Ditmas Park Rental Roundup: All Together Now
Living solo may have its perks, but it can get lonely after a while, too. This week, we’ve found some 3-bed-and-up properties in the area that just beg you to sit down for a family dinner.
4-bedroom near Brooklyn College
Available: June 1
Price: $2,450, plus broker’s fee
Details: No pictures yet, but it sounds like when you’re actually able to move in, you’ll be reaping the benefits of the extensive renovations currently taking place. At just over $600/bedroom with a backyard and on-site parking, this place seems like a bargain–but don’t count on letting the dog out in the garden, because no pets are allowed.

3-bedroom in a Detached Midwood House
Available: Immediately
Price: $2,700, plus broker’s fee
Details: We’re torn here. The kitchen looks like you can actually move around in it, and a fireplace (working or not) is nice, plus we really like the idea of a detached house… but the carpet, cabinets, and, beautiful pink swan bathroom might be just a smidge outdated. Will they agree to/help fund renovations if you ask?

3-bedroom Duplex on Ocean Parkway
Available: Immediately
Price: $3,500, plus broker’s fee
Details: “Duplex” isn’t a terrible word, and this one has an elevator, in-building laundry, and sleek modern features like granite countertops (small as they may be). Still, we’re wondering what makes this 1-bath, $1,000-plus/bedroom pad the “steal” the ad says it is, when that great O.P. 3-bed, 2-bath duplex we saw a few weeks back has been dropped to $3,200. If you find out, let us know.

5-bedroom Victorian House
Available: Immediately
Price: $7,500, plus broker’s fee
Details: This entire detached home at 315 Marlborough (between Beverley and Cortelyou) includes 3 bathrooms, a studio and playroom in the finished basement, a garage, and even cooking gas. But is it worth $2k more a month than the 6-bed, 4-bath house for rent we saw back in February, which has a similarly-wonderful location?
