About Bethany Apartments
With traditional charm and a bit of modern flair, future residents will enjoy a host of features and amenities in these one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Hanover is considered one of the best of the South Shore towns with excellent school choices and a wide range of retail and grocery stores, restaurants and picturesque parks and playgrounds. This very convenient location is close by Routes 3, 53 & 139, and the MBTA Commuter Rail is just a short drive away, giving residents direct access to downtown Boston. Creating a vibrant community where residents have access to transportation, recreation and community resources was of paramount importance to the POUA development team. Added amenities include a vibrant community gathering space with kitchen, laundry care suite, resident lounge, bicycle storage and fitness center.
In addition, a local preference applies during the initial lottery process (see application for full details). Types of apartments available, along with rents and income limits are noted below.
