Testimonial: My experience living at Karen and GK's apartment was amazing. I stayed for 6 months. The space is cozy and has everything you need. Great location, perfect for walking to downtown or the greenway. A very welcoming environment, Karen takes wonderful care of the property. Access to laundry and plenty of parking makes it hassle free to live here. The apartment is quiet, comfortable, and convenient. I would not hesitate to recommend this apartment to anyone. I consider myself lucky to have found such an amazing place to live for a while. Thank you Karen and GK.
