The Ellsworth Apartments

I loved these apartments. The very first thing that appealed to me was the sense of safety. I had a parking spot in the garage and you need a fob to get in. You need a fob to enter the building after business hours. You also need a fob to enter the elevators. I do have to say it is an overall very safe area. Next the staff was always so welcoming and down to earth. I felt like they knew me and my family, it was nice. Whenever I had to put a work order in it was filled that same day. I am in no... way saying this is a given but I never felt like they put my problems off. They are simple but have beautiful details inside apartment. The walls seemed a bit thin at times but It was never a problem. I think we were the noisy neighbors. Great complex, would totally recommend. I have a five year old, didn't see many other kids there though. Read More

I have been renting apartments past 10 years and I haven't had such a friendly and understanding leasing office staff. Sandy, the new property manager, is a very professional, understanding and accommodating for the tenants. I hope the owners will keep her as the property manager, forever!

The complex is very close to GLOBALFOUNDRIES which was my work place. It was a very short distance to the work. For cold weathers, if you do not want to drive to the work, you can get the shuttle which is... operated by this apartment complex and have a door to door service for both Admin 1 and Admin2 buildings inside the Fab8 campus. The drivers of the shuttle are also very friendly. Read More

I lived in a 2 bed/2 bath apartment here for about 6 months. This apartment is in the middle of everything - right off route 9 (which goes everywhere in the area), right near the highway entrance, pharmacy, 24/7 grocery store, restaurants, etc. The apartments may seem expensive, but when you visit other places in the area you'll understand you are paying to stay in a clean, spacious, safe place and that's worth paying a bit more for. Security deposit is only about $200, which is lower than usual... .
The only thing I really took issue with here is that I lived in a 2nd floor apartment and it was COLD in the winter. The floor and window insulation is terrible, and the venting system is pretty inefficient. I actually had to wear socks/shoes when I walked in the kitchen or bathroom or else it would be painful, and things left on the floor were ice cold after an hour. Of course, this would only be an issue if you were on the 2nd floor above the garage and there are 4 floors in each building.
But even that was something I could deal with for the high quality of everything else. The office was always great to me and you can tell maintenance really cares about what they do. There's a number of fantastic businesses right in the complex to walk to too which is cool. This place is certainly worth at least a walk through, I promise it will be worth it! Read More

Expensive apartments with small space as compare to many other available apartments nearby. Next to the car park/ garage, easily can hear noise into midnight. Worse, is many has issues getting back deposit when you are moving our the apartments. They have no intend to refund your deposits. Poor Management office.

The staff love to see prototype personnel moving in, they understand that prototype is crazy and sucks the life out of you. They will do their best to help. I have 2 roommates, in a 3 bedroom, 2 bath apartment, the apartment was clean when we moved in and came with a washer/dryer combo, a fridge, a dishwasher and a stove, otherwise you must furnish it or can pay $300ish a month to furnish. (Walmart furniture highly recommended). The location is very convenient, CVS is next door to the complex,... ACE hardware across the street, coffee shop and sushi shop on bottom floor of one of the buildings, a grocery store 1/4 mile away, Walmart is a 15 minute drive, local resteraunts starting at 2 miles away, Nearest YMCA is a mile away (Prototype students receive a free membership to the local 4 YMCAs), post office and police station only 1/2 mile away. The only downside is the 20 minute drive to site, but it is very easily manageable with a little tiny bit of planning. Internet included in rent, for everything else you will be given a paper and told how to set it up. It is a really clean place and very accommodating to military members, I would recommend at least giving Ellsworth a look if you need a place to live. Read More
