Lexington, NC

32 Apartments for Rent with Parking

Lexington is located within the Piedmont Triad of North Carolina, which means that it’s in close proximity to three great major cities. You’ll find Winston-Salem about 20 miles to the north, High Point 18 miles east, and Greensboro 30 miles northeast. Suburban development has recently made Lexington into a bedroom community of these larger cities. That means that you’ll find a great, diverse rental market here, with everything from studio apartments to large rental homes available.

Now, let’s talk about the important stuff: Lexington’s famous barbecue. There’s only one right way to have it: pork shoulder cooked over a hardwood fire and served with red slaw. With approximately one barbecue restaurant per 1,000 residents, you’ll want to allow yourself plenty of time to sample and compare the offerings. If that isn’t enough for you, the annual barbecue festival will douse you in more pig blood than Carrie on prom night.

Most long-time Lexington residents maintain a serious distrust of large rental properties. However, the recent influx of young professionals commuting to the Piedmont Triad cities has brought in some posh apartment rental development.

The most notorious of these posh rentals is the Reserve at Regents Center. Located in the far eastern portion of town near the medical center, this huge development offers short term lease deals and has tons of amenities including a gym, swimming pool, and clubhouse. Unfortunately, all this convenience comes with slightly higher price tag. These two bedrooms are some of the most expensive in town, ranging from $600 to $750.

You’ll find a handful of other large and fairly decent Lexington apartment complexes — including the well-regarded Forest Ridge — scattered throughout town. Many of these apartment rentals have similar features to the Reserve at a lower cost. Two bedrooms in other Lexington apartment complexes generally range from $500 to $700.

The best deal in Lexington real estate is by and large the fantastic houses for rent. Regardless of size or feature, you’ll be sure to locate a wonderful rental home or a duplex with great small town North Carolina charm. Two bedroom rental homes range from $500 to $700.

I’ve got great news for animal lovers! Lexington rentals are by and large incredibly pet friendly. Most apartment complexes and rental homes are both cat and dog friendly. Some may require an additional pet deposit, but overall Fido and Fluffy will be welcomed with open paws.

So welcome to Lexington! Enjoy all that this up-and-coming Piedmont Triad city has to offer! See more

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Lexington apartments offer parking options, either outside in a common area or within a private garage.

Ask about the stipulations around the parking. Those may include how many guests are allowed and where tenants park.

Some apartments may only allow parking in front of your own unit. Guest parking may be in a common area for up to one person.

If parking is scarce, look around the area before you sign a lease. Ample street parking in a neighborhood championed for its safety is probably fine. However, it’s probably not worth signing a lease if it means battling for daily parking for you and your guests.

Research whether you need a city permit to park in the neighborhood. Look into the associated costs and what to do about visitors who need parking.

Some tenants prefer garage parking near their units. However, an open-air lot may prove cheaper.

Keep in mind that the cost of wear and tear from parking outside can add up. It may be less expensive, in the long run, to look for an apartment with garage parking.
