The most remarkable feature of this well-laid-out one-bedroom in the former St. George Hotel in Brooklyn Heights is a terrace that’s bigger than the apartment. The unit, which appears to be in move-in condition, has potential to be a showstopper with a few style tweaks.

There’s plenty of room for books in the recessed niches of the open-plan living-dining-kitchen area, which overlooks the enormous terrace. Adding a partial divider could keep the kitchen out of view while preserving the apartment’s open feel.

The modern kitchen has dark wood cabinets, stone counters and a mosaic tile backsplash. Co-op rules allowing, the terrace could be landscaped and built out with a deck, pergola and areas for dining and lounging.
