It’s no secret that here at StreetEasy, we love Sunnyside. Offering attractive green spaces, easy accessibility to Manhattan, and a median asking rent nearly $1,000 below the citywide median, this Queens neighborhood has a little something for everyone. We’ve hand-picked five currently available Sunnyside apartments under $3,000 that will make you fall for this dynamic nabe. But if nothing below does it for you, there’s plenty more available listings — in Queens and beyond — on StreetEasy.
First up on our featured list of splendid Sunnyside rentals under $3000 per month is this centrally-located 2-bedroom. $2,495 per month gets you access to a contemporary open kitchen and convenient built-in dining island. Each of the bedrooms feature multiple windows and high ceilings, with plenty of room for big beds and matching furniture. Gorgeous hardwood set in multiple different types of patterns adorn the floors, accentuating the classic nature of this home.
Just a few blocks away lies this newly-renovated 2-bedroom paradise. This elegant pad boasts recessed lighting throughout, which shines a light on its plethora of storage. And did you notice the gorgeous designer fixtures in the kitchen and bathroom? Yes, it’s at the very tippy top of our budget at $2,995 per month. But the price tag is well worth it when you consider that extra-large, fully-private patio space.
We’re head-over-heels for this sweet little studio apartment. Taupe tiling in the bathroom provides a chic neutral color palette, while the minimalist-yet-modern kitchen gets the job done. A separate nook off the main room is the perfect spot for a separate work-from-home set-up. This home is located in The Sunny Hills Garden building, which is a majority resident-owned co-operative offering amenities like a gym and party room. And, at just $2,000 per month, this unit has the lowest price tag on this list. Sweet!
This is not a drill! Our next pick is a rent-stabilized (yes, really!) 1-bedroom listed at a remarkable $2,300 per month. It’s got a spacious galley kitchen with plenty of cabinets, plus a wide peek-a-boo window and attached breakfast bar. This set-up is perfect for entertaining — we can practically see the chip and dip spread out across the black granite surface! The decor and layout possibilities are literally endless in the sweeping 18’x12’ living room. And the home’s one bedroom is also extremely generous, easily fitting a king-size bed.
Last up on our list of splendid Sunnyside apartments is this 2-bedroom stunner on Skillman Ave. Listed for $2,700 per month, this home boasts refined touches like crown molding in the living room and a white marbled kitchen island. Breeze through the sophisticated French doors into the primary bedroom, which has storage space galore in the form of two closets and over-the-door shelving. The unit is located in a building that benefits from a brand-new courtyard.
