Plainville is a well-kept secret among those who live there, providing the rural charm of a small town with easy access to Providence and Boston, Rtes. 1, 95 and 495. Plainville is the home of Village Green, a community juxtaposed between rolling farmland and conservation areas. The community is close to Gillette Stadium, home of New England Patriots and Patriot Place, the new shopping and entertainment facility.
Homes feature a variety of studio, one and two bedroom apartments with modern kitchens, dining areas, and patios or balconies. The 23-acre site with 399 apartments features large, well-landscaped courtyards, a clubhouse with adjacent resort-style pool, a business and computer center, state-of-the art fitness center, saunas and tennis courts. Planned renovations will provide a movie theatre, juice bar and multi-purpose room. Hallway upgrades will begin shortly. Village Green is pet friendly, an amenity increasingly sought by prospective residents.
CHR acquired Village Green in late 2007. Many of the on-site staff chose to join CHR after the acquisition. Coincidentally, the property manager had previously worked for CHR. "She was familiar with CHR and its staff and procedures and that made things easier for CHR and for the on-site Village Green staff. The fact that we have so many individuals on staff committed to the property and who have a history with it is a real benefit. That consistency is also helpful to the resident population, which has been amazingly stable," say Donna Coccia, regional property manager.

One of the first things that CHR accomplished at the property was a variety of curb appeal improvements, including a major restoration of the lawns and planting beds. Today residents are greeted by lush lawns and beautiful flowers through the fall, spring and summer.
