Open, airy and bathed in gorgeous light throughout, this updated semi-detached single family home is located on a prime tree-lined Bay Ridge block and, notably, has PRIVATE PARKING! The first floor of this move-in ready home features an entry sunroom with a corner bank of windows, exposed brick and double custom closets; a spacious living area that opens up to a gloriously sunlit formal dining room as well as an eat-in kitchen with dual exposures and charming exposed brick, too. A convenient powder room is also found on this level.  The kitchen leads to a South and East facing rear yard as well as private detached garage and possibly parking for two cars easily accessed by a community drive. The bright upper level has 3 bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a wall of closets as well as its own private terrace and views of a canopy of treetops. There are two additional bedrooms on this floor -- both light and quiet -- as well as a windowed full bath with soaking tub. The fully renovated and windowed lower level of the home has direct walk-out access, high ceilings, and is finished to maximize the home's living space. With radiant heat, a split a/c unit and full bath, it can easily be used as an expansive recreation room – a wall-mounted TV and surround-sound speaker system have already been installed – or an accessory suite. This level also houses a laundry room, multiple storage areas, and the home's mechanicals.  Other improvements include: central A/C on the first and second floors; new roof (~5 years old); newly refinished exterior wall; updated electrical and plumbing; hard wired Internet; numerous windows (including 10 on the first floor alone); abundant closet space; among others. Ideally situated in central Bay Ridge amid a row of attractive pre-war brick row homes on a lovely street lined with stately London Plane trees. Nearby to the subway and express bus and minutes to vibrant greenspaces; waterfront parks and Shore Road promenade; and a wealth of local shops, markets – including a supermarket just down the block – and restaurants along 3rd Avenue.
