1615 Ave I, 320

Outdoor space is hard to come by in Brooklyn, and this one is yours alone. Apartment 320 is a sunny two-bedroom, one-bath co-op in Terrace Gardens Plaza, a well-kept pre-war elevator building on a quiet, tree-lined block in North Midwood. Your own terrace sits just off the living room. The five-room layout opens with a sunken living room that has a real sense of scale. Step out to the private terrace, which looks over East 17th Street and the building’s landscaped courtyard. It’s a great spot for morning coffee, a few potted plants, or dinner outside on a warm night. There’s also a separate dining room with enough space for a full table, which is a rare find at this price point. Primary bedroom fits a king-size bed with room to spare, and the second bedroom can fit a Queen and works well for guests, a growing family, or a proper home office. Hardwood floors and good closet space run throughout.
