A new apartment complex is set to rise in the northern part of Cordova, marking a unique development for the area. Springs at Colonial Apartments is coming to the Countrywood neighborhood, adjacent to the Colonial Country Club golf course and just off Rockcreek Parkway. Once completed, ten apartment buildings will house 296 units, with an original estimated completion date of early 2025 when construction began in March.

Design and Features

The complex's website describes the apartments as "townhome" in design. Most floorplans offer an open layout, featuring granite countertops, hardwood floors, and small private balconies for some plans. Walk-in closets and in-house washers and dryers are also included. Additionally, residents have access to a swimming pool, an on-site car care center, a 24-hour fitness center, and an outdoor area for pets. While pets are generally allowed, certain dog breeds such as bull terriers, pit bulls, Rottweilers, and Dobermans are prohibited.

Varied Floor Plans and Pricing

There will be 38 different floor plans to choose from, ranging in size from 560 square feet to 1,384 square feet. The pricing starts at $1,405 for the smallest studio apartments and can go up to $2,775 for the three-bedroom units. The median price for these 38 plans is $1,990.

Part of a Larger Development

Springs at Colonial is a part of the larger $400 million mixed-use development, Legacy at Colonial, which broke ground in December 2022. This 170-acre project will ultimately include 305 senior living residences, 541 single-family homes, 301 multifamily units, a 130-room hotel, and 40,000 square feet of retail space, along with 37 acres of greenspace.In northern Cordova, most apartment complexes are quite old. The most recent complex built before Springs at Colonial was The Charleston Apartments at Houston Levee and U.S. 64, which was constructed in 2016.
