It also features tons of CLOSET SPACE to keep your living areas clutter-free. ** 2. LOCATION - This unit is on a safe and beautiful, tree-lined, and residential street. It less than 2000 feet (0.2 mile) from the popular La Colombe Cafe, Frankford Hall, as well as SEPTA Station for work/commuting. There are few locations better than this in the entirety of Philadelphia. It's the perfect location to be CLOSE to the action, but not in the MIDDLE of it. ** 3. SAFE COURTYARD-FACING UNIT - This unit is in a GREAT neighborhood, as you probably know. However, it also requires two doors for entry. One locked door (with buzzer) is located at street level which allows visitors to enter the private courtyard. Another locked door is located at the entrance to the actual unit.

The unit also features a washer and dryer; no need for a laundromat. Look out for similar units with compact appliances that look good in the pictures only. ** 6. HEATING/COOLING - Modern heating and air conditioning systems are provided within the unit, to keep you comfortable. ** 7. LIGHT of CORNER UNIT - This apartment has tons of natural light. It's a corner unit, so you have light coming in from three sides of the unit (as opposed to two). Lots of windows and natural light in this unit. ** 8. SEMI-PRIVATE COURTYARD - Speaking of light, the unit features a large, semi-private courtyard (for residents only behind locked gate). This is a great space to entertain or enjoy a drink after a long day. ** 9. HARDWOOD FLOORS - All floors are hardwood (or tile in the bathroom only). We feel it is necessary to maintain an immaculate and sanitary unit.
