The barrel-fronted townhouse at 644 76th Street in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, may not be a mansion, but with intact pre-war details, two-family potential, and a front and backyard, the $1,200,000 ask makes it a charming condo alternative. The 20-foot-wide, four-bedroom home boasts original inlaid hardwood floors, high coffered ceilings, bay windows, pocket doors, fretwork, moldings, and colorful stained glass.
The home’s parlor level is filled with historic architectural details, including an original stained-glass transom. The light-filled living room is framed by more stained glass, topping the room’s bay windows. The home’s new owners will no doubt be excited to see what’s beneath those dropped ceilings!
The high, coffered ceilings in the formal dining room, however, need no improvement. The room holds a wealth of details including built-in cabinets and more original woodwork. The kitchen features a breakfast bar for casual dining and a pass-through window to the dining room.
At the back of the kitchen, a door opens onto an expansive deck. Below is a verdant rear garden, with a lawn and plenty of room for planting.
The top floor holds four bedrooms with treetop views and a full bath, framed by a skylight. Each charming chamber has its own personality, with a country cottage vibe created by patterned wall coverings and warm wood flooring.
The home’s finished lower level opens onto the yard. Down here you’ll find a convenient laundry room, a half bath, and storage. This space would make a perfect recreation area or home gym, completing the picture of a compact family home in the city.
