Heathcote, NJ 114 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Heathcote is a small, census-designated place in Middlesex County, New Jersey. This community is something of a far-outlying suburb to the city of New Brunswick - not to be confused with the Canadian province, which isn't really too far away, either. At the last census, there were just over 5,800 citizens in Heathcote, surrounded by numerous forested tracts, national parks and endless hiking and campgrounds. There are miles of dedicated bicycle trails in and around these parks and reserves, as well as many people who travel to the region to ride them. One thing's for sure - Heathcote is located in one of the freshest, airy regions in all of New Jersey! View Heathcote 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 Heathcote renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
