About This Home

Available Now

This beautifully finished studio at 1501 N 5th Street delivers the kind of thoughtful design and modern touches that are hard to find at this price point. Wide-plank oak flooring, quartz countertops, shaker cabinets, and recessed lighting set the tone throughout, while soaring ceilings give the space an open, airy feel well beyond what you'd expect from a studio. The sleek full bath features contemporary finishes and a sliding glass shower door, and a brand new in-unit washer/dryer makes everyday living effortless. Generous natural light pours through the windows. Nestled in the heart of Olde Kensington, one of Philadelphia's most dynamic and fast-evolving neighborhoods, you'll have Cruz Playground steps from your door and some of the city's best spots within walking distance — Sutton's, Luna Cafe, Poe's, Human Robot, and The Rook are all just around the corner. Off-street parking is available for an additional $200/month. Tenants responsible for all utilities. Pets considered on a case-by-case basis
