Rare opportunity in Ditmas Park - a large, recently renovated 1BR with a flexible bonus room and an extraordinary oversized private terrace. This spacious and thoughtfully updated home offers a wonderful combination of comfortable indoor living, flexible space, and exceptional private outdoor living. Natural, modern-toned hardwood floors run throughout the apartment, creating a warm and cohesive feel. The well-proportioned layout includes a comfortable living room, dedicated dining area, king-sized primary bedroom, and a separate bonus room-ideal for a home office, nursery, guest room, or other flexible use. The windowed kitchen has been beautifully updated with stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher, and a clean, modern aesthetic. The newly renovated, windowed bathroom is a true highlight of the home. Finished in a sophisticated neutral palette, everything is new following a full gut renovation, including the tile, bathtub, sink, toilet, and faucet. Thoughtfully designed built-in cabinetry provides excellent storage, while the mirrored medicine cabinet offers additional concealed storage. A high-end TOTO automatic toilet completes this beautifully finished modern space. The true showstopper is the extraordinary approximately 440-square-foot private L-shaped terrace-an exceptionally rare amount of private outdoor space for the neighborhood. Nearly half the size of many full apartments in the building, this expansive outdoor retreat offers room for multiple distinct living areas, including outdoor dining, entertaining, container gardening, play, and lounging. More than simply a balcony, it functions as a genuine extension of the home's living and entertaining space and sets this residence apart from other units in the building. The kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom overlook the terrace and enjoy western exposure. Additional features include four closets, recessed lighting, and through-wall air-conditioning. 1818 Newkirk Avenue is a well-maintained elevator co-op offering a part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, building staff, updated laundry room, bicycle storage, landscaped shared outdoor space, and on-site parking subject to availability/waitlist. Ideally situated near Newkirk Plaza, the building offers convenient access to the Q train and weekday B service, providing easy access to Manhattan. Ditmas Park's cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, shopping, and charming tree-lined streets are nearby, with Cortelyou Road, its year-round farmers market, and Prospect Park also within easy reach. Pets are not permitted, except as required by applicable law. An additional benefit: the seller has paid the apartment's current assessment in full, allowing the next owner to enjoy the home without assuming that existing assessment obligation. A rare combination of a large and flexible interior, recent renovations, a standout new bathroom, and truly exceptional private outdoor space in the heart of Ditmas Park.
