You’ve probably heard about the many perks of living in Astoria and Sunnyside. But have you ever considered Ridgewood, Queens as a future home? Ridgewood is a neighborhood that straddles the Queens-Brooklyn boundary, giving you the best of both boroughs. It’s also an incredible neighborhood for bikers. If your interest is piqued (and we hope it is!), read on for five Ridgewood rentals under $2800 per month. And don’t forget about the hundreds more listings available on StreetEasy here.
First up on our list of Ridgewood rentals under $2800 is this 1-bedroom unit in a covetable luxury building. A bright yellow front door sets the tone for a cheerful living space complete with hardwood floors and flexible layout. The open kitchen boasts new cabinetry and a cheeky patterned backsplash, while the bathroom sports gleaming subway tile and fun wallpaper in the shower. $2550 per month gets you access to building amenities such as a private gym, laundry room, and a rooftop deck.
Once you step foot in this peaceful paradise, you’ll never want to leave. We’re talking of course about this $2750 per month 1-bedroom apartment in The Ridgewood. Oversized exposures illuminate the unit’s soothing white walls and light oak wood flooring. The kitchen is a work of art, with gleaming white and refined gray cabinets, plus top-of-the-line appliances. The bathroom makes a splash with its delicate porcelain tiling and matte black finishes. The tranquil aesthetic extends into the lobby of the building itself. Don’t wait – apply for this affordable housing lottery today!
Next up we have this charming 1-bedroom home with a super flexible living/dining space off the massive open kitchen. The bedroom benefits from two large windows with views of the idyllic neighborhood below. In addition to boasting close access to multiple parks, all the nightlife and restaurants of Bushwick are just a quick walk, train, or bike ride away. And at just $2250 per month, this is the most affordable unit on our list. Sweet!
Our only 2-bedroom offering on this list, this $2700 per month home is something special. It’s got a fresh coat of paint and remarkable kitchen renovations — you can literally still see the new tags on the oven in the listing photos. Each bedroom offers generous square footage and natural light. Plus, it comes with a spacious backyard. Bring on the barbecues!
Cinephiles rejoice! Our last featured Ridgewood rental under $2800 is this gorgeous 1-bedroom home located in a converted historic movie theater. We love the Instagram-worthy wood shelves in the kitchen that bookend a functional hooded range and oven. The home benefits from generous storage space, including a large closet in the pristine bedroom. It’s admittedly at the top of our allotted budget at $2800 per month, but the building amenities (pet spa, roof deck, and kid’s room!) make the price tag well worth it in our opinion.
