Pros:
The building has a ton if character, clean and modern hallways and lobby, a great management company, and the apartments are spacious with lots of charm and natural light. Kitchens and bathrooms were recently updated. The neighborhood is great, pretty peaceful and we are right next to 2 private schools, so feels very safe. The bar downstairs is very quiet. The walls inside the apartment are super thick and we never hear anything from our neighbors.
Cons:
We’ve had a few pest control problems but management has been helpful in sending exterminators. We’ve had a few mice in the winters and a few roaches in the summers, but have since found all the holes in our apartment and havent had any problems since. Although this building is jn a quiet neighborhood, the windows are pretty old so you pretty much hear everything on the street below.
Advice to owner:
Be a little more cognizant about closing up holes when making repairs in the apartment to avoid pest problems!
