At the time of lease signing, three months of rent are due (first month, last month, and a security deposit that's worth one month of rent). Please call or email if interested. Check out what our past tenant said about the experience living in this apartment : "I lived in the one bedroom unit at the Clark House for the two years I spent in Philadelphia due to temporary academic job and my experience has been great. It is a very clean, quiet, furnished and historical building at a great location. It is great for focusing on work or studying both during day time and evening. Strong thick walls and stones prevent noise from outside. The building is bordering the Upenn campus so its is in walking distance to the entire campus and security is also good since campus security patrols the streets. There are busses going to city center that stop at the unit's block and trolley stop is just a few blocks away. There is a nearby green park, coffee shops, and lots of eating options. Most importantly our landlord is very responsive and helpful with any issues, repairs and questions. The rent price is very convenient and it is hard to find such a place. " Fully furnished apartment. Owner pays for trash, furniture, high speed internet, and etc, Tenants pay for water, gas and electricity. Monthly total utility charge is between $170 and $200.
