In years past renting an apartment on Long Island or NYC commonly had prospective tenants focused on what they would receive inside their apartment. These days, residents are probably more concerned with what’s on the outside of their cozy domicile. Let’s take a look at some of the things you should expect from every luxury rental community here in the 21st Century..
Feel the Burn
Let’s start with the simplest of all amenities that every rental community should have (and you should not do without) namely…a first-class fitness center! The majority of top-notch rental facilities nowadays must include–or provide access to–a state of the art fitness center. If they don’t, run for the hills! Some rental communities even boast yoga studios, saunas, free weights and so much more! Bonus Tip: When searching for your next apartment, make sure this option is included within your monthly rent or you’re missing out on a valuable amenity.
Soap Opera
So, your apartment doesn’t come with a washer and dryer built into your unit? No biggie! Today the majority of apartment rental communities on Long Island have what we like to call, “Laundry Pavilions!” These on-site stand-alone structures frequently contain plenty of washers, dryers, folding tables and laundry carts-making laundry day more tolerable. The positive trade-off is, you sometimes gain more closet space in your apartment by not having a washer and dryer shoved-in what could be extra storage space for you and your family.
Game Night
Do you like to play games with your family and friends? Well you’re in luck! If you love poker with the guys or board games with the family and the amount of attendees to your game nights has outgrown the seating at your kitchen table…that’s no problem! Just head over to the community center or resident lounge in your community and let the games begin! The best community centers in luxury rental complexes usually offer tenants plenty of seating, game tables, TV’s, pool tables and more! In addition, these common areas often have rest-rooms, kitchen areas for cooling beverages and counter space for laying out snacks–making for an easy and convenient night out for you and your guests!
Up on the Roof!
Today it is well known that some of the best luxury rental communities located near or in big cities typically construct amenity spaces on their rooftops! Apartment complexes in Queens, Brooklyn and NYC often add sundecks with lounge areas, wet-bars, BBQ stations and even fire pits to their architecture increasing the amount of amenity space for every resident! So if you’re looking for a night-out of your apartment, a glass of wine at sunset with a loved one, or a get together with refreshments and good friends on a sunny afternoon, then skip the invitation to your couch and head up on the roof to entertain like a pro!
