South Bridge Gardens

I lived here for two years and it was overall a great experience. The location is amazing - only a couple of blocks to the NJ Transit train station and another couple of blocks to Somerville downtown. The neighborhood is safe and quiet, and family friendly. Price is decent for all that as well. What I liked the most was the management staff and the superintendent. When renewing the lease after a year, I expressed my concerns that I might have to move out in the middle of the contract period. ... Without any questions, they made modifications to my contract so I wouldn't have to worry about terminating within the contract period. I ended up living until the end of the lease even when my commute became 3 hours everyday, because I couldn't find any place I liked better than this one. Also, the superintendent is super responsive and responsible. I have never seen a superintendent so consistently great with responding to any requests at any hour of any day. Highly recommend this place! Read More

Our apartment was incredible. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet and clean place to live. The realtors, the super, and the landlords are all understanding and helpful and easy to work with. No issues whatsoever.

If you are looking to move to Somerville, this is a great starter apartment to get settled in. Junior is the super who manages the whole property and he does a great job. It is also awesome having a w/d in the unit versus having to go outside. This complex is less than a 10 minute walk from downtown and makes living in Somerville more affordable. Thank you so much Junior for all you have done!

The complex is very old. Renovations include peeling paint and new appliances…it is difficult to get maintenance man to follow up with issues, much less contact him in the first place. Not enough storage space as you can see in the pictures. The walls are too thin we can hear the neighbors walking, talking, snoring, using the toilet etc…not their fault but rather a fault in the structure of the building.no thermostat so we can’t control the heat…the baseboard heaters will turn on randomly... throughout the winter making the rooms stuffy and sweaty. Many bugs in the summer. There are less stressful accommodations nearby for a similar price. Read More

They claim to have renovated the whole place but they only covered up the "ugly". We moved in just over a month ago and we've already had maintenance issues. I've had to call "maintenance" for clogged toilet, no heat in February!, no hot water in the bath, no hot water to washing machine, electric outlets not working, leak from upstairs apartment into our bathroom and a new leak that just bubbled up the pain and exploded in our living room. All these issues and not even 2 months after move-in.... The "maintenance" person does not work on weekends and flat out turns off the phone. We've had the leaks for 2 days now and no response from him at all and today is Friday, so not sure what the excuse is. We went to get him at his apartment and were dismissed because "he wasn't there". One of my windows has a hole that we mentioned at move-in, and another window that doesnt lock, still nothing has been done. It took us about 1 month just to get internet here! Neighbors had the same issue. Everything flooded here and lines had to be redone. I regret having moved in here. There's no need for tenants to have to be chasing "maintenance". Paying rent is also annoying because you have to mail it in or drive up to them since there is no office on the premises. You can pay online, but you guessed it... I had issues with that too!! They never assigned me an account number. Everyone I called said to call someone else. Just avoid moving here. Many other options out there. Read More
