About 521 S Broad St #710
An open kitchen flows into a living room framed by the clean lines of a thoughtfully designed floor plan, and right away you understand why 735 square feet can feel like considerably more. The upgraded countertops catch the light, the stainless steel appliances line up like a professional set, and the dishwasher, refrigerator, ice maker, self-cleaning oven, and built-in microwave mean the kitchen is genuinely ready for whatever you want to cook tonight. The disposal keeps cleanup simple, and when dinner is finished, the living space opens up around you without a wall cutting off the energy of the room.
The bedroom is a proper retreat — entry-level accessible, sized to breathe, and anchored by a walk-in closet that changes how you think about storage. No more rotating a seasonal wardrobe or stacking boxes in corners. The full bathroom is right where it needs to be, and the in-unit washer and dryer mean laundry is just another quiet task that happens at home, on your schedule, without a shared basement or a pocket full of quarters.
Southstar rises at 521 S Broad Street in Philadelphia's Hawthorne neighborhood, a stretch of the city that carries real character — established rowhouses alongside newer construction, independent restaurants pressing up against corner shops that have been there for decades. Broad Street is one of Philadelphia's great corridors, and living on it puts you at the center of a neighborhood that has been steadily growing into itself. The South Broad arts district, the energy of Passyunk Avenue a few blocks east, the green space and farmers market culture of the surrounding blocks — Hawthorne is a place where the city feels lived-in and genuine rather than curated for effect.
The building itself was completed in 2014 and brings a full set of amenities that extend your living space well beyond your front door. The roof deck is the headline — open sky above one of Philadelphia's most recognizable streets, with views that reward both the morning coffee moment and the evening wind-down. The fitness center means your workout is an elevator ride away, not a separate commute. A game room and meeting room give you options depending on whether the day calls for something social or something focused. The picnic area and dog park make outdoor time easy, and for residents with pets, the building welcomes both cats and dogs. Parking is available in the building's garage, which removes one of the persistent stresses of city living entirely. Elevator access and on-site security round out the building's infrastructure, giving the whole place a sense of ease that compounds over time.
Unit 1-710 is the kind of home where the daily routine just works. You wake up, the kitchen is ready, the closet is organized, and the building's amenities are there when you want them and quiet when you don't. Hawthorne hums outside the windows, Broad Street keeps its own rhythm below, and the city — in every direction — is close. 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.
