Des Moines, IA Apartments with Lofts for Rent

Are you dreaming of the perfect loft apartment in Des Moines? Apartment Finder helps you find a great loft that’s within your budget. Loft-style apartments have distinctive features like exposed brick walls, open floor plans, and large windows. Now a trendy style choice, lofts became popular when artists and musicians moved into abandoned warehouses during the 1960s. Much like studio apartments, lofts have very few interior walls. However, lofts tend to be much larger than studio apartments, often with 10-foot ceilings.

Today, most traditional lofts are located in historic warehouses. However, because loft apartments are so popular and old warehouses are limited, modern lofts are built in newer apartment communities to mimic the look of the traditional loft. Modern lofts for rent might have features and amenities that traditional lofts in busy city centers cannot provide, including swimming pools and fitness centers. Traditional lofts tend to be in popular neighborhoods like art and theater districts, putting residents within walking distance to some of the best restaurants, shops, and nightlife in Des Moines.

Whether you want the trendy sophistication and history of a traditional loft apartment or the affordability of a modern cheap loft, Apartment Finder helps you find the best place for you and your budget. Ready to start enjoying those lofty views? Find your Des Moines loft for rent today.
