From the listing

This exceptionally spacious one-bedroom flex home offers rare scale and separation, with three exposures, generously proportioned rooms, a formal dining room, and a dedicated corner office, along with abundant natural light throughout; creating a layout more akin to a classic prewar residence than a typical apartment. A dramatic sunken living room anchors the home, adding architectural character and a remarkable sense of volume. The separate formal dining room is ideal for entertaining or hosting, while the corner office provides a true dedicated workspace with excellent natural light. The oversized bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed with additional furnishings, and large windows fill the home with natural light throughout. Storage is exceptional, with six closets thoughtfully distributed throughout the residence; an uncommon luxury in New York City living. Terrace Gardens offers a uniquely tranquil residential setting surrounded by meticulously maintained landscaping, mature trees, and lush garden grounds. Residents enjoy the benefits of a full-service building with a full-time doorman, as well as building security, live-in superintendent, package room, on-site laundry, dedicated porters & bike storage. No pets please. Surrounded by charming tree-lined streets, neighborhood cafes, local restaurants, and everyday conveniences, this location offers the perfect balance of residential tranquility and urban accessibility. The nearby B and Q trains provide quick and convenient access to Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn. A rare opportunity to enjoy grand proportions, timeless architectural details, and full-service living in one of Brooklyn's most established residential communities.
