Sydney Sensabaugh Review of Addison Park Apartments

Peaceful and clean are two strong words to describe this community. It s quite, litter free and neighbor friendly. I visit my friends often who live here. My friends rent a 3 bed, 2 bath and it s absolutely adorable, comfortable and perfect for their family, a couple with a 10 month of daughter while pregnant with their second daughter! They sleep in the master bedroom and each daughters will have a room of their own. The kitchen is a decent size with standard appliances. I like how the dining and living room are in an open to each other. Nice size hallway closest for extra storage.
Apartment amenities include (not all units have all) the following: A/C, carpet, ceiling fans, dishwasher & disposal, patio/balcony, large closests, W/D hook ups, window coverings, complete eat kitchen, wood flooring and updated counter tops. Monthly pest control.
Community amenities include the following: a laundry facility, a business center, a courtyard and a playground while obtaining bilingual staff on site. Also, in my opinion, decent parking availability.
Pet friendly to both cats and dogs as long as they are approved first. Limited to 2 per apartment. $250 pet fee + $30/mo, per pet (up to $60/mo.) Not allowed: any aggressive breeds including, but not limited to the following: Dobermans, Pit Bulls, Chows, Akitas, German Shepherds, Rottweilers or any non-domestic dogs or any mix of the breeds. The leasing office has a list of additional breeds not allowed.
Overall, it seems like an excellent place to live. For my case, there s only three downfalls that would cause me to explore other places to consider loving. One, restrictions on pet breeds. Two, rent being on the expensive side. Three, room to improve on maintenance.
Pet breed restrictions I love how my cat would be allowed in my home but (if my significant other wanted to move in with me, our) dog Zeus wouldn t be allowed to live in our home even though he s a amazingly obedient and the biggest sweetheart ever.
Rent for example, my friends apartment (picture 1) is a 3 bed, 2 bath 1300sq.ft. for $939-$1,089/mo. If I was to rent here, I would be the only occupant so a 1 bed, 1 bath (picture 2) would be ideal 600sq.ft. for $650/mo. However, I would need to rent a 2 bed, 1 bath (picture 3: style A) 900sq.ft for $704-$764/mo or a 2 bed, 2 bath (picture 4: style B) 1,100sq.ft. for $739-$829/mo because I want an outside area. Therefore, of the 2 bedrooms, I would prefer style B (2 bath). This would value my privacy while still providing for day and/or over night guest a place to shower, etc., eliminating lines waiting for the restroom. The possible price difference more a per month with choosing style B over style would range from (lowest rent payment) $35 to (highest rent payment) $65. So as for the price for upgrading from style A to B (for the second bathroom) is pretty reasonable. I could afford style B; however, paying $739-$829/mo for solely rent is a bit high on the scale for any sole income. That s $185-$208 each week for rent alone since the only utility included is trash removal.
Maintenance they show up in a timely manner; however, the doors opening up to each stair level needs updating they are falling off the hinges.
Looking past the 3 points I listed that would steer me to look into other living communities, this one is still on the top of my list.
