Our community offers five spacious floor plans, any of which will allow you to create the perfect in-home atmosphere. Our one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments for rent feature a kitchen with breakfast bar, large closets, and an in-unit washer and dryer. You’ll also enjoy relaxing on our expansive patios and, in select homes, decorating your additional office space.

You’ll have everything you need just a short distance from your door at Waterford Place. Our 24-hour fitness center is available for your wellness needs, alongside our uniquely designed pool, perfect for swimming laps. You can also spend time relaxing in our spa or kicking back in our sophisticated clubhouse. Venture just a little farther out and you’ll find restaurants, retail, and attractions are all within easy reach. A few minutes’ farther will take you to beautiful Rosemary Gardens Park and downtown San Jose.
