Parkside Village of Hartford sits in a spot with nearby hospitals, doctors, and pharmacies, so residents can get to healthcare quickly when they need it, and the building has safety features you can see right away, like handicap accessible units, wide hallways, wheelchair friendly showers, and grab bars in the bathrooms, and you'll find ground floor units for those who need easy entry. Residents can bring their cats and dogs, though dog size has limits, and there are rules about pets, but folks who love animals will appreciate this. The apartments have one or two bedrooms, big bathrooms, full kitchens, air conditioning, and roomy living areas, plus you can step out onto a balcony, some with views of Mill Pond, which gives the place a nice feeling. You can park outside, in a garage, or a warm underground lot, and the management takes care of things with on-site staff, twenty-four hour maintenance, and flexible office hours for your needs.
Around the grounds, you'll see pretty landscaping and spots to sit outdoors, shared indoor common areas, a central fireplace, a community room, a clubhouse, a courtyard, and even a spot for a piano or organ, which makes gatherings and quiet afternoons comfortable. When it comes to being together, people here often join in Bible study groups, birthday or holiday parties, card games like pinochle, and lively times with the resident band or guest musicians, because live music is something they take time for. You can personalize your space and there's storage if you need extra room, plus each apartment has laundry access, and water, sewer, and trash are taken care of for you, keeping chores simple.
