Patchogue, NY 110 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Patchogue, technically a village, is located on the south shore of Long Island. No, it's not the Hamptons. But yes, it does have lovely bay-front property where you can boat and do water sports. The village was founded in 1893, and it's just about 60 miles from Manhattan, making it somewhat of a commuter town. While many people leave to go west for work and east for play, Patchogue itself is a lovely little Long Island community with plenty to keep residents well-fed and well-entertained.

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