Description
Swan House: Why choose between a Brooklyn artist's loft, a weekend waterfront home, and an easy commute to Manhattan when one remarkable property lets you have all three?
Welcome to Swan House, a restored, turn-key 1920s waterfront retreat on a fully enclosed 75100 property with approximately 75 feet of direct Jamaica Bay frontage and unobstructed Manhattan skyline views. Enjoy waterfront living while being approximately 45 minutes from Manhattan via the A train and just 8 minutes from the NYC Ferry at Rockaway.
Offering over 2,000 square feet of enclosed space, including 1,309 square feet of living area plus an huge, approximately 725-square-foot, heated above-grade studio/workshop, currently used as a pottery and photography studio, Swan House is ideal for artists, makers, entrepreneurs, or anyone seeking exceptional flex space.
Extensive restoration, including original hardwood floors, original doors, rare 1920s slip-shade light fixtures, a wood-burning fireplace, widow's walk, cedar-lined bedroom, and the original Prohibition-era hatch are complemented by a new custom kitchen, renovated zellige-tiled bath, updated plumbing and electrical, spray-foam insulation, new boiler and oil tank, and new shingle and flat roofs. The home is raised to FEMA standards, and the street has also benefited from neighborhood resiliency improvements.
Launch a kayak before work, or spend weekends boating, paddleboarding, fishing, crabbing, and swimming right from your yard. Enjoy sunsets over the Manhattan skyline while the protected Jamaica Bay bird habitat treats you to daily herons, egrets, ospreys, swans, and seasonal migratory birds singing from your three story yew trees. Additional features include a refaced bulkhead, swim stairs, four boat davits, a koi pond, raised vegetable gardens, pollinator gardens, and an outdoor hot-and-cold shower surrounded by honeysuckle and clematis.
Ready for its next stewards, Swan House is a forever home.
