Description

Welcome to a beautifully renovated home in the heart of Bay Ridge, one of Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods. This classic yet modern house boasts hardwood floors, a custom fireplace, crown moldings, renovated bathrooms and kitchens, and ample outdoor space. With thoughtful upgrades like solar panels and split units, it offers both comfort and cost savings. Recent replacements include the roof in 2017, plus the boiler and water heater in 2019.

Currently zoned as a two-family home, a new owner has several great layout options: enjoy the entire property, create an upstairs-downstairs configuration for rental income, or convert the upstairs into three bedrooms for a spacious four-bedroom home. The home sits on a large 33 X 111 foot lot.

The layout is versatile, with east and west entrances. The first floor features wide doorways and large rooms, including a spacious living room, a study, and a kitchen with cherry cabinets, caesar stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances. A sunlit room with an en-suite bathroom and a conveniently located washer and dryer complete this level.`

Glass doors lead to a private wood deck with an automatic awning, providing a perfect outdoor retreat. The garden is a lush oasis, attracting birds and butterflies year-round with its vibrant flora.

The second floor offers an open-concept entertaining area, a spacious bedroom, kitchen, and a full bathroom. The bedroom offers open-sky views of Manhattan's Freedom Tower and custom-built closets. The basement is a versatile space, perfect for a family room, home theater, or home office. It also provides direct access to the garage and additional storage space.

This home is ideally located near dining, shops, parks, and public transportation, with abundant street parking available. Contact us today for a private tour of this meticulously maintained residence!
