The terrace can become an additional place for breakfast, rest, plants or a child's play. In a compact apartment, it really expands the space, but it is worth assessing its shape, light and privacy.
Check the arrangement, not just the floor area
A narrow, long terrace may look impressive in the table, but it cannot accommodate a table and free passage. During the presentation, mark the dimensions of the chairs, flower pots or deckchair. Also check the exit from the living room: an open door should not take away the space needed for furniture inside.
In Harmonia, apartments with terraces of various sizes and locations were available, so each offer must be assessed separately and its current status in the price list must be confirmed.
Assess the sun, wind and privacy
A southern or western exposure gives more sun, but may require shading in summer. A terrace on a higher floor may be more private and at the same time feel the wind more strongly. Check the view of the neighbors, the distance from the passages and the possibility of using light covers in accordance with the community rules.
The low-rise buildings of Harmonia favor a more intimate perception of the space than the surroundings of high-rise blocks of flats. The terrace is not lost between many floors, and a tidy patio and enclosed area create a quieter background for everyday relaxation.
Think about the actual use
If you like your morning coffee outside, plants or working in the fresh air, the terrace may be one of the most important elements of the apartment. If you spend most of your day away from home, evaluate whether the additional cost is justified for you. The terrace also requires cleaning, monitoring the drains and securing the furniture.
Do not assume the possibility of any construction or placement of very heavy flower pots. Such changes may require load, structural and approval reviews. The safest way is to plan light, mobile equipment.
Combine private space with the convenience of the city center
The most interesting benefit is that you don't have to choose between your own space outside and proximity to the city. From Harmonia you can reach shops, services, clinics, schools and offices, and when you return you can relax on your own terrace.
The development also offers a closed and monitored area and a shared patio. This is a well-thought-out set: private space next to the apartment, comfortable surroundings for residents and low-rise buildings that maintain an intimate character. If the terrace is important to you, it is worth seeing it at the time of day when you will use it most often. Sit down for a few minutes, listen to the sounds coming from you and assess whether the planned furniture set will fit. Such a simple experience says more than the area given in the advertisement.
