When it comes to the allure of city living, most people think of having improved access to culture, entertainment, work, transportation. What doesn’t show up on those mental checklists is greenspace; many assume they’ll have to give up their gardens and yards for an urban lifestyle.

At Lépine Apartments, we believe in providing the best of all worlds. We understand the value of urban greenspaces, for both the environment and our residents. Thriving gardens and abundant greenery increase biodiversity, reduce greenhouse gases and mitigate the heat island effect, helping to combat climate change. And they bring beauty and a sense of calm to urban dwellers.

Located in prime neighbourhoods across Eastern Ontario, our premium communities are built with nature in mind. By implementing underground parking, Lépine opens space for a more creative aesthetic that optimizes the natural world. Whenever possible, we integrate existing mature trees into our landscape design. We also nurture native plant species, enabling a long growing season for our gardens and greenspaces.

This approach elevates Lépine Apartments well beyond standard urban communities. Our thoughtfully planned properties invite residents to linger on the terrace or enjoy barbecues in our gazebos, with ponds and flowing fountains nearby. In the background, squirrels and rabbits scamper while songbirds tweet. This welcoming environment encourages residents to spend more time outside, exposing them to nature’s essential cues: sunlight and fresh air help keep us in tune with our natural rhythms, leading to better sleep, mood and mental health.

Lépine’s orchards and hedged walkways also offer spaces for outdoor activity, which is vital for physical and mental wellbeing.

A beautiful space to call your own

Part of feeling at home is being able to leave your individual touch on the spaces you inhabit. While Lépine staff takes pride in maintaining the grounds, we welcome residents to exercise their own green thumbs. Gardens are an extension of your home, and we want residents to feel that they can plant and tend to the personal gardens, both at ground level and on our rooftop terraces—prime spots for planters, pots and vases.

Not only does gardening offer mental and physical rewards, including stress reduction, but it also provides a sense of ownership and contribution. If you’re making the move from a standalone home, having the opportunity to cultivate your own space at Lépine Apartments can help ease the transition. You’ll enjoy all the advantages of luxury city living without leaving behind pastimes you love.

We proudly provide all the comforts of home, because at Lépine, you are home.
