Some apartments have full basements where you get washer and dryer hook-ups and extra storage, and there are dishwashers and hardwood floors in select units, plus the usual appliances like disposals and refrigerators are already in the kitchens. Residents get free heat and hot water, as well as cable TV, and heating comes through an "Other" system, which is something you don't always find, while off-street parking, covered parking, and even garage options are available, and there's also street parking for visitors or those times when you need a little extra.
You can choose from floor plans with one, two, or even three bedrooms-some layouts are flats, others are townhouses, and in some cases, you can move into a furnished apartment in as little as 48 hours thanks to their move-in ready package from CORT, which is helpful if you're looking for something quick and easy. The place is managed by Carabetta Companies and there's a 24-hour maintenance service; you can even put in requests through an online portal, which is just a handy way to get things handled without much hassle, and the grounds get professional landscaping year-round, so you'll always see some seasonal color as you look out at the wooded views from your unit, and speaking of units, some of them overlook the woods, giving a bit more privacy or a nicer view.
If you've got pets, cats and small dogs are welcome per the pet policy, and for those who want to get outside, there are picnic areas, barbecue spaces, outdoor playgrounds for kids, and even a basketball court for those wanting a bit of exercise, while a laundry facility onsite means you don't have to haul your laundry far, unless you've got one of the select units with laundry hook-ups in the basement. The property serves independent and assisted living needs by offering different living choices and adapting to resident requirements, and they're also known for specialized services matched to what people need, though what those are depends a bit on your situation and the exact apartment you pick.
