About a year ago, I went through the process of trying to find an apartment here in South Jersey. I found that it wasn't exactly easy dealing with realtors or property owners who were sometimes difficult to track-down and some places weren't anywhere near where I wanted to live. Then I found Hamilton Greene apartments in Mays Landing -- I absolutely love it.

And there's lots happening there! Allow me to introduce you to The Glades at Hamilton Greene. It's a brand new 220-unit apartment complex on the Black Horse Pike in Mays Landing. The Glades offers one and two bedroom apartments with seven very unique floor plans and no shortage of absolutely amazing features.

How amazing? Here are my five top things that I love about The Glades at Hamilton Greene...

1. On the outside, imagine pulling-up to a brand new apartment and driving right into your own garage. Yes, The Glades at Hamilton Greene has many apartments with garages. No more fighting for a parking spot or having to scrape ice and snow off of your car -- this is apartment living with your own garage.

Here's a look at one of the floor plans that comes with a garage:

2. Once inside, imagine living in an apartment that's up to 1,400-square-feet with an optional den, an open floor plan and huge closets. Imagine getting out of bed in the morning, making a cup of coffee in a kitchen that has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and sipping on your beverage out on your private balcony.

3. The Glades at Hamilton Greene is close to everything yet it's nice and quiet. What's within a 2-mile radius of The Glades at Hamilton Greene? How about Hamilton Mall, Walmart, Target, Acme, Kohl's, Best Buy, Regal Cinemas, restaurants offering practically every type of food you can think of, and more? And while the hustle and bustle of the Black Horse Pike is close-by, you won't know it as The Glades is set back off of the Black Horse Pike, offering you peace and quiet.

4. The Glades at Hamilton Greene is pet friendly. Finding the right apartment is tough as it is -- finding an apartment that is pet friendly is even tougher. Many times while looking for an apartment, I found places that I wanted to look into but they weren't pet friendly. The Glades at Hamilton Greene welcomes pets and they even have a dog park where your furry friend can run around.

5. Amenities everywhere. Why should you move into The Glades at Hamilton Greene? How about a 24/7 gym for residents that is within walking distance from every apartment? In the summer, relax next to the huge pool under a shaded cabana -- and the kid's section of the pool is huge! When the kids are done at the pool, they can visit the playground while you play a round of tennis.

The Glades at Hamilton Greene is now leasing and you can move-in as soon as this spring. Flexible leasing terms that can cover just about any length of time that you might need are available. Although The Glades' offices are closed for live tours at this time, their team can host a virtual tour with you. You’ll get the full experience as if you were actually there, from the comfort of your own home! Click here to learn more.
