Welcome to Fox & Main Apartments - Your New Home at 398-400 S Main St.
Discover the charm and convenience of urban living at Fox & Main Apartments.
1. Location & Neighborhood Context
It sits on South Main Street, which is part of the central core of Phillipsburg so the unit is in a fairly walkable, downtown adjacent setting.
The broader neighborhood: According to resident feedback on sites like Trulia, it's described as "cozy and picturesque", with a small-town feel, sidewalks, and some community interaction.
That said, some feedback also suggests local amenities and infrastructure could use improvement, so while walkability is decent, some services may be more limited.
2. Nearby Services, Amenities & Transit
Shopping, dining and basic services: Because the unit is on Main Street near downtown Phillipsburg, you have access to local restaurants, retail shops and neighborhood businesses within walking or very short driving distance.
Transit & commuting: The listing mentions "conveniently situated near key amenities like public transportation, shopping, and dining".
Schools: The listing identifies nearby schools in the same ZIP: Phillipsburg Middle School (Grades 6-8), Phillipsburg Early Childhood Center (PK-1) etc.
Historic context: The area is near the Phillipsburg Commercial Historic District which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places recognizing the historic commercial architecture in the downtown area.
3. Property Use & Zoning Notes
The listing on commercial property platforms shows that 398-400 S Main St. includes "a huge 2,000 SF raw space plus garage and full basement available" for retail/office use. LoopNet
So beyond the residential apartments in the building, the site also has commercial possibilities (which may affect traffic, usage, and parking).
Because it's on Main Street and mixed use (residential + commercial), expect typical downtown building dynamics: foot traffic, some varied uses, possibly limited dedicated parking depending on unit.
4. Strengths & Considerations
Strengths:
Central location in town, near downtown amenities.
Decent walkability and likely convenience for local errands.
Historic character of neighborhood may give charm.
Considerations:
Being downtown and mixed use, parking might be limited or shared.
The building or area may require additional due diligence regarding hours of business, noise (if commercial uses next door).
Public transit or commuter rail may not be as strong as in larger metro area.
Tenant pays all utilities. Water is billed by the landlord.
