This is not a drill! Yes, you read that headline right: Our Rental of the Week is a 4-bedroom behemoth for $3K per month. This Bushwick duplex is beyond your wildest dreams of space, with multiple skylights and a luxe new kitchen to boot. Grab a roommate and run: At this price, you can both have your own bedroom and your own home office, for $1,500 per month each.

Address: 1143 Greene Ave. #3F

Price: $3,000

Size: 4-bedroom

Neighborhood: Bushwick

Best feature: Four bedrooms! Bay windows! Multiple skylights! One and a half baths! This Bushwick duplex has so many great features, it’s hard to choose. The living room ceiling soars to 20 feet high. There is so much space, and so much natural light. And the sleek kitchen boasts stainless appliances, including a dishwasher. To make life even easier, this apartment also has central air conditioning! So no need to block any of those beautiful windows with a clunky AC unit. There’s a laundry room in the basement, too.

In addition to all that, our Rental of the Week is in a hot neighborhood. This is central Bushwick, not way out on the outskirts. You’re close to Bed-Stuy and Williamsburg, and convenient to three different J/M/Z subway stops. Plus the neighborhood’s thriving restaurant scene is right nearby.

Why it’s a deal: The median asking rent for a Bushwick home with 3 or more bedrooms is $2,600, according to StreetEasy’s Data Dashboard. (That’s down from $3,000 in 2020, before the pandemic.) So our Rental of the Week is actually a bit higher than average for the neighborhood. But it’s a duplex, and it’s practically made for roommates. Share this place with a pal, and each of you gets your own bedroom plus a second bedroom to use however you please. Home office? Remote learning space? Giant walk-in closet? The possibilities are endless. All for $1,500 per month each. Now that’s what we call a deal.

Biggest drawback: This Bushwick duplex has 1.5 bathrooms. That means, even with so much space, roommates will still have to share a shower. And the listing does not provide a floor plan, which makes the layout hard to picture. For example, you don’t know where the bathrooms are located in relation to the bedrooms. Or whether those upstairs rooms have regular windows, or just skylights. Regardless, this is a fantastic opportunity that certainly won’t last. Request a tour on the listing to see it in person!
