More Pics Coming Soon Completely Renovated, Energy Efficient 2Bed/2Bath Townhome-Style Apartments Less Than 1 Mile to Downtown Northampton Come live in a beautiful, completely renovated townhome-style apartment featuring two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, within walking distance of downtown Northampton! Located along the lovely South Street corridor, with some of the oldest and most charming buildings in town, these apartments are part of the redevelopment of 227 South Street. The whole development includes eight units: Five new construction Energy Star townhomes and three renovated apartments in the original 1884 home at the front of the property. This ad is for two of the newly constructed townhome-style apartments located on the first floor of the original front house. These units have covered porches at their front entrance and patios at their back entrance. These 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhome-style single-level-living (1st floor) apartments have gorgeous, regionally-grown American White Ash hardwood floors, white shaker-style cabinets, dark granite countertops, stainless steel Energy Star appliances (including dishwashers!) and in-unit laundry. Each apartment has a front porch with covered bicycle storage and a sitting area, as well as air conditioning and semi-private backyards with patios. Each apartment features an open floor plan with a generous sized kitchen and peninsula bar and good natural light. Two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, make these units ideal for roommates or others in need of more than one full bathroom. In each unit, one bathroom has a tub and the other bathroom has a walk-in shower. Apartments also feature good sized closets and in-unit Energy Star clothes washers and dryers. Additional dedicated storage space is available in the basement, as well as in backyard storage sheds. Open cell spray foam has been installed to provide superb sound insulation between units, and the units are certified lead safe for children. While not ADA compliant (both units are accessed via several steps with a handrail), these apartments are located entirely on the first floor of the building, both have one bathroom with a walk-in shower, and one of the bathrooms in Apartment 1 is designed to ADA standards. Energy efficiency features include closed cell spray foam insulation, double-paned and Energy Star windows, programmable thermostats, and heat and air conditioning provided by efficient ductless mini-split heat pumps. The development also features a solar PV array that powers common electrical loads (and some of the units). Like to garden and spend time outside? These apartments have a dedicated gardening bed at their front porches. In the backyards, granite-like textured concrete patios with privacy screening are set next to additional gardening beds and lead to shared open space with community garden boxes (dedicated garden planters for each apartment). At the back of the property is a small shared open space with a play structure. Or, downtown is a just a short walk, or head for the bike path, with an entrance just half a mile away. The development is also a stone's throw from the Meadow's Conservation Area, one of the South Street neighborhood's most prized assets, which also connects to the Oxbow and the Arcadia Wildlife Sanctuary. Rent is $2,000/month. Each apartment has one dedicated parking space, with additional undedicated parking spaces available onsite as well as on the street immediately out front. Rent includes snow removal, mowing, water & sewer, and trash/recycling/compost collection by the Pedal People. Tenants pay electricity (heat, AC and hot water). One year leases starting September 1st.
