a second level terrace with 259 square feet sounds generous until you notice the five foot width. that is bistro territory, not entertaining territory. the caution tape in the photo suggests someone agrees. views toward midtown are solid, privacy is real, but two chairs and a coffee is the ceiling here.

Expert Opinion:
the direct living and living level outdoor spaces might be small balconies, but the direct roof terrace is large enough to be super useful for outdoor living, the summer kitchen might be minimalist now but can be expanded

Expert Opinion:
a 15-foot width provides exceptional scale for this direct living terrace, allowing for full-scale outdoor living and dining. the setting is remarkably rare; being enveloped by a mature pine forest creates a sense of total seclusion and a unique, tranquil atmosphere seldom found in such a spacious property.

small private terrace tucked into the corner of the building. it has great privacy and quiet, at the expense of views.

Expert Opinion:
to narrow to have any practical use and the fact the windows are made opaque suggests the view is also not worthy, but that is a missed opportunity as that makes it perfect for planting to control your views
