How to Choose a Luxury Apartment in Long Island | Greybarn Long Island Amityville

Now more than ever, it’s very important that your home is welcoming, comforting, and all around a great place to spend time. Everything from the amenities to the community has to shine through as not only being the bare minimum, but go above and beyond and truly make everyone feel special, as though it’s more than just a home, but their home.

Finding a place like this, however, is sometimes no easy task. There is a world of things to look for when choosing a luxury apartment that can stand out from the rest. Everything from locations, floor plans, real estate developers, and more can all create a lot of confusion when making a choice.

Luckily, we’ve narrowed down the list to the most important things to keep in mind when looking for a luxury apartment. While every apartment is different, these elements will always ring true as what makes a home feel like home, and not just another place to stay.

1: Location, Location, Location

First and foremost, make sure you’ve got your locations chosen before you dive deep into the search with the specifics. Choosing simple things such as the zip code, or the areas of town you want to live in based on commute times, distance to things like stores and gyms, and school systems can make choosing within those areas much simpler.

It’s easy to get distracted by things like price, parking, number of floors, or other small elements that are always going to be different, but can always be found once you settle on your location.

2: Great Amenities

Once you know your location, it’s time to start paying attention to the amenities on offer at the apartment complexes.

This is a situation where a little can definitely go a long way. You’ll notice if an apartment complex has no amenities, but small things like a park, a small gym, parking, and others will definitely go far in making a place feel like home.

When looking in this area, make sure you place your priorities on what you know you need, and will use, and not simply on things that are “nice to have”, but aren’t going to get used. You’ll end up much happier with the home that has a courtyard you’ll use everyday than one with a gym that you’ll never use.

3: Quality Living Space & Floor Plans

The living space itself is another area that can’t be overlooked.

Make sure you look for floor plans and living spaces that offer a lot of light, space, and room. Lots of places might advertise that they have all of these through photos, but seeing the spaces in person can always provide proof that a space truly feels open and inviting.

4: A Great Community

An often undervalued aspect of a new luxury apartment is a close look at the surrounding community, and what it offers for lifestyle, and connection to the rest of the world.

When it comes to Long Island, there are many great things to say about the friendliness, and involvement of the Amityville community in regards to not only projects and events, but also in how families come together and make the place feel like home.

In addition to great beachfront access for the summer, a great commute to Manhattan, and a bustling town center with plenty of activities for the whole family, it has an incredible suburban vibe that truly feels like home. Making a home here with your luxury apartment choice would be easy, and make for an excellent future.
