Property Description for 640 Bay Ridge Parkway
Welcome Home to this incredible opportunity in Bay Ridge!
As you enter the light-filled foyer, you will soon realize that this house is something special. Upon entering the living room through either set of French Doors, you will see a thoughtfully laid out home with high ceilings, a working Wood Burning Fireplace, split HVAC's, and elegant dark wood floors throughout. The light and airy Formal Dining room with lovely original Stained Glass and a Powder Room for your convenience, leads to the fully renovated and Windowed Kitchen. The kitchen features Stainless Steel Appliances, a Breakfast Bar, an oversized Wine Fridge, Abundant Counter Space and Storage, and a glass door that lets the sun in and leads out to a quiet oasis. Imagine having a deck that was made for grilling and entertaining! The lovely yard with a landscaped perimeter garden, lush grass, and custom shed lends itself to outdoor entertainment. Parking for 2/3 cars in the private drive that does not diminish the ample layout of the yard.
Inside, and one flight up, there are four flexible rooms to satisfy any scenario. Office? Check! Guestroom? Check! Closets? Check! Take the largest room for a primary or head one flight up to the fully renovated third floor that cries out to be a master suite (that makes FIVE separate living spaces!). This top level is an entire floor of Storage Galore, and a Completely Flexible Space that lends itself to multiple scenarios.
The basement has been renovated, has its own entrance, and has been outfitted with an economy kitchen. The kitchen area currently houses a new Washer and Dryer, but could be used in many different ways! Adjacent to the kitchen is a large area that could be used as an in-home gym, a recreation space of your choosing, a TV Room or an in-law/guest suite for long or short-term guests...the possibilities are endless.
All of the Big-Ticket items have been thoughtfully addressed by the sellers. Split HVAC System, Roof, Electrical, Plumbing, Windows, Facade and so much more. You do not want to miss this house! Showing by Open House or Appointment (By Exclusive Corcoran Agents). Easy access so reach out to us and let us show you what this lovely home has to offer!

Bay Ridge | Brooklyn
Lush front yards and trimmed hedges are pretty common in Bay Ridge.
Quick Profile
Bay Ridge is an old-world neighborhood neatly tucked into the southwest corner of Brooklyn within the shadows of the Verrazano Bridge. The neighborhood is encircled by the Belt Parkway along the shore line and the Gowanus Expressway inland.
Bay Ridge, long known for its generational pull, has historically been home to a diverse number of ethnic groups. While the area is flush with people of Irish, Italian and Greek descent, these ethnic communities have been joined by larger numbers of new groups, including people with Russian, Polish, Asian and Middle Eastern backgrounds. The Arab American community today in Bay Ridge represents the largest concentration of Arab Americans in New York City.
For many years, Bay Ridge and its waterside location, would attract the affluent. But most of the mansions that once lined Shore Road are long gone and have been replaced by six-story apartment buildings.
Aside from the low-rise apartment buildings, the neighborhood pretty much consists of one and two-family homes. Lush front yards and trimmed hedges are pretty common here.
Current zoning and limitations on building heights restrict any out of the norm development. At present, the future beholds small development on some of the commercial strips and teardowns of older homes for smaller residential projects.
