Summer's here...it's a great time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. Of course, you will be spending a lot of time at home these days, so the best place to be is on your own private balcony or terrace.
Don't have an outdoor space? Now is a good time to hit the market and upgrade your living situation.
Check out these five Manhattan homes for rent that offer coveted private outdoor space to soak up the sun.
