Two Bedroom Village and Quad Apartments

The Village is located outside the back of our main Bethea Building and is comprised of duplex homes. Each home has its own entrance with an outdoor storage closet and patio. On the interior, there is a spacious living space and kitchen area. The master bedroom has its own bath with bath/shower combination. The other bathroom can be accessed from the hallway and has a shower only. Residents often use the other room as a guest room or office space. Each bedroom, kitchen, and the living space have windows. There is a washer/dryer access point in the hall closet which also includes a shelf. Each bedroom has closet space as well. A coat closet is located just inside the entry of the front door. Residents are invited to garden the space outside their homes if they are interested in doing so.

One Bedroom Suite (Bethea Building)

Located on the second floor of the main building, the suites include two large rooms that are connected by a small bathroom with shower and a kitchenette. The adjoining wall creates a separation thus giving it the feel of a suite. Due to the rooms’ size, residents often take part of their bedroom or part of the living space and create an office or craft area or include a small dining table. The bedroom has a large closet with ample storage. The kitchenette includes a refrigerator, microwave, and sink as well as a large pantry. Each room has its own heating and cooling unit and windows that slide open. Being on the second floor offers beautiful views of the mountains, tree line and grounds.
