Your backyard

A fenced backyard with a deck, off every home

The backyard is the point of this place. Every home has its own fenced yard with a deck, reached through the dining area, not a shared lawn and not a balcony over a parking lot. This page is about what that changes.

What you get

A private, fenced backyard with a deck behind every home, off the dining area. It is yours: a table and a grill on the deck, a garden along the fence, a place for the kids or the dog to be outside, a place to sit in the evening without sharing it with the building. The deck comes off the dining room, so the inside and the outside are one space when the door is open.

Why it is rare in an apartment

Most rentals give you a balcony or a patch of common grass. A fenced yard that belongs only to your home is a single-family feature, and it is the reason these live like small houses rather than apartments. It pairs with the rest of the layout: bedrooms upstairs, nobody above or below you, and central heat and air inside for the desert summer.

Which homes have it

All of them. The homes are one, two and three bedroom townhomes. The single-level one bedroom is about 660 square feet from $1,050 a month, the two bedroom townhome about 930 square feet from $1,395, and the three bedroom townhomes run to about 1,236 square feet. Every home has central heat and air, a gas range, and a dining area that opens onto its own fenced backyard with a deck. Each open home shows its current rent on the availability page.

Is the backyard fenced?

Can I have a grill or a garden in the backyard?
