CROMWELL, CT (February 14, 2019) – A $48 million expansion at Covenant Village of Cromwell (CVOC) will include 54 one- and two-bedroom apartments and a new Town Center.

The Town Center will include three dining venues, an art studio, wellness center, and event center. So far, 87 percent of the new apartments have been sold.
