Asking $999,999, this detached single-family house in Marine Park feels like a true slice of American suburbia. It has a charming front yard and lots of curb appeal, a driveway that leads to a garage, and a rear patio and garden. Inside, there are four bedrooms, a sunroom, and a finished basement complete with a rec room and bar.
Enter through an enclosed foyer with a coat closet, which then opens into the large living room and adjacent sunny sitting room. Here, you’ll find lovely moldings and original parquet floors that were restored by the current owners.
The dining room and kitchen are at the back of the house, along with a powder room. The kitchen has been outfitted with a new floor, backsplash, modern appliances, and recessed lighting.
Off the kitchen is the sunroom, which has all new windows and even a skylight. Through here is the door to the backyard.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, all with ample closet space and new hardwood floors, and a full bathroom that features beautiful tilework.
The third floor/attic has been set up as a fourth bedroom. There’s quite a lot of storage on this floor.
The basement, though a bit dated, does function as a rec room, complete with a built-in bar, washer/dryer, and storage space.
The backyard has both a concrete patio and a grassy lawn. The garage is roughly 550 square feet.
The home is just a couple blocks from Marine Park itself, but the driveway will definitely come in handy for a car owner, as the closest subway is a bit of a hike.
