share

Choosing your ideal apartment rental in Winnipeg, Lorette, or Ste. Anne isn't just about the location—it's about finding a layout that genuinely enhances your daily life. At Northtowne Properties, we offer a range of modern floor plans designed with your comfort and unique needs in mind.

Here is a guide to help you find the perfect Northtowne apartment layout for your lifestyle:

The Solo Professional or Minimalist Couple: One-Bedroom Apartments

A one-bedroom layout is the ultimate choice for efficiency, prioritizing a manageable living space that is easy to maintain and keep organized.

  • Ideal For: Singles, couples, or those committed to minimalist living.
  • Lifestyle Match: Residents who want a separate sleeping area but spend most of their time in the main living space or out in the community.
  • The Northtowne Advantage: Our one-bedroom apartments offer the modern features you expect, like in-suite laundry and high-efficiency appliances, ensuring you get top-tier amenities without paying for extra space you don't need. The open layouts in many of our luxury rentals make the entire apartment feel airy and bright.

Remote Worker, or Young Family: Two-Bedroom Apartments

The two-bedroom unit offers essential versatility, making it one of the most popular choices for modern renters in Manitoba.

  • Lifestyle Match: Requires balancing shared space with privacy. The second room can be transformed into a productive work-from-home setup, a hobby room, or a nursery.
  • The Northtowne Advantage: Our two-bedroom apartments in Winnipeg and Southeast Manitoba often feature our hallmark open-concept living areas. For roommates, we offer great locations near transit and city amenities, while families benefit from our pet-friendly policies and proximity to parks.

The Growing Family or Multi-Generational Household: Three-Bedroom Apartments & Townhomes

When maximizing space and privacy is the goal, three-bedroom layouts are the perfect solution, often found in our spacious townhome-style properties.

  • Ideal For: Larger families, residents who need a dedicated guest room and a home office, or roommates who want ample personal space.
  • Lifestyle Match: Requires dedicated space for children, quiet areas for study, and large common areas for family interaction and hosting.
  • The Northtowne Advantage: Our three-bedroom townhomes, such as those at Mackinley Towns, offer exceptional square footage and the convenience of multiple bathrooms. Notably, these units may offer the added protection of a garage, a huge benefit for families needing storage and protection from the Manitoba winter.

Matching Your Layout to Your Life

When viewing apartments, consider more than just the number of rooms:

  • Natural Light: Note how much light fills the unit. Our open layouts and large windows are designed to maximize daylight in every season.
  • Storage: Always check for ample closet space! Our modern designs aim to integrate smart storage solutions.
  • Pet-Friendliness: If you have a dog, ensure the layout is practical for them and don't forget to check out the fenced dog parks at properties like Bellemore Banks and Mackinley Towns.

Your apartment should reflect and support your lifestyle. Use this guide to help you refine your search for apartment rentals and find the perfect Northtowne apartment layout to call home!
