When you're searching for your next apartment in Virginia Beach, there's more to consider than location and amenities. The layout of your space can have a huge impact on your daily life. Whether you’re living solo, sharing with a roommate, or working from home, finding the right floor plan can make all the difference.

At Columbus Station Apartments, we offer several thoughtfully designed layouts to suit different lifestyles. Here’s a helpful guide to choosing the right one for you.

🛋️ Start with the Basics: How Much Space Do You Need?

The most obvious place to start is square footage, but bigger isn’t always better. If you’re a minimalist, frequently on the go, or furnishing your space for the first time, a smaller layout might feel more comfortable and easier to maintain. On the flip side, if you’re planning to work from home or need storage space, a little more room can go a long way.
