The kitchen is separate, but not completely disconnected from the main space with a wall cutout and breakfast bar.
The unit also boasts wood floors and period details like molding throughout and decorative fireplaces in both the living room and bedroom. The bedroom is in keeping with the unit’s spacious theme too, offering room for a king-size bed and ample closet space. Large windows ensure each space in the unit is drenched in sunlight.

Why it’s a deal: This Clinton Hill 1-bedroom offers a lot of bang for your buck. Priced $357 below the neighborhood median of $2,657 (see StreetEasy’s Q1 Market Reports for other price comparisons), it’s a great value considering the amount of space potential renters would be getting. Still, if you are a bit short on cash, the unit also accepts guarantors to help secure the rental.

Biggest drawback: While it is difficult to find something wrong with a rental offering so much value in a popular nabe, there are a few things left to be desired. Both the kitchen and bathroom are a bit dated with older finishes and fixtures. But for the price, can we really be that picky?
