Property Description

*Showing by Appointment* First time to market since 1956! Early 1930s semi-detached two family brick with private driveway and three car garage in Ridgewood is ready to become your forever home. Measuring 20×54 in size on a 28×100 lot with a total of 3,240sf of space plus unused FAR 1,624sf presents a development opportunity to add a level and roof deck that would provide incredible Manhattan views (please consult your architect). Period details include beautiful original wooden entry doors with stained glass, a terrazzo tile compass star in entry foyer, hand painted hallway walls, interior wood doors with art deco hardware and glass knobs, inlaid hardwood floors, plaster walls, plus stunningly preserved decades old wall paper with prints you’ll adore. Enter the first floor apartment and you’ll be impressed with the size, flow and light with 5 box rooms, a formal dining room and living room and two garden facing bedrooms. At the center of the home, a spacious windowed eat-in kitchen with new refrigerator and stove has generous cabinetry and counter space. Need another bedroom? No problem. The formal living room can easily convert to an additional bedroom with excellent size, light and privacy. The second floor apartment is equally impressive with the addition of a third bedroom off the living room. Flex the formal living room into another bedroom and now you have 4-beds. The finished basement offers generous recreational space with a vintage bar setup complete with “Rheingold McSorely’s” tap handle harkens back to when Rheingold brewery (1883-1976) was a top NY brewery. Additional features include impressive 7’9” ceilings, a half bath, laundry, multiple storage rooms plus a cedar closet. Home has excellent mechanicals and recently upgraded gas heat and hot water heater. Nearby favorites include Grover Cleveland Park, Ester wine bar, the Knockdown Center for contemporary and performance arts along with a number of restaurants and shops all located off the Forest Ave M subway stop. 2241 Harman St is a rare “move-in ready” home with character and details galore.

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.
