Welcome to this charming, move-in condition, multi-level home with stunning curb appeal. Enjoy sitting in your front patio surrounded with a relaxing colorful garden. As you enter the ground level of this magnificent 3 level home, you will be enchanted with the open flowing layout. A fireplace mantel and built-in wall unit nicely accent the Great Room along with 3 large windows facing an array of trees creating a sense of privacy. Sweeping past the living/dining room combo, you will encounter your dream kitchen. Surrounded by abundant cabinets, dine at the freestanding island that also serves to store your kitchen essentials, or sit at the dining table while enjoying the scenic view of the beautifully landscaped backyard. Perfect for entertaining with a BBQ or just relaxing, this home includes your own sanctuary with a fenced in private backyard, surrounded with white gravel and beautiful flowers. This level is completed with a spacious and beautifully decorated bathroom, finished with a whirlpool tub.

The second level of this duplex offers a bright and sunny Master bedroom, generous in size that can easily accommodate large furniture, including a king-size bed. There is a room attached to the Master, currently equipped with wall-to-wall closets, which can serve for multiple purposes, a walk-in closet, a nursery or potentially, a home office. Full white-tiled bathroom sits across from the hall closet, which is currently being used as a laundry center. The Second bedroom, equipped with a fireplace mantel, built-in closets and accented with 3 large windows, is enormous and easily accommodates a comfortable sitting area with views of the array of trees seen across from the home.

Prewar details compliment the front entry foyer as the newly refinished hardwood staircase leads you to the bright and sunny top floor level where you will find a galley kitchen equipped with a spacious pantry, large hall closet and white tiled bathroom. This level is bright and airy featuring multiple bedrooms, traditional pocket doors and beautifully refinished hardwood flooring. There is abundant closet/storage space throughout this floor.
Finishing off these spacious living quarters is a tastefully designed and decorated basement that could easily accommodate a home office, gym or serve as a family room.

This home, the quintessence of contemporary city luxury, is situated in close vicinity to fabulous restaurants, major supermarkets, shopping and all the amenities this vibrant Bay Ridge community has to offer.
