The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area serves as the heart of the home, creating an inviting space for entertaining, working from home, or simply enjoying the natural light that fills the residence throughout the day. Oversized Pella windows combined with overhead skylights create a unique layering of light that enhances the home's bright and airy atmosphere.
The kitchen is thoughtfully crafted with custom European solid hardwood cabinetry, Calacatta Miraggio Cove stone countertops and backsplash, and a fully integrated suite of premium paneled appliances including a Blomberg refrigerator, Bertazzoni range with externally vented hood, and Bosch dishwasher. Vented cooking and carefully designed storage provide both functionality and clean architectural continuity.
Privately positioned away from the main living area, the bedroom offers a peaceful retreat enhanced by its own skylight and southern exposure. The result is a space that feels bright, tranquil, and connected to the sky above while maintaining complete privacy.
Throughout the residence, wide-plank California white oak engineered flooring introduces warmth and texture, while the Porcelanosa bathroom features a floating vanity, floating toilet, and sleek glass-enclosed shower. Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat central air conditioning, enhanced sound insulation, ButterflyMX smart access control, and fully vented in-unit laundry provide the comfort and convenience expected of modern luxury living.

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.
