Multi-family - Queens, NY

60-08 Catalpa Avenue, Queens, NY 11385
60-08 Catalpa Ave is a 'Kreischer brick' Renaissance Revival town house, lovingly restored and maintained. It is a rare find, with a barrel front and rear bay windows. Located in the Central Ridgewood Historic District, this two-family, approx. 3500 sf building is a 6 min walk to the Forest Ave M station.

Barely a square inch has gone untouched, with historic details complemented by modern updates. The owner's unit on the first floor features pressed-tin 10 ft ceilings, original wood floors, custom cabinetry, a sleek custom open kitchen with stone countertops and stainless steel appliances, a lovely sun room overlooking a landscaped garden. The sun-drenched second floor unit has an additional bonus room above the entry way, also boasts high tin ceilings, and a large passthrough opening between kitchen and living room giving it ample natural light with an open floorplan feel. The windowed basement is full height and would make a great rec space, home office, or gym. The garden faces south and enjoys all day sun.

The Central Ridgewood Historic District was originally settled by upwardly mobile German immigrants around the turn of the century. The distinctive buff or amber bricks from Kreischer brick works were once also used to pave some streets of Ridgewood with 'yellow brick roads' giving the neighborhood streets with matching buildings a golden glow. The architects of Louis Berger & Co, himself a German immigrant and Pratt Institute graduate, designed some 5,000 buildings in the area giving the area its distinctive look. The area was also once known for breweries which employed many of the residents.

Neighborhood attractions include Norma's Corner Shoppe on the next block, Topos Bookstore, Forest Wines, Milk & Pull, Julia's Beer & Wine Bar, Cozy Corner Bar & Grill, Hetman Fine Foods, Grimaldi Bakery, Joseph Mafera Park, the Ridgewood YMCA, and Sweet Jane's. Nearby commercial corridors along Fresh Pond Road, Myrtle Ave, and Forest Ave. Easy access by car to the Jackie Robinson Parkway and Highland Park. 36 minute commute to downtown Manhattan (Broadway & Houston) via M train per google maps. The L train is just a 12 minute walk to Halsey where new breweries and businesses are echoing the past (Queens, Evil Twin, Nowadays).
