Hardwood floors and oversized windows set this fifth-floor two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence apart from the moment you step inside. At 950 square feet, the open floor plan breathes -- living and dining space unfold naturally toward the light, and the kitchen anchors it all with upgraded countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a full suite that includes a dishwasher, ice maker, self-cleaning oven, and built-in microwave. Cooking here feels intentional rather than incidental, the kind of kitchen where a Sunday morning slowly becomes an afternoon without anyone minding.
Each bedroom offers genuine breathing room, and both bathrooms mean the morning routine never requires negotiation. Walk-in closets in each room handle the wardrobe without compromise, and window treatments keep the light exactly where you want it -- flooding in or filtered back, depending on the hour. The in-unit washer and dryer tuck the laundry into your own schedule rather than someone else's, and the garbage disposal keeps cleanup moving. This is a home designed to get out of your way and let you live.
Beyond the front door, Urby Fishtown surrounds you with amenities that extend your living space well past 950 square feet. The roof deck is the kind of place where a weeknight beer stretches into a proper evening -- city skyline, open air, no reservation required. The fitness center keeps the workout in the building rather than the commute, and the dog park means your four-legged housemate has a proper outlet just steps away. The community also offers a clubhouse, a meeting room for when work follows you home, and a picnic area for the warmer months when being outside is its own reward. Elevators serve the building throughout.
Pets are welcome here -- cats and dogs both, with certain breed, size, and number restrictions applying, so prospective residents with animals are encouraged to confirm the specifics before applying.
Step outside and you are immediately inside one of Philadelphia's most textured and walkable neighborhoods. Fishtown has built a reputation on the particular mix of old rowhouse character and new creative energy -- the kind of place where a decades-old corner bar sits comfortably beside a natural wine shop or a chef-driven brunch spot that fills up by nine on a Saturday. Girard Avenue and Frankford Avenue run through the neighborhood's commercial spine, lined with coffee roasters, taquerias, record stores, and restaurants that draw people from across the city. The neighborhood rewards the curious -- every few blocks reveals something worth stopping for, whether that is a new bakery, a vintage shop, or a gallery tucked behind an unmarked door.
When it is time to move beyond the neighborhood, Fishtown's transit connections put the rest of Philadelphia within easy reach. The Market-Frankford Line, one of the city's fastest and most direct transit arteries, links residents to Center City, University City, and points west without the friction of driving or parking. Street parking is available for those who do keep a car, and the neighborhood's grid layout makes biking or walking to adjacent areas like Northern Liberties, Kensington, or Old City entirely practical. The city feels close because it is -- but from up here on the fifth floor, with the windows open and the evening settling in, there is no particular reason to rush anywhere at all. Pricing and availability subject to change on a daily basis. Photos are of model units. Parking may be available subject to availability and may be an additional fee.
