Foxchase/Brandywine Apartments

I’ve lived at Foxchase for a while now, and honestly, this place is a nightmare. I don’t even know where to start because there are problems everywhere, from the buildings themselves to the management and everything in between. Let’s start with the townhomes. They are extremely old. Sure, management likes to say they are “renovated,” but that just means someone slapped on a coat of paint, maybe threw in some “new” appliances, and called it a day. The windows are basically from the 1970s, completely uninsulated, and drafty. It feels like they just patched things enough to rent them out again. Even little details are poorly thought out — the laundry closet, for example, has sliding closet-style doors. That makes no sense at all. You have to move wet clothes around just to put them in the dr

I recently moved to Foxchase/Brandywine from Phoenix, AZ without ever having been to Virginia before, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. The entire staff made me feel welcome from day one. Arianna and D’Aysa have been incredibly friendly and helpful. Catina and Victoria have created an inviting environment for new move-ins. And Sye has been outstanding throughout my entire move-in process — she walked me through the lease step by step and made everything feel smooth and stress-free, especially considering I moved across the country. I’m genuinely grateful for the team here and highly recommend this community to anyone looking for a place to call home.

Avoid this apartment complex. This was by far the worst place I have ever lived. From the day I moved in, I dealt with one issue after another: no hot water during winter, broken cabinets and doors, repeated AC and heater failures, and a dryer that never worked properly. Even after multiple complaints, management failed to fix the root causes, including clogged dryer vents that they ignored after I specifically raised the issue. To make matters worse, there were nails sticking out of the floor in several places, creating a serious safety hazard. The final insult came after I moved out before my due date and returned my key to the property management office, I received an email threatening daily charges if they did not receive my key. This place was poorly maintained, stressful to live i

I have loved my stay here so far. They scheduled maintenance right after I turned in the inspection form and came out to fix anything that we marked off. The office is very communicative overall and sweet every time we have been in contact. My neighbors are amazing, very sweet as well. Only thing I would add, the walls are a little thin and you can hear people upstairs frequently but that is to be expected in an apartment.

I live on the 2nd floor. You can hear your neighbors talking through the floor at night when you're trying to sleep. I regret renting an apartment over buying a house. It's 1am, I have work tomorrow morning. I'm glad I chose a short lease, but I do wish it was shorter. It's really luck that's going to determine whether or not you get the peace and quiet that you want. But if you like the idea of hearing your neighbors snore, the sounds of voices mumbling through the floors, the opening and closing of cabinets, this is the place for you. Maintenance is quick to respond at least. They responded to a ticket in less than 24 hours to adjust hinges, but the maintenance is quite literally the only reason this complex a positive rating.
