that curved glass wall does most of the work here, pulling the terrace into the living room like an extension of the floor plan. a proper direct living setup with a bistro table already staged, though 297 square feet wants more than two chairs. north-facing city views into neighboring windows, which means evening drinks come with an audience.

not large and balcony like in its field but the terrace does come with water views and that's always a good thing even if they're oblique like they are here

Expert Opinion:
the integrated greenery from the adjacent courtyard creates a lush, buffered sanctuary, masking the urban grit. while the dimensions offer solid utility for a morning coffee or a quiet evening, the layout favors intimate solitude over hosting a crowd. it’s a private garden retreat, not a party deck.

Expert Opinion:
this home demonstrates a clever use of outdoor spaces, where some of the smaller terraces off the bedroom and bathroom are perfectly used to creating privacy. the main direct roof terrace is exceptional in its own right with great vegetation used for privacy screening an excellent outdoor kitchen and even a pool.

Expert Opinion:
this photo shows interior rooms, not the terrace itself, which tells you something about marketing priorities. ten feet of width on a direct living setup is solidly usable, enough for a proper table and a few guests who actually like each other. three hundred square feet with city views north and west, some neighbor sightlines to navigate. coffee for one works fine; dinner for six requires strategic seating arrangements and a tolerance for being observed.
