Welcome to 972 Bay Ridge Avenue, a rarely available detached two-family brick home in the heart of Brooklyn. Proudly family-owned since 1970, this well-maintained residence is filled with stunning original details that speak to its historic charm. A gracious entrance leads into an enclosed sunroom with wraparound windows, setting the tone for the character found throughout the home. The first-floor apartment features soaring 11-foot ceilings and offers three spacious bedrooms, a separate dining room, a windowed bathroom, a dedicated laundry room, and a sunlit breakfast room with access to a gated, paved backyard adorned with a mature fig tree. Upstairs, the second-floor apartment mirrors the generous layout with three bedrooms, a separate dining area, a bright living room, and the rare luxury of both front and rear balconies. A magnificent stained glass skylight floods the interior with natural sunlight, adding elegance and warmth. Additional highlights include an updated roof and an unfinished basement with front and rear entrances, plus newly installed windows throughout. Ideally located just minutes from the vibrant 8th Avenue Chinatown, parks, and the public library, this home is a unique opportunity in one of Brooklyn’s most convenient and culturally rich neighborhoods.
