In Manhattan (or many parts of Brooklyn for that matter), a three-bedroom townhouse would cost you at least three times the asking price of this home. But in still relatively affordable Bay Ridge, $1,250,000 goes quite a long way. This attached brick beauty was recently renovated and has airy, restored interiors, a finished basement, and a beautiful backyard that has a deck, patio, and garden.
The south-facing home at 549 77th Street is between 6th Avenue and 5th Avenue, which is lined with local restaurants. It’s just two blocks from the R train station at 77th Street.
A small entry foyer with custom built-ins opens to the sunny living/dining room. This space features lovely pre-war details like an exposed brick wall, high ceilings, stained glass details, delicate moldings, and inlaid hardwood floors.
A small hallway, off which is a powder room, leads to the kitchen, which was renovated in 2019. It has custom cabinets, marble countertops, a pot filler, Bosch range plus a hood with exterior vent, microwave drawer, dishwasher, and a water filtration system.
Off the kitchen is a teak deck that’s perfect for all-weather outdoor entertaining thanks to a standing seam metal roof, step lighting, and hard-wired speakers.
The backyard begins with a paver patio area. Up a few steps is the lawn. The entire area is surrounded by climbing ivy and a cedar privacy fence and boasts planting beds rich with mature flowering plants and trees.
Up on the second floor, the primary bedroom suite faces the street and has a walk-in closet. It spans the width of the house and features a separate sitting/office area.
There are two more bedrooms and a full bathroom on this floor.
Finally, the finished basement has private street access and is currently used as a guest suite, play and study area, and den. This level also has a large laundry area, half bath, and the home’s mechanicals.
