Welcome to 979 West Fingerboard Road, a refined take on townhouse living in the highly sought-after Stonegate community of Grasmere. Thoughtfully designed for both comfort and sophistication, the home begins with a rare no-steps entry and unfolds across three well-proportioned levels that balance openness with defined living spaces. Sunlight fills the interiors, accentuating rich hardwood floors and generously scaled rooms that feel elevated yet livable. A separate eat-in kitchen anchors the main level, flowing naturally into a dining area suited for both everyday living and seamless entertaining. What truly sets this home apart is its intelligent layout. Multiple living zones offer genuine flexibility, including a bright main living area and a substantial lower-level recreation space with direct access to a private backyard—ideal for a media room, home office, gym, or guest suite that actually functions. Upstairs, two well-sized bedrooms provide privacy and comfort, highlighted by a primary with ample closet space. Updated bathrooms feature clean, modern finishes that are both practical and polished. The outdoor space is a true extension of the home. The backyard is private, maintained, and fully usable—an advantage many comparable properties lack. Additional highlights include a two-car driveway, dedicated laundry, multiple storage areas, and a layout designed for real, multi-zone living. Equally important is the value behind the numbers. Low HOA fees cover meaningful expenses, including pool and tennis access, exterior maintenance (including the roof), and snow removal—reducing hidden ownership costs. Location is equally strategic: moments to the Verrazzano Bridge, quick access to the Staten Island Expressway, S53 bus to Brooklyn, railway connections, and close proximity to shopping, parks, and schools. This is where convenience, efficiency, and long-term value align.

R3-2
Low-Density Non-Contextual Residence District
R3-2 districts are general residence districts that allow a variety of housing types, including low-rise attached houses, small multifamily apartment houses, and detached and semi-detached one- and two-family residences. It is the lowest density zoning district in which multiple dwellings are permitted. Because of their flexibility, R3-2 districts are mapped widely in all boroughs except Manhattan.
