“This marks TPCO’s third asset recap completed this calendar year,” said Adam Byrley, chief operating officer. “We continue to seek assets that will benefit from targeted capital improvement plans, allowing us to provide a superior, ‘like-new’ product for our tenants. We believe our familiarity with the Auburn market, coupled with the interior upgrades and popularity of the cottage-style units, will produce an unmatchable product that will resonate with the community.”

Located minutes from Auburn University at 721 Aspen Heights Lane, the complex provides 2-, 3- and 4-bedroom floor plans. Each unit features private bathrooms and bedrooms with walk-in closets, chic modern finishes, open-concept floor plans with ample storage space, full-size washer and dryer and a bonus half-bath on the first floor for guests. The pet-friendly cottages and townhomes boast stained concrete flooring throughout the common areas, plush bedroom carpeting, patios and front porches. Spacious kitchens are equipped with granite countertops, sleek black appliances and shaker cabinets with brushed nickel hardware. Residents may enjoy a variety of additional amenities, including a 24/7 fitness center, outdoor Olympic-sized pool, basketball court, tanning salon, volleyball court, game room, movie theater and full-service business center.

The multi-million dollar renovation plans include upgrading 3-, and 4-bedroom units with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and refreshing interior paint schemes.
