Ivy Garden Apartments

Good apartment for price. Maintenance is quick, management is chill. Biggest issue is no in-unit washer/dryer, but there are laundry rooms scattered throughout the complex so washing clothes isn’t too much of an ordeal.

Affordable
Adequate unit. Not fancy but good enough
Close (~15m) walk to law school
Responsive and good management

My apartment has great lighting and a good amount of space, but it is very outdated, has temperature control issues and thins walls, and the floor plan is bizarre (e.g., the master bedroom has a tiny bathroom with a shower that is maybe 3 feet wide).

I love my apartment at Ivy Gardens. I have a one bedroom-one bathroom and it is extremely spacious and I get the added bonus of free parking. It is also relatively cheap for the utilities (gas/electric/internet) that aren't included in the rental cost. The management is extremely easy to communicate with and are very responsive to questions and emails. The maintenance staff is also very quick to respond and take care of any issues that arise. While some of the units are older, they do offer renovations and even the older models aren't bad and come at a cheaper price. While I don't have a pet, many residents do and it seems to be a great complex for families and pets.

Better Value than Pav

Great for Law and Darden school students

In an unrenovated unit, you will be getting carpet and appliances from the 1970s. There are some safety concerns, with packages often stolen. However, the walls are well insulated and the maintenance is responsive. Lots of parking. No in-unit w/d, but an onsite laundromat.

So far it has been fairly good. No Real Complaints. Price and Location are great. Some problems with damage to the walls and the carpet throughout is not ideal. Wish they flat out allowed pets but they are liberal with ESAs.

Spacious property and convenient location

The apartment is nice enough. The 1b 1ba is spacious, particularly the living area. Cons: the kitchen is too small with insufficient counter space and older drawers/appliances; the bathroom is tiny; the entire apartment is carpeted, which means the floors more easily get dirty.
