32-37 47th St #2

Three-bedroom in Astoria, $3,400/month ($1,133 per person)

Like cabinets? This Queens apartment has got them for days. You won’t have to sacrifice an inch of counter space to boring old cereal boxes and soup cans in this large, sunny kitchen. On the other hand, you’ll probably want to stop by the hardware store on your way back from Trader Joe’s. The current wall color looks like someone ate 20 bags of wintergreen lifesavers then threw up on a paint roller. But even though the previous tenants may have been the Doublemint Twins, the space has got some great bones.

No one wants to end up in the world’s most depressing apartment (and equally, not everyone has the cash to get the kind of place Obama could afford to rent if he moves to New York), so take a look at these attractive, spacious places—but do it quickly, because these will be gone before you know it. Come back next week for more of our top picks from real estate site Zumper’s inventory.
