During my eight years living and working in Essex, I have probably driven past The Lofts a thousand times, but have never been inside. Last week, I was able to change that. After letting me into the locked building, Operations Manager Danielle gave me the full tour.
Floorplans at The Lofts range from a spacious two-bedroom/two-bath corner unit at $1,600 per month to a one-bedroom/one-bath interior unit at $1,250 per month. All units have access to a gym, game room, underground parking, and availability of a locked storage unit. 24/7 security assistance and help with lockouts are also available (although Danielle says that she doesn’t have to climb out of bed to let someone into their apartment too often).
Right now, the building has one available unit, which will have new tenants move in shortly. Danielle told me that it typically takes between 20-30 days to changeover an apartment. This is because the property managers would like all of the units to be pristine and give the new occupant the ability to feel like they are moving into a brand new unit. Or as Danielle told me, “the only thing that they need to do is unpack.”
The Lofts Essex is located at 42 Susie Wilson Road. Check out floorplans, view amenities, or set up a tour online at http://theloftsessex.com/.
