Description

Newly Listed! This beautiful 4 bedroom, 1.5 baths, single-family brick home has PARKING and is located on a pretty tree-lined Street in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn. It has been meticulously maintained by the same family for years over 50 years to be exact. The many wonderful original details throughout makes this home truly unique. The first floor features a South-facing sun porch, large living room with brick fireplace, formal dining room with wood-beamed coffered ceiling and an eat-in-kitchen with adjoining laundry and powder room.

Here you will find four bedrooms and a large bathroom with another skylight. High ceilings, picture moldings and lovely parquet floors with mahogany inlay complete this home. An English basement with plenty of windows has room for storage and laundry, and room to grow! There is parking on premise for two cars with the detached one-car garage and spot in front. Located near shops and restaurants along Fifth Avenue and 86th Street, it is also close to the R train station and express bus to Manhattan.
