Heat and hot water and high-speed internet are included with the rent for this extra large 1-bedroom apartment with an additional non-bedroom room for den or office or other purpose is the entire 2nd floor of a recently renovated Victorian house. It features a huge open-plan Kitchen / Dining / Living room area.

This home is located in a highly desirable University City neighborhood, within easy walking distance of the University of Pennsylvania and the Restaurant School at Walnut Hill college. It's about a mile from Drexel University and there are several public transit lines nearby. This large modern apartment has light oak hardwood floors and designer tiled bathroom.
The open-plan kitchen has plenty of cabinets and a sit-down breakfast-bar. The sunny sunny and spacious "living /dining room" has large bay windows that overlook the backyard and a secret bird sanctuary hidden behind the houses on the block. It's a public park but very hard to discover.
I have been a service-oriented and helpful landlord, owning and improving this and other homes for 35+ years. Major renovations to this apartment occurred in 2015.
