Lakeview Apartments

and don't improve anything...

sure when you move-out, they wanted to charge you as much possible. They put an additional 500$ charge for kitchen counter damage, even though there is no damage. They were unable to prove the damage. Overall, the worst community to live in, Poor-management, Poor-maintenance, Not a good place to live with family.

spacious kitchen, separate dining room, and living room that has sliding glass doors that open onto a small deck. Grills are allowed on the decks. Rooms are painted off-white to allow plenty of natural light to come in. Water and heat are included in the rent. Storage: the larger bedroom has a huge walk-in closet, the second bedroom has 2 closets, linen closet in the full bathroom, miscellaneous closet with shelving in hallway. Downstairs the kitchen has a decent amount of cabinet space and a pantry with deep shelves. The stove/range is glass-topped and in pretty decent condition. Maintenance clears the snow a little later in the morning, around about 8 A.M. Never had a problem parking in winter. Sidewalks were usually cleared pretty well, also. They salt the staircases to the apartments and such also. The parking spaces have just been re-marked and easy to read now. Ample parking. One parking space per unit, enough extra spots that if you need more, there are options. Cons: The walls are thin, as with many apartments. Therefore, you do hear your neighbors now and then. The only other thing that can be annoying is the pavement ants. Little black ants come up from the ground in early Spring. If you buy a bag of Diatomaceous Earth and carefully (with a mask on since that stuff is crazy fine dust) ease it into the cracks you see the ants coming from, it stops the problem pretty quickly. Close to the Rails-To-Trails; Literally, right around the corner. Tons of shopping close by (Bristol, Unionville, and Avon). Close to I-84, but that area gets EXTREMELY congested all week, especially during rush hour. Maintenance addresses issues and complaints based on safety and emergency status. For example, if you have a leaky faucet that's just a little drippy and someone else's heat is not working in the dead of winter, your leaky faucet is going to have to wait a few days or a week until the more severe problems get taken are of first. That is fair and that makes sense.

bedroom has a walk-in closet and the 2nd bedroom has two ample sized closets. Parking for 2 cars is directly in front of the unit. There is 24/7 around the clock maintenance for emergency situations, and they are very responsive. The complex is located conveniently near Route 4 and a variety of shopping, gas stations, restaurants, and conveniences. It is in the beautiful town of Farmington with a great library only one mile a way. It is 3 miles from the Interstate, and while traffic is often crowded on Route 4 which connects to the highway, the road is being widened to improve traffic flow. The rent is reasonable and includes heat, hot water and cold water. It is an excellent value for the space, service, and community features. I recommend it to anyone moving to the area who needs a wholesome place to raise a family or start out as a new couple.
