About The Mulberry Apartments
Built in 1925, The Mulberry is a well-preserved art deco building that sits upon almost a half-acre of mature landscaping and well-manicured grounds. Beautiful French doors welcome residents through the main entry to a charming lobby. There are a mix of 30 studio and 1-bedroom apartment homes, most with original hardwood flooring, large double-hung windows, vintage architectural elements & crown molding, classic wardrobes with built-in bureaus & drawers offering ample storage space. Kitchens feature classic vintage latch cabinetry, original formica countertops, and dining nooks while bathrooms showcase original hex-tile flooring, subway tile wainscoting, deep porcelain tubs and pedestal sinks. The Mulberry has a common access entry, bicycle storage, garages (dependent upon availability) & laundry facilities onsite.
