    • Oversized Bedrooms

      March 26, 2025
      1st let me say this is a historical property! The history on this property is interesting! Built in the 1930s as a school and in 1980 transformed into a apartment complex with massive bedrooms! In a quiet neighborhood and lovely tenants. So glad I found it!
      Review from Apartments.com
    • Small quiet property

      March 26, 2025
      This property is in a residential area, very quiet and comfortable. I enjoy the sitting areas the manager provides, the free books that residents are allowed to borrow and the bbq areas! Manager was able to assist me and get back with me within 48 hrs!
      Review from Apartments.com
