This could be a really nice place to live if it were not for the Property Management Company, Stanford.
Apartments without closet doors, dirty carpeting in halls, washing machines that constantly break down, leaky roof, mold in dining room ceiling, tenants smoking in their apartments, things being stolen, lack of snow removal and shoveling, bed bug outbreak and the building has a huge mouse problem.

If it weren't for the lack of maintenance I could have given a 4 or 5 star rating. The location is great if you like rural living. It's close to the highway. Right now the issue is bed bugs that have gone untreated for almost 3 weeks. The people having been living in a bed bug infested apartment for almost 3 weeks. This is the second infestation of bed bugs. The first was last summer. Lawn care is an issue. The flowers are maintained by elderly tenants otherwise the flowers would die. Dirty... carpeting in common areas. A leaky roof that was installed a year and a half ago. Old washers and driers that breakdown, get fixed, breakdown, get fixed. Keeping walkways clear of snow is not a top priority in the winter. Outdated appliances. Items have been stolen. Read More

If you can ignore the maintenance issues, Bowdoinham Estates is a very quiet place to live. The apartments are original to the building with a few cosmetic updates only. If a tenant has occupied their apparent for an extended period of time (say 14 - 20 years) the management company does not update carpeting, paint, or appliances. Nor do they want tenants to do any painting in the apartments. Carpeting in the hallways are dirty and stained.
