Live, Rent, or Build – Versatile 2-Family Near Fordham with Future Potential

Welcome to 2419–2421 Southern Blvd—a rare opportunity for first-time buyers, owner-occupants, and savvy investors. This unique 2-family property is configured as two townhouse-style duplexes, each with its own private entrance and backyard access. Live in one unit and rent the other, or lease both for immediate income—either way, this is a flexible, smart investment in a high-growth area.

Each unit features a spacious, private layout with no shared interior space, making it ideal for multi-generational living or easy rental management. The property sits just steps from Fordham University, the Bronx Zoo, and the Botanical Gardens—drawing strong rental demand year-round, particularly from students seeking off-campus housing.

Zoned R7-1 and offering over 6,400 sq ft of unused FAR (floor area ratio), the property also presents future development potential. Preliminary concepts suggest the possibility of a 4–5 story building (subject to approvals). Whether you're building long-term wealth or securing your first home with income-producing potential, this property delivers value now and upside later.
