Townhome or Apartment? Choosing the Right Layout at Residences at Brookline
When you’re searching for a new home in north Charlotte, the choice isn’t always just how many bedrooms you need. At Residences at Brookline, you can choose between traditional apartments and townhome-style floor plans. Each offers a different way to live. Here’s how to decide.
Apartment Living: Simple and Efficient
Brookline’s one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments offer single-level living with open layouts, nine-foot ceilings, wood-style floors and chef-inspired kitchens with granite countertops and islands. Apartments are a great fit if you want easy upkeep and everything on one floor.
Townhome Living: More Space and Separation
Townhome floor plans give you a more house-like feel, with living and sleeping areas on separate levels. That separation is a big plus for roommates, families, or anyone who works from home and wants a little distance between the office and the rest of the house.
How to Choose
- Choose an apartment if you prefer single-level living, want a simpler layout or are moving solo
- Choose a townhome if you want more separation between spaces, are sharing with roommates or family, or want a more home-like feel
- Consider your schedule: Townhomes help when household members keep different hours
- Think about storage: Brookline also offers attached and detached garages for extra space
