Cheswyck at Ballantyne Apartments

I have resided at Cheswyck at Ballantyne for one year and just renewed my lease. I am somewhat in awe of the negative reviews as I have had a very pleasant experience living here. First, the complex is very well-maintained, especially the beautiful grounds, the pools and other common areas. I have never had an issue with repair or maintenance that was not handled swiftly, effectively and courteously. The maintenance staff is very nice. I also don't understand the negativity regarding the office staff. I have found the staff to be consistently professional, friendly and attentive. As with all review forums, there will be those persons who, despite all efforts, cannot be pleased and possess a vindictive nature. I am not one of them. I am happy here and plan an extended residency here at Cheswyck. more

This is extremely worst apartment complex. There are serious problems and I hope Charlotte government authorities notice it. \r \r 1. The manager and assistant manager are very arrogant.\r 2. The apartments are in horrible condition. There are several problems which apartment leasing agents hide.\r 3. There is extreme Indian population so expect spice + sweat smell in the gym and while you are walking around. Well not all are same though. \r 4. Maintenance manager is absolutely arrogant. You need lawyer to speak with him. \r 5. The toilets flood and damage properties.\r 6. They installed security cameras and never sent notice to tenants. This was accepted by the sentinel corporation authority. (audio recording).\r 7. Swimming pool and tennis courts are occupied by bunch of Indians and they do not allow others to use it. Absolutely filthy smell all over.\r 8. The apartment complex has no policy over cigarette smoke. Expect your kids to suffer from smoke problems. I have email communications where they deny any action. \r 9. There is SERIOUS CAR PARKING PROBLEM !!!!\r \r please at any cost do not rent here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! more

This is a pleasant, charming and well-maintained (gated) community; there is not a lot of traffic, commotion or street noise. It's a very peaceful place to live!\r \r Yes, there are children\r ...but there are lots of places for them to play (and I rarely see them unsupervised).\r Yes, there are pets\r ...but maintenance keeps the many "doggie stations" well stocked, and residents a very good at picking up after their pets.\r Yes, there is diversity\r ...but ALL the neighbors I've met from all over the community are friendly and respectful.\r No, it's not THE cheapest place to live\r ...but Ballantyne in general is a higher-priced community. This only serves to bring in residents who earn a higher wage.\r \r The staff was initially extremely friendly and made sure to WOW me by exceeding my expectations. Well, I've lived here for almost 6 months and nothing has changed! They're still as gracious and professional as ever!!! more

Cheswyck at Ballantyne is a fun place to live! The layouts for their apartments are very nice and spacious--we enjoyed living here for almost a year. Staff is friendly and the rates can be quite competitive if you catch them at the right time! more
