When searching for apartment living in Nashville, TN that offers everything all in one location, plan a visit to Stewarts Ferry. The luxury community offers 1 and 2-bedroom apartments situated on beautifully manicured grounds with stocked fishing ponds. With 1 indoor and 4 outdoor pools, tennis and racquet ball courts, fitness center and a one-mile track for jogging or walking, you have plenty of entertainment right outside your front door.
With such a green and energy efficient apartment, using home made non-toxic cleaners is a good way to support the environment.
- Mix equal parts of vinegar and water to make a solution for cleaning windows that leaves them clear, streak free and sparkling.
- A non-toxic solution for damp mopping floors combines warm water and ¼ cup of mild dishwashing liquid.
- Sprinkle baking soda on a clean, damp sponge to remove scuff marks from floors and walls. Baking soda is also used to clean tile, counters, and bathtubs.
- For hard water build up and stains in items such as drinking glasses, cups, glass coffee canisters, and vases, mix ½ cup of lemon juice with ½ cup of water. Place liquid in the container for a few hours then wash and rinse.
