Living at Hampshire Tower: Affordable, Convenient, and Two Miles From DC

Hampshire Tower Apartments in Takoma Park, Maryland has been part of ORLO's portfolio for years, known for its major electrification project and its resilience hub. But for the residents who actually live there, the day-to-day appeal comes down to something simpler: location and predictable costs.

All Utilities Included, No Surprises

One of the most consistent frustrations for renters anywhere is budgeting around utility bills that fluctuate month to month. At Hampshire Tower, all utilities are included in rent. One payment, no surprise bills during a cold snap or a hot summer. For residents managing a tight budget, that predictability matters as much as the rent amount itself.

Two Miles From DC, Steps From Transit

Hampshire Tower sits at 7401 New Hampshire Avenue in Takoma Park, just two miles from Washington, DC, and within walking distance of the Takoma-Langley Transit Center. That gives residents direct access to the Purple Line light rail and easy connections throughout Montgomery County and into the District.

For residents commuting into DC for work or school, that kind of transit access removes a major cost and stress factor that comes with car-dependent commuting.

A Community That Welcomes Pets

Hampshire Tower is cat-friendly, allowing up to two cats per apartment. It's a detail that matters more than it might seem. For a lot of residents, housing options narrow quickly once a pet is in the picture, and having a straightforward, affordable policy in place removes one more barrier to finding a stable home.

Part of ORLO's Long-Term Commitment

Hampshire Tower has been a focus of ORLO's investment in affordable, sustainable housing for years, including a major electrification project and the first privately owned resilience hub of its kind. That infrastructure work happens behind the scenes, but it's part of what keeps the building running reliably for the residents who live there day to day.
