Pricey but not bad

they consistently increase prices, it's one of the higher end apartments in Chapel Hill. I love the walkability here with Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Aldi, and more than a handful of restaurants less than a 10 minute walk away. Management could be better here. I hope prices settle down as more apartments are built in Chapel Hill because this is very overpriced.

Great Experience

Very reasonable price for a 1 bedroom apartment in Chapel Hill. Rent includes parking in a covered garage with plenty of overnight guest passes which are a huge plus. Within 5 mins walk/drive of 4 grocery stores, restaurants and Silverspot Mall. 10-15 minute commute to KFBS. Amenities include free printing, coffee bar, gas grills, pool, fire pit, dog park, valet trash service, pool table and other games in common area, workspaces, and more. Management is very responsive and helpful fixing work orders within 48 based on my experience. Apartments are spacey with high ceilings featuring good kitchen appliances

Excellent Location and Kind Staff

Berkshire is a clean, safe and amenity-packed apartment complex! The location is unbeastable with 4 grocery stores in walking distance as well as a few nearby trails. Many bus lines going to campus as well as to Durham right next to the apartment. The staff are also very kind and proactive, and plan some fun events like trivia for residents as well. Great gym, pool, lounge, and study areas. May be a bit pricey for living alone but a great value if you have a roomate (2b2b apt).

Great Location and Spacious Rooms

The location of the complex is great, walking distance to multiple restaurants and grocery stores. Nice selection of amenities, featuring a gym, pool, and coffee bar in the lobby. Rooms are spacious with large windows, however, if facing the pool your sunlight exposure will be slightly limited. Management is fine and repairs are conducted within 48 hours of maintenance requests.

Cozy living with my friends

Finishes are nice and the building feels modern. The leasing office is very friendly and I've enjoyed my experiences with them.

Top location with the best amenities

The Berkshire has been a great place to live. It is within walking distance of grocery stores like Whole Foods and Trader Joe's and nice restaurants. It's pet friendly, has a decently sized gym, and outdoor pool. The amenities are the nicest I've seen in the area too.

It's solid

It's really close to the Whole Foods and Trader Joe's which is great and makes it really easy to just walk over there. The apartments are solid and can't complain about the staff.

About Chapel Hill

Chapel Hill has a suburban feel, with many single-family homes and quiet streets. The neighborhood is not particularly walkable, with few shops and restaurants within walking distance. The neighborhood is located near several major highways, including I-40 and US-15, making it easy to get around by ...

Chapel Hill Reviews

It's very quiet: mostly graduate students and some families. Very convenient for getting to McColl. It is tucked away in the corner of campus so if you want to walk anywhere, it takes about a mile to get into campus. I would recommend having a car for this neighborhood since there are no grocery stores within walking distance.
Love being right on Franklin street. Walking distance to football games and tailgates as well as restaurants and bars on Franklin.
Lots of food options around the building. I regularly walk my dog in the area around the apartment.
The neighborhood is mostly for other UNC students.
Carrboro is really cool, if slightly offbeat place to be. Weaver St Market and a bevy of other restaurants/smaller places make it a good food hub. For things going on, there are things like the Carrboro Arts Fest, weekly "Carrboro Street Markets" with lots of vendors, and a flurry of other community-oriented activities.

Have enjoyed my time there.
Lots of stores, gym in neighborhood, church, groceries--basically a little town. Con is that it almost feels a bit "Pleasantville." That said, the Walmart up the road (<2 min) is wonderful as is Fig & Honey and the huge Harris Teeter (<5 min away) in Chatham county. Families and children amidst Med School students and retirees. Great feeling, awesome convenience to UNC and downtown CH. Highly recommend.
Neighborhood feels super safe. Little kids will like the playground on-site. Lots of friends for them to play with. Elementary school (Glenwood) is awesome, if not old. Plenty of community events to meet people and for kids to play. I like it here, and recommend it to most people.
The neighborhood is very convenient for business grad students, however, it is far from everything else. You need to get a car for everything, except going to school. It still compensates, given that uber is cheap in the region and the convenience to go to school is amazing.
