The perfect place to live might feel elusive, but The Falls—a newly opened Capano Residential apartment community, built overlooking the Brandywine Creek in Wilmington’s beautiful Highlands neighborhood, may come close. Built on the site of the historic Bancroft Mills, The Falls combines spacious apartment homes and upscale finishes with expansive public spaces and a one-in-a-million location to create the apartment community you’ve always dreamed about.
Here are five fantastic reasons to make The Falls your new home:
1. COMMUNITY AMENITIES
Bringing residents together was one of the biggest considerations in the design of The Falls. Among the 10,000 square feet of public areas at The Falls are multiple lounges, study niches and a library. There’s also an area designed specifically as a collaborative coworking space, eliminating the need for remote workers to pay extra fees for away-from-home desk space elsewhere. Meanwhile, the options for fun at The Falls are myriad. Play a frame of pool in the billiard room, take in a yoga class in the private fitness studio or hop on the treadmill in the state-of-the-art fitness center. In the warmer months, enjoy the more than 14,000 square feet of outdoor space by taking a dip in the pool or just lounging on the sundeck. And of course, there’s always the soothing rush of the Brandywine and the nearby falls (a relic of the site’s past as a textile mill) to calm you as you relax on the riverside deck. For those cool evenings, gather with your neighbors on the fireside deck or throw some steaks or veggie kabobs on the fire at the grilling station. Between its location on the Brandywine among natural wonders and the secure bicycle storage, The Falls makes it easy to enjoy the outdoors, too, even with your four-legged best friend. The Falls is dog friendly and offers a riverside dog walk area and dog washing stations.
2. GREAT FLOOR PLANS
The Falls offers residents smoke-free Studio, 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom apartment homes, most with balconies to take in the spectacular river and woodland view. All bedrooms include walk-in closets and each apartment includes its own front-load washer and dryer. If you or someone in your home needs a little extra workspace, one-bedroom homes are available with a study. Two-bedroom homes feature two full baths. Living spaces are laid out with an open floor plan, allowing for seamless transitions between the kitchen, dining and living areas.
3. FANTASTIC FINISHES
In addition to open floor plans, each home boasts high ceilings, wood plank flooring, Quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, tiled baths and nearly floor-to-ceiling windows to enjoy the spectacular river views. Every finish has been carefully curated for the ultimate living experience, and all homes feature high-end fixtures, lighting and hardware that makes an already impressive home feel even more luxurious.
4. THE VIEW
Brandywine Creek is a jewel in the crown of the Brandywine Valley after which it was named. Whether gazing from your living room window, the community river deck or the two-story lounge, you can take in the glory of all four seasons along this waterway situated at the center of the nation’s founding. With Alapocas Run State Park situated opposite The Falls, residents are guaranteed sweeping views of the water and serene woodlands.
5. THE LOCATION
With The Falls’ lush setting, there’s always the option of adventuring just steps from your door. Alapocas Run State Park offers hiking, biking, rock climbing and rappelling, athletic fields and a playground designed to be fully accessible. Also close by are beautiful Rockford Park and Brandywine Park, home of the Brandywine Zoo. For less rugged exploring, make the quick trip into downtown Wilmington to experience a city in the midst of an arts, culture and dining Renaissance. Whether your preference is Broadway-caliber theater, live music, great works of art, upscale and innovative dining or just finding a great place to gather with friends, The Falls put it all within reach.
