Property Description for 577 76th Street

Situated on one of Bay Ridge's fabled tree-lined blocks, this barrel front townhouse c. 1905 boasts the full array of original details, meticulously preserved, along with modern central AC/heating. As you approach the south-facing facade shaded by a stately 75-year-old sycamore tree, you'll see a bay of three windows, including stained-glass transoms. Pass through the gated wrought-iron fence and note the charming lamplight in the center of the front enclosure, the brownstone stoop, and wrought-iron double-doors protecting your entry vestibule. Open the inner solid mahogany door with beveled glass, flanked by panels of original stained-glass, step into the full foyer with built-in boot box at the foot of the original oak staircase. The parquet floor with inlay runs throughout the parlor floor. Light spills in through the front doors, and from the original stained-glass skylight above. Original pocket doors flank the generously proportioned parlor bathed in sunlight with ten-foot ceiling and original detailed woodwork. From there you pass through another set of pocket doors to the formal dining room with its coffered ceiling, built-in cabinets featuring original leaded-glass doors, intricately carved decorative moldings, and original lincrusta wall-covering between the wood panels of the wainscoting. Two tall windows drench this room in morning light. Pass through the galley kitchen and enter the mid-century extension with a tall window that floods the space with light and opens onto the spacious patio, with an exterior gas-line for your grill, and your own pear tree for shade in the garden. The second floor with four bedrooms and nine-foot ceilings has a bright and airy hallway with six original mahogany doors, including a pocket-door for the full bathroom-vintage 70's fixtures including a deep bathtub and soaring skylight.

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.
