Spaces That Make Every Day Feel Effortless
Amenities at Upstairs at Van Aken are designed for how you actually live. Start the day in the 24-hour fitness center, pick up packages on your schedule, or settle into the rooftop lounge + terrace with views over the Van Aken District. Residents also enjoy heated underground garage parking, on-site pet spaces, bike storage, a bike repair + wash area, exclusive local merchant offers, and easy access to public transportation just outside the building. It is comfort, convenience, and district energy in one Shaker Heights address.
Inside, residences are defined by clean lines, natural light, and a refined material palette across Signature, Moreland, and Penthouse suite styles. Our Shaker Heights apartments for rent feature floor-to-ceiling energy-efficient windows, quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances, 7-inch wood-inspired flooring, in-unit Whirlpool washers and dryers, Mecho roller shades, high-speed internet access, and intentional storage solutions that keep everyday living organized and uncluttered.
