Renovated means renovated
Renovated kitchens and baths at The Jefferson
The word renovated gets used loosely. At The Jefferson it means the parts you live with every day were replaced, not touched up. Every photo on the site was taken in these apartments.
The kitchen
New shaker cabinets, a subway-tile backsplash, new countertops and new appliances, with a stove and refrigerator included. It photographs well because it is actually new.

The bath and the rest
The bath is retiled around the tub and shower, with a new vanity and new fixtures: redone, not patched. New flooring and fresh paint run through the whole apartment, with updated lighting, ceiling fans and roomy closets in both bedrooms.
The same across every home
This is the standard in every two-bedroom here, not a single model unit. Walk the actual home you would rent before you sign. Every home is a renovated two-bedroom, one bath, about 850 square feet, with a new kitchen, a redone bath, new flooring and fresh paint, and a stove and refrigerator included. Live pricing is on the availability page.
