915 East 17th Street, 405

This apartment has so much going for it. It’s a corner unit with north and east facing morning-sun windows and tree-top views, a terrace for those craving outdoor space, and big rooms to spread out in. It’s going to need some work to bring out its full potential, but the reward will be a beautiful, spacious, two-bedroom home and terrace. The entryway has a big coat closet that leads into a foyer that can easily hold a large dining room table. The living room is huge and has room for a suite of furniture and an office area. The kitchen is windowed and, when redone, has space for a breakfast nook and lots of cabinetry. The primary bedroom is also huge with room for a king-size bed, dressers, nightstands and wardrobes, and it has a huge walk-in closet. Off the kitchen is another room that can be used as a study, den or second bedroom.

Terrace Gardens Plaza is a well-managed, financially solid, co-op located on a quiet cul de sac in north Midwood. The building is pet friendly (dogs under 20lbs), has new elevators and roofs, a bike room ($5/month) and garage ($115/month) and an updated laundry room. There is a doorperson 18 hours/day, an on-site super and management company. And best of all, the subway, a public library, shopping, banks and pharmacies are one block away on Avenue J. This coop requires a 25% down payment.
