You’re Particular About Where You Live
This upstairs corner apartment gives you:
Kitchen cabinets with drawers that close themselves, and a double stainless steel sink, color coordinated
countertops, and a under-cabinet light over the sink.
12″x 12″ ceramic tile around the bathtub and on the bathroom floor
An oak vanity with a granite top the color of jade and 8 drawers (that also close themselves)
A haven — the two sets of people who lived in this apartment in the past six years tell us it is especially cozy at night.
You Like Extras
How about:
A keyed storage closet that is 8 feet high – no more storing your canoe or other tall stuff in the corner of the living room.
Hooking up to the HD antenna and watching a lot of channels for free. Or if you’d rather sign up with a TV provider the apartment is wired for local/national/international satellite or cable TV.
Choose a color from our accent wall palette and we’ll paint an accent wall for you.
Two sets of can lights in the living room, each set on its own dimmer switch.
You Like to Know a Little About Who Lives Here
People feel comfortable leaving their soap and softener and other laundry supplies on open shelves in the laundry rooms.
Residents who moved back to Switzerland after getting their degrees said, “We liked living here because the apartments have different floor plans and we felt like we had our own place.”
People stay – some residents have lived here ten years or more.
Why did the people who lived here leave? They lived here about 2 1/2 years and just bought their first house.
A few people get their exercise by biking to Stanford and Google.
Several residents have said they’ve made lasting friendships with some of their neighbors.
The managers live in the complex – residents don’t have to leave messages and make appointments. They get notes saying things like “Thank you both for being such great managers,” and “Thanks for making this such a comfortable place to live.”
You Want to Live in a Place That Feels Like Home
The gardens surrounding the pool have ferns, lemon bushes, camellias, apricot and loquat trees, a giant avocado tree, a visiting falcon and a raccoon who lives in a large pine tree.
The gates to our gated complex are inviting, and as soon as they get inside many people say something about how peaceful and quiet it is.
People new to California sometimes ask about earthquakes, and yes, the entire complex has been earthquake retrofitted.
Your cat can watch sassy squirrels and an assortment of birds.
