Chesterwood is a small apartment community for seniors who want a peaceful and quiet place to live, and people living here can choose from one- or two-bedroom renovated units that all come with spacious living rooms, big closets, air conditioning, full kitchens, and baths with tubs, and everyone gets free in-home internet service up to 100 Mbps and cable-ready units. Residents pay rent that covers utilities like garbage, gas, water, sewer, heat, hot water, and internet, which means you won't have to worry about separate utility bills piling up, and they can park off the street in surface lots, and if they prefer, there are detached garages available as an option, along with uncovered parking and some access to public transit nearby. The building has controlled access for safety, 24-hour emergency maintenance if anything goes wrong, and laundry facilities on the property, so you don't have to leave to do laundry, plus there are flowered and green areas around the community to enjoy nature a bit.
There's a pet-friendly policy that lets each resident have one cat or dog per apartment, though there are breed and weight restrictions and a limit of one pet per unit, and for people thinking about moving in with a pet, there's a $400 security deposit, a $150 one-time pet fee, and a monthly $25 fee for pets, with more details on breed rules available if you ask the staff, so it's best to check ahead if you have a specific pet in mind. The Resident Support Program is in place to connect people with services and opportunities to help with their housing experience and improve everyday life, and folks are invited now and then to give feedback through surveys meant to help staff improve services.
The Resident Handbook gives clear information on what's expected of residents and what support the staff provides, and with only 34 units in total, things stay pretty quiet and cozy for the people who live here, which some folks find just right if they want less hustle and bustle. Lease terms run from as short as three months up to thirteen months, which gives a little flexibility if you're not looking for a long commitment, and apartments come with everything you need to settle in comfortably.
