It’s no secret that private outdoor space is one of the most wanted amenities in New York. It’s also relatively rare, especially if you want open space and not just a tiny balcony. But never fear! There are rentals out there with entire backyards all to themselves. Here are five NYC apartments with backyards available now. Enjoy the great outdoors.
