Westside Apartments and Shopping, Phoenixville’s newest apartment and retail community, opened for leasing in Spring 2017. This exciting addition to the already vibrant scene of Phoenixville has been instrumental in bringing homes and everyday convenience to a desolate corner on Route 23. Blending the unique charm and excitement of the nearby town center with a scenic oasis just minutes away, Westside has something for everyone. The impressive success and demand of this project has led developer, Longview Property Group, to expand the apartment community and bring an additional 54 homes to Phoenixville.
The new apartment homes are on Rapps Dam Road, across the street from the original development site, and mirror the size, style and design of the community’s original apartments. Studio, one and two bedroom homes with square footages ranging from 680 sq. ft. – 1,141 sq. ft. are available from rents starting at $1,299 and topping out around $1,850 per month. All homes are complete with full-sized washers and dryers, quartz countertops in the kitchens and baths and plentiful closet space for storage. The expansion also includes garages available for rental.
“We are not surprised but are certainly pleased by the engagement and enthusiasm the expansion has received. 39 of the 54 apartments are already leased, which is a testament to Longview’s vision for this space. We have been excited about this project from our very first visit to the site and immediately recognized it’s potential” explains Jessica Scully, President of Scully Company. The 15 remaining homes are currently offering limited time move-in specials and are anticipated to be off the market in the next few weeks.
Westside Apartments and Shopping is a win for Phoenixville. The apartment tenants have given the property glowing recommendations and The Phoenixville Chamber of Commerce honored the project with the 2018 Business Development Award. Local Phoenixville residents have also shared that they are thrilled that this project has replaced the “eyesore” that previously occupied Westside’s development plot.
Westside Apartments and Shopping brings every convenience one could desire to the doorstep of the lucky folks residing in their apartment homes. On location shops include Rebel Hill Brewery and outdoor beer garden, Dunkin Donuts, Wayback Burgers, Pet Valu, T-Mobile, Tre Nail Bar, and Stride Spin & Fitness Studio – just to name a few! From the on-site retail to the apartment community’s robust amenity package, residents do not have to go far to engage their social, fun, creative or outdoorsy sides. There’s something for every side of you at Westside!
This recently revitalized town has seen a surge of new development over the past several years, but what sets Westside Apartments and Shopping apart is its rooted connection to the area. Developer Bill Andersen, President of Longview Property Group, is a resident of Phoenixville who has dedicated his time – both professionally and personally - to the rebirth of the area. Andersen and his wife, Liz, started the Phoenixville Farmers Market, Charlestown Farm - one of the early CSA’s (Community Supported Agriculture) in the area, Broadwater Farm - a pastured cattle operation on Charlestown Road, and support important local organizations including the Colonial Theatre.
