Expert Opinion:
seventy-five square feet and under five feet wide, which puts this firmly in the "two chairs and a buddha" category. the mature plantings soften the tight footprint, and the penthouse elevation gives it genuine sky. a direct living connection means morning coffee happens here without thinking about it. intimate, not entertaining.

Expert Opinion:
although a touch narrow for a full dining table, the terrace is plenty big enough for any use, and together with the good views, and the mature vegetation, this is a lovely terrace.

Expert Opinion:
this living level terrace suffers from a serious identity crisis. while the access from the kitchen and bedroom is convenient, the 7-foot width is a deal-killer for functional dining. hampered by restricted views and cramped dimensions, the space remains more decorative than an actual extension of the home’s living area.

Expert Opinion:
reasonable sized terrace, fantastic for some relaxing, but fresh air and views are not on offer at this elevation amongst a cluster of some of the tallest residential buildings
