Can’t afford the Gingerbread House? Other big Bay Ridge homes are available
Eye On Real Estate
If the famed Gingerbread House is a bit out of reach but you’re longing for a large house and suburban tranquility in B’KLYN, there are other big homes for sale in Bay Ridge with smaller price tags.
Eye on Real Estate got a good look last week at the iconic Arts and Crafts-style mansion at 8220 Narrows Ave., which Corcoran’s Vicki Negron and Carrie Chiang are marketing for $10.5 million. See those stories if you want to give the landmarked 1917-vintage stone mansion the once-over once again.
On the blocks near the fab fairy-tale house, several properties with charm and personality are being marketed by neighborhood brokerage firms.
“We get buyers who see Brooklyn Heights or Park Slope and then come to Bay Ridge,” said Robert Maguire, a broker at John Maguire Real Estate. “You get more bang for your buck – and you get a garage.”
