What a lovely setting! Steps from the Schuykill River and Trail, on a quiet, shaded section of Fitler Square stands Locust Point, a 110-unit structure converted from a bible factory to condominiums by Carl Dranoff in 2007. There is so much to like here. You’re removed from the hustle and bustle of Rittenhouse Square, yet you can easily walk or bike to the attractions there or in Center City. Equally close are Penn and Drexel, accessible via the Walnut St Bridge less than a block away. ENTRANCE: One enters the building through two doors accessible using a fob into an attractive, contemporary 2-story lobby with seating areas and floor to ceiling windows. Off the lobby is a covered, outside seating area. At the back of the lobby is the gym. There is onsite management by Reinhold Residential during the week in an office just inside the entrance. UNIT ENTRANCE: Enter into a small vestibule with coat closet and the bathroom which also contains the washer/dryer. Steps on the left lead to the lofted bedroom. As one proceeds down the hallway, one notices the beautiful dark hardwood floor and is struck by the spacious feeling created by the high ceilings and light coming in from the oversize windows. It’s also very quiet due to the soundproofed walls of the building. LIVING AREA: The open floor plan allows light to stream through the space and is well suited to entertaining. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, handsome cherry cabinets offering plenty of storage space, granite counter tops and an island with seating for four. There’s plenty of room for a couch, TV and desk in the sitting area and a beautiful view of the trees lining Locust St out the window. NEARBY: The Schuykill River Park is a block away and offers a dog park, tennis courts, basketball courts and a playground. AMENITIES: There is a gym, a package room and a fenced dog run. IMPROVEMENTS: Repainted 2020. New water heater 2020. Come to Locust Point. You won’t regret it.
