primed for redevelopment. Zoned RSA-3, the site allows for a variety of redevelopment possibilities. Notably, nearby properties have successfully secured zoning variances that expanded their development potential-offering buyers an exciting opportunity to explore creative uses. In 2019, the Seller obtained zoning and building permits to redevelop the property into office space and single-room occupancy units with a commercial kitchen. Those plans will be included in the sale for interested parties. This is a rare chance to reimagine and repurpose a landmark property in the rapidly growing Northeast Philadelphia market.
