RE/MAX Executives
Tucked into the upper floors of a 1927 red-brick landmark on Locust Street, this studio invites you to slow down and actually inhabit your space. At 220 square feet, Unit 607 is an exercise in intentional living — every inch considered, nothing wasted, and the result is a home that feels far more settled and complete than its footprint might suggest on paper. The open floor plan makes the most of what you have. There is no hallway eating into your square footage, no awkward transition between zones — instead, the kitchen flows directly into the living and sleeping area in a single cohesive sweep. The stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, disposal, and full-size refrigerator, give you a genuinely functional kitchen rather than an afterthought. Mornings here look like standing at the counter with coffee already brewed, pulling together a quick breakfast without bumping into anything, the rhythm of a small kitchen that has been thoughtfully laid out. The open configuration means you are never cut off from the rest of the room — whether you are cooking or winding down after a long day at Penn or Drexel, the space moves with you rather than against you. Storage, often the anxiety of studio living, is addressed head-on with a walk-in closet that gives you room to actually organize your life. The entry-level bedroom layout keeps everything accessible, and the single full bathroom is clean and complete. Step outside your door and the building wraps you in a community that goes well beyond four walls. The elevator makes coming and going effortless. The fitness center is there for early mornings or late evenings, whatever your schedule demands. When you need to decompress in a different way, the game room offers a change of scenery without leaving the building. A dedicated meeting room serves those work-from-home stretches when you need a proper table and a door that closes. Laundry is in-house, the building is gated, and parking is available on site for those who need it. University City itself is the kind of neighborhood that rewards the walker. Locust Street sits at the center of a dense, walkable grid where the coffee shop, the lunch counter, the evening pizza place, and the late-night study spot are all within a few blocks in any direction. The neighborhood has the energy of a place where people are building something — whether that is a career, a degree, or just a life they actually want to live — and the long-standing businesses woven between the newer ones give it a character that feels genuinely rooted rather than interchangeable. Pets are part of the picture here. Cats and dogs are welcome, with breed restrictions and a deposit required, and the on-site dog park means your dog has somewhere to run and you have somewhere to land a conversation with a neighbor on a Tuesday afternoon. Living at 4247 Locust is a particular kind of everyday satisfaction — the kind that comes from a building with nearly a century of presence behind it, a studio sized for purpose rather than excess, and a neighborhood that gives you back what you put into it each time you walk out the door. 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.
