137 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Migrating geese are not the only airborne beings to lay a claim to Bethpage, as McCullagh's poem describes. For many years, Bethpage was home to the Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation. Not only did they manufacture F-14 Tomcats, but they also made the lunar modules used by NASA during the Apollo moon landings. That may be reason enough to migrate to the area yourself! Situated on Long Island, NY close to Oyster Bay, Bethpage's history stretches back to colonial times. Nowadays, most people know of Bethpage because of its state park, which has no less than five golf courses on it. One of these, known as the Black Course, was chosen as the home of the U.S. Open Championship in 2002 and 2009. See more

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 Bethpage renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
