Not all semis are created equal! At an impressive 20 feet wide, 355 Willowbrook Road offers the space and layout of a side-hall colonial, plus the added benefit of a completely legal, separately metered income-producing studio apartment. Built in 2000 and beautifully maintained, this 3-bedroom home welcomes you with a dramatic two-story entry foyer, bright oversized windows, recessed lighting and hardwood floors throughout. The open-concept main level seamlessly connects the living room, dining area and kitchen, creating a comfortable space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a pantry, center island and direct access to the backyard. A convenient half bath completes this level. Upstairs you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a full main bath and a spacious primary suite complete with its own 3/4 ensuite bath and THREE closets! The lower level adds even more versatility with additional space ideal for a home office, gym or recreation room, along with a full-sized garage. The legal studio apartment is separately metered and provides built-in rental income, with the potential to convert the layout into a 1-bedroom for even greater income potential. Outside, enjoy a double driveway PLUS garage and a low-maintenance backyard with pavers installed approximately 3 years ago. Major updates include a brand-new roof and 5-year-old hot water tanks. Centrally located with convenient access to I-278, HWY 440, the Verrazzano, Goethals and Bayonne Bridges, Forest Ave, Staten Island Mall, CSI, parks, walking trails, shopping, dining and major transportation corridors. Space, parking, flexibility AND rental income all wrapped into one exceptionally convenient address!
R3X contextual districts, mapped extensively in lower-density neighborhoods, such as Forest Hills in Queens and Prince's Bay and Westerleigh in Staten Island, permit only one- and two-family detached homes on lots that must be at least 35 feet wide. The 0.5 floor area ratio (FAR) in R3X districts may be increased by an attic allowance of up to 20 percent for the inclusion of space beneath a pitched roof. The perimeter wall may rise to 21 feet before sloping or being set back to a maximum building height of 35 feet. The amount of required open space on a lot is governed by yard requirements. Two side yards that total at least 10 feet are required and there must be a minimum distance of eight feet between houses on adjacent lots. The front yard of a new home must be at least 10 feet deep and, to promote a unified streetscape, it must be at least as deep as an adjacent front yard but need not exceed a depth of 20 feet. An in-house garage is permitted within the building provided the driveway is at least 18 feet deep. One off-street parking space is required for each dwelling unit.
