About This Home

As of September 2025

Welcome to The Dorchester in the award-winning Rittenhouse Square neighborhood. This 17th-floor studio offers incredible potential, with some updates, it can truly shine, featuring a view of Rittenhouse Square park. Upon entry, you'll find a walk-in closet leading to a full bathroom. A second spacious walk-in closet provides excellent storage. The main living area is bright and open, with the kitchen tucked around the corner, ready for renovations and your personal touch. The Dorchester offers outstanding amenities, including a 24/7 front desk, rooftop pool, and a fully equipped fitness center. Step outside and enjoy everything Center City has to offer, world-class dining, vibrant nightlife, charming cafe's, and boutique shopping. The University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, and CHOP are all within easy reach. And of course, Rittenhouse Square is just across the street, home to farmers markets, seasonal events, and the perfect spot to relax and people-watch. This location is second to none in Philadelphia.
