We bought a one bedroom over a year ago and have had no problems. The community is very quiet and the grounds are always clean. You have your own parking spot and have never felt unsage. The inside of the apartments are very nice with open floor plans. We are close to the metro, gym, bike trails and shopping. I have nothing to complain about and an happy to call it home!

Actually, you're not close to anything being you're in the middle of an industrial park. Yuck. These places will still be worth $270K 30 years from now.

Actually it is right next to the metro, 495, Kingstown, Landmark, Hoffman, Old Town...I can go on and on...all of these places are no more than 5-10 minutes away.

Hi, did you buy on the top floor?

I'm glad that you've been fortunate enough to have had no problems. Since moving in several months ago, I've had problems with extremely noisy pipes in my master bedroom and second room AND water leaked into my bedroom...stained my wall and carpet. I've talked to several other residents who have experienced problems too. These places were built as apartments not condo.
