Inside the Bay Ridge Mansion
Located on a street with beautiful Colonial Revival and Craftsman-style homes in the heart of Bay Ridge, this house still manages to stand out among the rest. The grand entryway boasts 24-foot ceilings, polished marble floors complementing the room’s gold details, and twin staircases leading upstairs. The room is anchored by a huge stained glass installation on the ceiling, which is both an incredible piece of art and a one-of-a-kind skylight.
From the entryway, you can access the elevator(!!!), the dining room to the left, and the great room to the right. Both rooms have fireplaces as well as ornate lighting fixtures, flooring, ceilings, and moldings. The designs and color schemes are unique from room to room, all embracing opulence and maximalism.
Connected to the dining room, the eat-in kitchen has a huge island and paneled appliances to match the embellished cabinetry. The fridge, styled identically to the rest of the cabinetry for a seamless look, is fit for a feast. Behind the entryway is a gallery leading to the landscaped backyard, with a massive patio for lounging to your heart’s content. The long driveway on the left side of the house leads to a one-car garage, which boasts an electric vehicle charger.
The home’s upper level is partially open to the grand foyer below. All five bedrooms on this level have access to a balcony or terrace, and all but one has its own bathroom. Each room is also decked out in intricate, opulent designs — no blank white boxes here.

Spas, Theaters, and Gyms, Oh My!
The home’s most unique rooms are on the basement level, where the star of the show is clearly the private spa with a hot tub, dry sauna, marble-lined steam room, and bucket shower. All of the spa’s spaces are decked out in gorgeous tile, and the hot tub room even has art built into the walls. Live here and never have to book a day at the spa again.
This floor is also home to a theater with leather recliners and a red-and-black color scheme. What’s more, a wine closet, office, home gym, and several closets and bathrooms round out this level. There’s even a ballroom for entertaining, anchored by a Sotheby’s-appraised Tiffany chandelier.
For a smooth operation, the house includes staff quarters and a laundry room. Outside the home’s many walls, you’ll find radiant-heated outdoor flooring and landscaped terraces and balconies. The back patio is large enough for plenty of furniture, and looks like the perfect place to entertain.
