Rare Prince’s Bay Single-Family Estate with Assumable 2.5% interest rate Mortgage Set on an extraordinary 21,069-square-foot L-shaped lot in the highly coveted Pleasant Plains neighborhood, bordering Prince’s Bay on Staten Island’s South Shore, 6170 Amboy Road offers a rare combination of land, privacy, flexibility and future potential. Tastefully renovated, warm and inviting as-is, this beautifully maintained approximately 1,500-square-foot single-family home is complemented by a detached two-car garage, a separate barn with loft space, a wraparound screened porch, and abundant parking. And seeing is believingthe home feels considerably larger once inside, with an expansive living and dining area, a private enclosed office, and a bright, open eat-in kitchen that together create an inviting and surprisingly spacious interior. Adding significant financial appeal is an assumable mortgage at an attractive 2.5% interest rate, with approximately 25 years remaining. Qualified buyers may assume the existing loan, subject to lender approval and applicable owner-occupancy requirements. Inside, timeless craftsmanship is paired with thoughtful modern improvements. Hardwood floors extend throughout the home, while the generous living and dining spaces provide comfortable areas for both everyday living and entertaining. The custom cherry-wood kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and a bright, open eat-in layout, while the private first-floor office/homework space and convenient 3/4 bath add versatility and functionality. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms are enhanced by premium Cavity Slider pocket-door systems. The primary bedroom features a walk-in closet, while the shared double-entry bathroom is finished with porcelain tile and radiant-heated floors for year-round comfort. A finished attic adds another layer of flexibility and can serve as a guest suite, media room, playroom, home office, or potentially an additional bedroom, subject to applicable approvals. Both staircases have been recently renovated. Laundry hookups are conveniently located on the second floor as well as in the unfinished basement. The basement provides additional storage and utility space, with an approximate six-foot ceiling height. Thoughtful upgrades throughout the home enhance efficiency, comfort, and connectivity, including foam insulation, recessed lighting, integrated network wiring in every room for home technology and audio, five mini-split systems, new low-profile baseboard heating, and a tankless water heater. Outside, the property becomes even more distinctive. A detached two-car garage is complemented by a rare detached barn with loft space, offering exceptional versatility for a workshop, artist’s studio, fitness space, hobby area, storage, or other creative uses. A wraparound screened porch overlooks the expansive, park-like grounds, creating a peaceful setting for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the privacy and natural beauty of the property. Perhaps most compelling is the potential offered by the expansive rear portion of the lot. The seller has completed a feasibility study and architectural plans for an approximately 4,000-square-foot additional residence, providing a valuable head start for a buyer envisioning a larger estate, luxury guest house, private retreat, multigenerational compound, or future investment opportunity. Any future development is subject to applicable zoning, approvals, and permits. Despite its private, estate-like setting, the property is conveniently located just minutes from the Staten Island Railway, express buses to Manhattan, shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities, including Trader Joe’s. Properties offering this combination of substantial land, an existing single-family residence, abundant parking, distinctive detached structures, future development potential, and an assumable 2.5% mortgage are exceptionally rare. 6170 Amboy Road presents a truly unique opportunity to enjoy the property
Pleasant Plains, located between the West Shore Expressway and the Arthur Kill shoreline, is a low-rise and residential Staten Island neighborhood with a marsh-edge landscape and wide, quiet blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Pleasant Plains station area at Pleasant Plains Avenue and Seguine Avenue, where small storefronts, takeout counters, and commuter foot traffic set the daily rhythm. Historic Richmond Town anchors nearby with living-history buildings and seasonal programming that shape local culture. The Conference House Park waterfront adds salt-air paths and broad lawns beside the harbor. Housing leans toward detached homes with driveways and tidy yards, giving the streets a suburban cadence within the city. Wetlands and creeks frame the edges, keeping the geography present in everyday views.

R3X
SRD
Low-Density Contextual Residence District
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.
