Description

PRICE IMPROVEMENT FOR THIS OUTSTANDING HOUSE IN BAY RIDGE! Standing two glorious floors tall on a 40 X 100 lot, this beautiful detached home features four bedrooms, three baths, a finished basement with separate entrance, a long private driveway with two-car garage and GORGEOUS, lovingly tended gardens. The first floor has a spacious sun porch; a large, sunny living room; a formal dining room that has ample room for festive holiday dinners; a powder room and an eat-in country kitchen with an adjoining breakfast nook/home office/over-sized pantry/small bedroom. Upstairs are four well-sized, sun-strewn bedrooms and a full bath. The large master bedroom has a door that leads to a front roof terrace. The huge attic with drop-down ladder is well vented with lighting throughout and, as is, holds a tremendous amount of storage; with minor alterations, it could become a huge, fantastic loft. The basement is clean and well lit and has high ceilings, a tiled floor, another bath, a kitchenette -- perfect for parties or overnight guests -- and its own access to the backyard/driveway. There are many wonderful original details throughout, including a beautiful oak staircase, stained glass windows and parquet floors. Four exposures in this house allow light to shine through every window. Ideally located, the house is right below Ridge Boulevard, only one block to Third Avenue shops and restaurants and a short walk to Owls Head Park and the Bay Ridge Botanical Gardens on Shore Road. There is easy access to Manhattan with the nearby R train on Fourth Avenue, the express bus (X27/X37) along Shore Road and the new ferry service on 69th Street. Open House this Sunday July 16th from 3-4:30pm
