Maumee, OH 65 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Located just south of Toledo, Ohio along the Maumee River, the City of Maumee combines the feel of a small town with big-city amenities and employment. The Maumee River was once part of the Wabash-Erie Canal, a waterway that connected Lake Erie with the Ohio River at Evansville, Indiana. The city of Maumee, the site of an important War of 1812 battle, developed in the late 20th century to be a regional economic mecca. Maumee is home to a regional UPS distribution center as well as the headquarters of Dana Corporation, The Andersons home improvement stores and Paramount Health Care Systems. Maumee was once the county seat of Lucas County, but lost that distinction to Toledo in 1854. View Maumee 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 Maumee renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
