475 82ND Street #NA

Lovingly enjoyed by the same family for nearly 100 years, 475 82nd Street, built circa 1905, has not been offered on the open market since 1920. This historical, semi-detached single-family residence, although in need of a thorough renovation, offers well preserved original detailing found in only some of the finest Brooklyn brownstones--ornately detailed parquet flooring, crown moldings, high ceilings, glass knobbed doors, and original solid wood staircase. The parlor level is a generous almost 800 square foot floor plan that includes a sunroom entry, sprawling living and dining areas with gas burning fireplace, and separate den and kitchen that are well positioned to create the garden eat-in kitchen of your dreams. Below, the full semi-finished English basement with high ceiling provides exceptional potential to design a massive recreation room or guest quarters. The second floor has a perfect layout that includes a king-sized master, two additional, well-apportioned bedrooms, and sizable full bathroom. Once renovated, owners will enjoy generous triplex living with almost 2,400 square feet of finished living space. Built on a south facing, oversized 27 x 100 lot, owners will be spoiled with a rarely available two car garage and private driveway that can accommodate four additional cars without compromising back yard space. This Bay Ridge location is second to none, just steps from the dining and shopping pleasures of both 86th Street and 5th Avenue, only a few short blocks to the subway.
