These are recent photographs of the actual buildings—not generic renderings. The homes are still under construction, with landscaping and final exterior details yet to come.

The front building contains Units A and B. Unit C is the detached home behind it.

New where it matters. Practical everywhere.

The homes were designed as long-term rentals—not squeezed into leftover space.

That shows up in the parts of a home that make the greatest difference over time: full-size rooms, proper storage, laundry inside each unit and outdoor space that belongs to the people living there.

In the front duplex, the floor and ceiling assembly between Units A and B includes spray-foam insulation to help reduce sound transfer between the two homes.

Units A and B provide considerably more room than a typical two-bedroom apartment. Unit C offers the privacy and independence of a detached house in a smaller, efficient footprint.

  • Brand-new construction
  • Two bedrooms in every home
  • New kitchen appliances
  • Washer and dryer included
  • Private outdoor space
  • Storage throughout
  • Central heating and cooling

A few useful answers

Before joining the list.

When will the homes be available?

Construction is underway and availability is currently expected in January 2027. We will share a firmer date as completion approaches.

Can I tour a home now?

Not yet. People on the priority list will receive the first tour information once the site is safe and the homes are far enough along to view properly.

Does joining the list reserve a unit?

No. The list provides updates and early notice of tours and applications. A home is not reserved until the property manager completes the required application and leasing process.

What will residents pay for utilities?

Residents will pay water, electricity and internet. Rockleaze will pay the gas service serving the furnaces in Units A and B.

What has been done to reduce sound between Units A and B?

The floor and ceiling assembly between the two homes includes spray-foam insulation to help reduce sound transfer. No stacked homes can eliminate every sound, but noise reduction was considered as part of the construction.

Are pets allowed?

Yes. Cats and dogs are welcome with monthly pet rent of $50 per pet and no size, breed or number limits. Pet rent does not apply to approved assistance animals.

How will applications be handled?

Applications, screening and leases will be handled through the property manager using the same published process and standards for every applicant.
