Walkersville, MD 104 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Walkersville, Maryland, is a small town in Frederick County. The town claimed 5,800 residents as of the 2010 census, and it is a safe, suburban area. The town itself is just shy of five square miles, and it's bisected by Maryland Route 194. Walkersville has a lot of farmland, and the buildings and residences tend to be fairly spread out. This means that Walkersville is actually not that walkable -- how's that for irony? However, what it lacks in walkability, Walkersville makes up in peace and quiet. View Walkersville City Guide

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.

Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.

You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.

Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.

Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.

Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Walkersville renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
