About This Property

A private garden oasis in South Slope/Greenwood, Residence 1B at Two Sixteen 20th offers approximately 993+/- SF of private outdoor space, including a beautifully landscaped backyard, covered and uncovered patios, and direct indoor-outdoor access from multiple rooms.

The centerpiece of the residence is its private backyard retreat, thoughtfully designed with lush planting beds, multiple seating areas, a dining space, and generous room to entertain, garden, or simply unwind outdoors. Complete with water and electric connections, the outdoor spaces extend the living experience well beyond the home's interior.

Inside, Residence 1B offers a unique multi-level layout centered around seamless indoor-outdoor living. Wide-plank 7.5" white oak flooring, oversized Brooklyn warehouse-style windows, and warm contemporary finishes create bright, inviting interiors throughout. The backyard and patios are directly accessible from the main living area, the primary bedroom, and the flexible lower level, creating an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances, an externally vented hood, wine fridge, quartz countertops, marble backsplash, and custom soft-close cabinetry. The marble bathroom is appointed with Kohler and Grohe fixtures, built-in vanity storage, and timeless finishes. Additional features include LG split HVAC systems, double-paned Low-E glass for enhanced quiet and energy efficiency, and a Bosch washer and dryer.

The expansive windowed lower level provides exceptional flexibility for recreation, media, fitness, creative pursuits, work-from-home needs, storage, or other lifestyle uses. Per the Offering Plan, this residence is offered as a legal one-bedroom with a lower level.

Two Sixteen 20th is a boutique condominium collection of just six individually designed residences with elevator access, located where South Slope meets Greenwood.

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Sothebys International Realty.

The private backyard is the first thing to plan around at 216 20th Street 1B, with roughly 993 square feet of outdoor space in total. It has landscaped planting beds, several seating areas and a dining space, and water and electric connections are already in place. Covered and uncovered patios sit alongside it, so you can eat or sit under cover or stay out in the open.

The backyard and both patios open directly off the main living area, the primary bedroom and the lower level. That's the detail I'd look at first. Being able to step out from the bedroom as well as the living room makes the garden feel like part of the apartment rather than an add-on.

Inside, the kitchen has Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances, an externally vented hood, a wine fridge, quartz counters, a marble backsplash and custom soft-close cabinetry. The vented hood and wine fridge matter most if you cook or host often, since they handle the work a dinner party creates without much fuss.

The lower level is windowed and flexible. The listing suggests it for recreation, media, fitness, creative work, work-from-home needs or storage. The Offering Plan treats the home as a one-bedroom with that lower level, so it's worth confirming with your attorney how that's documented. The 5-inch white oak floors and the marble bathroom with Kohler and Grohe fixtures carry the same tone through the rest of the home.

The building has an elevator and six residences in total. The Bosch washer and dryer are in the unit, and LG split HVAC systems handle heating and cooling. Prospect Avenue station on the R is about 6 minutes on foot, and Big Apple Fruits & Vegetables is about 3 minutes away. Siren and Sunrise Espresso are each about 2 minutes away, and Prospect Park is about 7 minutes on foot.
