Purcellville, VA

54 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

The town has a long and storied history dating back to 1740, although most people had never heard of it until stagecoaches started passing through over 90 years later. The town has served as a way point on both coach trails and railroads ever since. Purcellville prides itself on its agricultural heritage and the Victorian-style houses which line Main Street. Recently, the town has seen a fair amount of expansion in its population because of its proximity to Washington and, unlike most other places in this region, an improvement in its traffic conditions. Today, the community serves as a residential location for those who seek the convenience of living in a small town without all the noise, pollution and lack of space found in a big city, namely Washington D.C.

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