The 25 Best Houses in Brooklyn: A Highly Subjective List
163 81st Street, Bay Ridge
Unlike many of the homes on this list, this house isn’t well-known, and as far as we know hasn’t achieved cult status among the borough’s flaneurs. It’s just one we’ve discovered on our own wanderings that’s particularly beautiful: the unfenced lawn, the dollhouse cuteness, the wraparound porch (ain’t enough of those left in Brooklyn!), the elegant exterior care and the rounded turret all combine to make for a distinctive home.
