8525 Colonial Road, Brooklyn, New York, 11209

A distinguished Colonial Revival residence with subtle Arts & Crafts character, this gracious corner home sits on a 52 x 78 property in the heart of Bay Ridge. Surrounded by light and open sky on three sides, it offers a rare sense of privacy, warmth, and scale. Beautifully maintained throughout the years, the home blends timeless architectural details with thoughtful updates and a layout designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living.

The main level features beautifully proportioned rooms filled with natural light, original moldings, preserved hardwood floors, and a charming wood-burning fireplace framed by an inglenook alcove, a signature Arts & Crafts detail. The sun-filled dining room offers windows on two exposures and a built-in window seat.

The kitchen is equipped with a Wolf six-burner gas range, built-in Wolf microwave and convection steam ovens, Miele dishwasher, Bosch refrigerator, Franke farmhouse sink, and a butler’s pantry with ample storage. Direct access to the backyard creates an effortless indoor-outdoor flow. A powder room and split-system heating and cooling complete this level.

Upstairs are four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a flexible room currently configured as a custom dressing room with its own private bathroom. The primary bathroom features double sinks, a frameless glass shower, and a jetted soaking tub. Central air conditioning services the second floor.

The finished lower level offers additional space ideal for recreation, media, or a home office, along with a full bathroom, Samsung washer and dryer, bamboo and tile flooring, and an extra-long cedar closet.

Outside, landscaped grounds, bluestone-paved entertaining areas, a private rear yard, and a detached two-car garage create an outdoor retreat rarely found in Brooklyn.
