Cutting-edge quality and bountiful amenities help set Lépine Apartments apart
Enter a Lépine luxury apartment and the quality is immediately evident in the spaciousness, the details and the comfort that comes with a true home.
But what you see on the surface is only part of the story. Lépine luxury apartments are quality built from the inside out.
“Firstly, we build to last,” says Francis Lépine, the developer and visionary behind all of Lépine’s projects. “It’s not just for today or tomorrow. It is for generations to come.
“Our apartments are made to last centuries, like many builders used to do in the past. Now, many of their buildings are labelled historical, and they’re the pride of their cities.”
The thick concrete of Lépine’s luxury apartments more than lasts, it maximizes the thermal efficiency, soundproofing and comfort of the units like few others anywhere in Canada.
The mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems that feed them are installed for efficiency, ease of maintenance and reliability, providing residents with all the comforts and worry-free living they could want for the long term.
Apartment interiors are designed with comfort in mind, with spacious living areas and full-sized kitchens that are as large as those in most single-family homes. Many one-bedroom units are the size of a small bungalow — with none of the hassles of home ownership.
In the apartments’ kitchen area, two people can comfortably prepare meals on solid granite countertops. There’s ample counter space to work from, and lots of cabinets, including a full-height pantry unit and extra-high upper cabinets with loads of shelving.
Appliances include a combination microwave and hood fan unit, saving counter space. There’s a slide-in full-sized range and oven, refrigerator and dishwasher, all in stainless steel.
The dining areas have room for a good-sized table and sideboards.
Most bedrooms are designed to accommodate king-sized beds in the master bedroom and queens in the secondary bedroom.
Many units have a large multipurpose room perfectly suited for home offices, nurseries for babies and toddlers, TV rooms or occasional guest rooms.
Large ensuite bathrooms off the master bedroom include full-sized walk-in showers, wide vanities, linen closets and full-sized stacked washers and dryers. This means that laundry can be taken care of in the comfort and convenience of the tenant’s suite.
Secondary bathrooms are equipped with one-piece acrylic tub-and-shower units with curved shower curtain rods that provide a more relaxing and luxurious showering experience. Some one-bedroom units include two-piece powder rooms conveniently located to accommodate visitors or daily use.
Living areas generally include ceilings over nine feet (three metres) high and large panoramic patio doors leading to pleasant outdoor balconies that often look out over large, extensively landscaped inner courtyards.
The amenities in Lépine buildings are always clean, bright and accessible from the main floor.
The fitness centres are spacious, well equipped and infused with a private-club atmosphere. Each fitness centre is equipped with a multipurpose floor area designed for yoga, Pilates, aerobic and group exercise workouts.
Lépine’s skin-softening saltwater pools have been the training grounds for thousands of toddlers through the years as they learned to swim in environments free of chlorine odour under the tutelage of parents and grandparents alike.
They’re also handicapped user-friendly, welcoming all residents.
Lépine pools are surrounded by large, well-furnished decks that, like all of the amenities, encourage relaxation and social interaction. There are spacious changing rooms with lockers, bathing-suit spinners and washrooms.
“When you increase the space for amenities and complement them with elegant design, then you’re able to achieve a much better product,” says Lépine.
Growing a project, introducing multiple buildings or increasing the size of a single building is more than the sum of its parts, Lépine adds.
Indeed, at Lépine’s luxury apartments, you can both go big go home.
The real estate market in Ottawa is currently red hot with very little inventory available. Now’s the best time to sell your property and choose a carefree lifestyle without the concerns of home ownership.
Lépine Apartments is now leasing at Saint Emilion in Kanata Lakes, Howard Grant in Barrhaven, Johanne’s Court in Carleton Place and Les Terasses Francesca in Vanier.
