Property Description for 87 70th Street

Completely turn-key! A rare opportunity in Bay Ridge: a stunning gut-renovated 3Bed, 2.5Bath home on a super quiet tree-lined block. The home boasts a terraced front garden with a sprinkler system, a shaded oasis of a backyard with a deck and a private garage. A tasteful renovation kept some period touches, like plaster crown moldings and original doors, but roof/plumbing/electrical/oak inlayed floors/stairs/bathrooms/kitchen/exterior doors are brand new. Central air/heat, oversized hot water tanks and insulated attic keep you comfortable. Custom-designed closets and gorgeous built-in storage shelves abound. Fully wired for cameras/alarm. A light-filled eat-in kitchen has wide glass sliding doors to the back deck and a built-in corner bench to enjoy the birds singing on the Japanese maple in the backyard. A half bath, a living and a separate dining room are light-filled, elegant and spacious. Two out of the three generous bedrooms on the 2nd floor boast glorious tray ceilings, and the upstairs bathroom has both a shower and a soaking tub. A windowed basement currently has a big recreation room with a built-in wall unit to keep clutter at bay; a separate laundry room with a pantry, and a large storage room. The downstairs bathroom has an oversized shower cabin with a marble bench and a rain shower. The main floor has a bay window with a cushioned window seat that affords a beautiful view of the landscaping in the front yard. A true gem of privacy and comfort.

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 But most of the mansions that once lined Shore Road are long gone and have been replaced by six-story apartment buildings.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.
