Welcome to unit 705 at Locust, where your morning coffee ritual begins in a thoughtfully designed one-bedroom, one-bathroom home spanning 646 square feet in the heart of University City. This residence combines the intimacy of apartment living with the extensive amenities of a full-service community built in 1999.
Step into your open floor plan where nine-foot-plus ceilings create an airy atmosphere that flows seamlessly from living space to kitchen. The heart of your home features a complete suite of stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, microwave, and disposal, making everything from quick weekday breakfasts to weekend dinner parties effortless. The convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer transforms laundry from chore to simple routine.
Your building extends far beyond your front door with amenities that enrich daily life. Start mornings with a workout in the fitness center, then grab coffee before heading out from the security of a gated community. The elevator whisks you to the parking garage where your space waits. Evenings might find you on the roof deck watching the Philadelphia skyline transition from day to night, or perhaps joining neighbors in the clubhouse or game room. The jogging path offers a perfect circuit for clearing your head, while the picnic area and meeting room provide spaces for gathering.
University City surrounds you with an eclectic dining scene where corner cafes meet innovative eateries, creating a walkable landscape of flavors just steps from your door. Tree-lined streets connect you to the neighborhood's mix of longtime establishments and newer spots, each contributing to the area's distinctive character. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch between meetings or exploring weekend brunch options, the local dining corridor offers variety within easy walking distance.
Pet owners appreciate the thoughtful inclusion of a dedicated dog park within the community, complemented by a pet-friendly policy that welcomes both cats and dogs with deposit requirements and breed restrictions that ensure a harmonious environment for all residents. Your four-legged family members will find space to play and socialize right at home.
Living at Locust means embracing the rhythm of University City life, where academic energy meets urban sophistication, where your morning jog can wind through community paths and your evening unwind can happen stories above the city on your building's roof deck, where every day feels purposefully designed around the life you want to live.
