Bay Ridge Jewel Box- Amazing Opportunity-Sweeping Bridge Views The red doors of the Fairfax House provide an iconic visual in Bay Ridge. Upon entering this pristine, six-story prewar co-op building, you will want to call this place home. A corner residence on one of the uppermost floors, life in Residence #5G places you above the treetops and "on top of the world," with unobstructed views of the Verrazzano Bridge and the New York City Skyline. In a world of tiny, shoe-box apartments, the elegant simplicity and spacious comfort of prewar spaces shines with life-enhancing details like high ceilings, original parquet flooring, extra-large rooms, and abundant closet space. Enter the residence in a grand foyer designed to serve almost any function, from a formal dining area to an extended living area, a home office to a sitting room, or a gallery to much more. The roomy cook's kitchen offers ample wood cabinets, granite counter-tops, stainless-steel appliances (including a microwave), and tile flooring. Adjacent to the kitchen, enjoy home-cooked meals in the cozy dining nook. While life in NYC may be busy, find your peace and tranquility in the king-sized bedroom, which has two vast closets. As a corner unit, the double-exposure (southern and western) of this serene room provides warm, rich sunlight, and awe-inspiring, panoramic views. The beautifully updated, full bathroom carries through feelings of relaxation and calm with a clean, streamlined feeling and a bathtub/shower. The well-established building is impeccably kept by the attentive, live-in Super. In the basement, find laundry facilities, bicycle racks, and rented storage-units. The neighborly feeling of the building means that, living in this apartment, you will have the feeling of living in a small town within the amazing landscape of opportunity in a big city.
