325 Marine Ave

A low-rise prewar cooperative built in 1926, this four-story walk-up occupies a tree-lined block in Bay Ridge. The 47-unit structure preserves original architectural touches—ornate lobby moldings, tiled floors and high ceilings—while common areas have been updated, including a renovated lobby, refreshed hallways and a modern intercom/security system. Apartments are predominantly one-bedroom layouts with eat-in kitchens, hardwood or parquet flooring, generous ceiling heights and original moldings; many units feature windowed kitchens and built-in storage. Exterior grounds include a landscaped front entrance, a rear courtyard and a small garden that provide pleasant outdoor space for residents. Building operations are characterized as well-managed with a live-in superintendent and a proactive board; maintenance levels are described as affordable. There is no elevator and the property enforces a cat-only pet policy. Transit access is strong for the neighborhood: nearby R train stations, express buses to Manhattan, and proximity to Shore Road Promenade, shops, restaurants and waterfront amenities shape daily life for residents.
