Property Description for 18-70 Willoughby Ave

Perfectly adorable, solid brick townhome with a private garage and all original 1935 architectural details is ready for your love. This 3-bedroom Tudor is full of charm and evokes a bygone era when style was built in and homes were made to last. Wonderfully situated on a pretty tree-lined street in Ridgewood at the edge of East Williamsburg and Bushwick, and a short walk to the Jefferson Street L train station. The original details are in amazingly good shape and include solid plaster walls and moldings, wall sconces, decorative fireplace, solid wood-paneled interior and exterior doors with original hardware, stained glass window and skylight and original hardwood parquet flooring throughout. The sweet original kitchen cabinetry and hardware is fully intact and just needs a little restoration. There are plenty of closets throughout — 2 in the spacious master bedroom — and 1870 Willoughby Ave offers the rare urban luxury of a designated coat closet in the front entryway. The semi-finished basement can easily be upgraded for extra living space or a mother-daughter apartment with a private rear entrance. Uncover the secrets of this part of Ridgewood where you'll find a plethora of new restaurants, bars, galleries and shopping nearby such as Buttah Bakery, the Michelin-starred Faro, Artichoke Basille's Pizza, Fred Frelinghuysen Presents, The Keep, Heavy Woods, Teo and much, much more. Enjoy nearby Grover Cleveland Playground and beautiful Maria Hernandez Park where you can shop the Farmers Market and take advantage of all this treasured city park has to offer. You CAN afford to buy a quality townhome at a Queens price with a Brooklyn lifestyle!

Ridgewood | Queens

Quick Profile

Unique for being a symbolic and literal bridge between Brooklyn and Queens, Ridgewood incorporates both distinct elements of these boroughs into its persona. Originally considered part of Brooklyn, the neighborhood broke off with Bushwick in the 1700s at a point called, appropriately, Arbitration Rock. When the blackout of 1977 occurred, the residents of Ridgewood only further wanted to dissociate themselves from their Bushwick neighbors as the bedlam that ensued in between the looting and the riots made them feel just a tad superior. 

And yet, just because its zip code changed didn’t mean Ridgewood could ever fully break free from its proximity and entwined identity with Bushwick. Pegged as the next “it” destination and hipster haven to move to circa 2016, Ridgewood has surprised many with its steady pace of growth, therefore well-maintained “neighborhood” feel. 

Rife with quiet blocks filled with quaint, colorful buildings, Ridgewood offers the bodegas and local businesses one also expects of “old world” Brooklyn. An increase in the number of coffee shops, bars and DIY venues have continued its natural association with Bushwick, however, the deeper into the neighborhood you go, the more apparent it becomes that Ridgewood is very much its own very Queensian thing.
