Living in an apartment often means working with limited square footage, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice comfort or organization. At Marsh Properties, thoughtful layouts, sunny windows, and smart floorplans make it easier than ever to create a space that’s both beautiful and functional. With a few smart strategies, you can make the most of every inch while keeping your space both stylish and functional.

1. Over-the-Door Organizers: Use the back of closet, pantry or bathroom doors to store everything from shoes and cleaning supplies to toiletries and snacks. These organizers are renter-friendly and add storage without taking up any floor space. In Marsh Properties communities, spacious closets and well-placed doors make this a simple, impactful solution.
2. Under-Furniture Storage: Make use of overlooked spaces under your bed, sofa or even armchairs. Slide in low-profile storage bins or baskets to keep off-season clothing, books or extra linens neatly tucked away.
3. Magnetic Strips for Small Items: Attach magnetic strips inside kitchen cabinets or above desks to hold metal tools, spices or beauty items like tweezers and nail clippers. It’s a sleek way to keep essentials in reach without cluttering drawers. With updated kitchens and built-in cabinetry in many Marsh communities, there’s ample opportunity to create these clever customizations.
4. Floating Shelves with Hidden Hooks: Install floating shelves that come with concealed hooks underneath. This gives you a place to display decorative items on top while using the hooks for bags, hats, keys or kitchen utensils below — form and function in one!

Bonus Tip: Think Like a Minimalist

Before adding more storage, consider if you can simplify first. Living with less not only frees up space, but it also creates a calmer, more intentional home environment. With Marsh Properties’ open layouts with natural light, even minimal décor feels warm and welcoming.

No matter the size of your apartment at Marsh Properties, the right storage strategies can make a big impact. By thinking creatively and staying organized, you can create a home that feels spacious, efficient, and uniquely yours.
