Lifestyle

Ask our residents and they will tell you that the quality of life at Cathedral Village far exceeds any expectations they had before moving here. Our true success is demonstrated by the mutual trust and respect shared among residents, management and staff. Once established, the trust and respect is the foundation from which our relationships are fostered.

From the first moment visitors enter the Main Lobby in Houston Commons, they begin to feel the sense of caring from the warm welcome from our Concierge and reception desk staff. Visitors, who arrive a few minutes before appointments, often comment on how comforting it is to observe the way in which residents greet each other in passing or converse with staff members.

Moving to Cathedral Village does not change your lifestyle but there will be many opportunities to add events to your current schedule of activities and interests, and many choices. The first of those will be your choices of carpet and paint colors for your completely renovated apartment which will be ready for you prior to occupancy.

To decide the placement of your furniture or to see how others fit everything in, view the Floor Plans and Photographs section. Line drawings show room dimensions, locations of windows, closets, and kitchen and bath facilities; the photographs give you an idea how residents have furnished their apartments.

Location

The location of Cathedral Village in Andorra, a residential neighborhood in the Northwest corner of Philadelphia, where Ridge and Henry Avenues intersect Cathedral Road, prompted one resident to describe Cathedral Village as, “. . . not an isolated spoke on a wheel, but the center of the hub – a location so ideal that destinations in Center City and Montgomery County are equally convenient to reach.”

 

Our location places us within the convenience of:

• Shopping Centers
• Public Transportation
• Train Stations
• Theaters
• Houses of Worship
• Banks
• Golf Courses and Country Clubs
• The Morris Arboretum
• The Philadelphia, Barnes and Woodmere Art Museums

Just 20 minutes from Center City, and on the border of Montgomery County, residents have easy access to any desired event or performance in the Metropolitan Philadelphia area.
