Bay Ridge Houses
Single and two family homes, and what they are worth
Bay Ridge is one of the last neighborhoods in Brooklyn where you can own a detached house with a driveway, a garage, and a yard, fifteen minutes from the Verrazzano and thirty from Lower Manhattan. The houses west of Third Avenue, along Colonial Road, Narrows Avenue, and Shore Road, are some of the most sought after single family homes in the borough. Daniel Soldano has been selling them since 2011, from starter houses to a $4,150,000 single family on 82nd Street, the largest sale of his career. Sales before Soldano Realty was founded were completed at a prior brokerage. This page is the record: what the houses are, what they trade for, and what yours is worth.

What we know about selling a house here
We have been selling houses in Bay Ridge and the neighborhoods around it since 2011: detached and semi detached homes, limestones and brick rows, two and three families, and mixed use buildings. Tens of millions of dollars of them, including some of the largest single family sales of our careers. Here is what that experience actually buys you.
We price from the block, not from a formula. Two houses on the same street can sit hundreds of thousands of dollars apart on lot width, a legal curb cut, whether the basement is finished legally, or whether an extension was ever permitted. Your comp set is the block, the house type, the lot, and the condition, and we show you every closing we used to get to the number.
We find the problems before the buyer’s inspector does. Buried oil tanks. A roof at the end of its life. A certificate of occupancy that does not match how the house is actually lived in, which on a two family can end a deal in week three of contract. Open permits and violations that surface in title when it is too late to negotiate. We raise all of it on the first walkthrough, while there is still time to fix it or price it.
We know what a tenant does to your sale. Delivered vacant, occupied, or partly occupied changes your buyer pool, their financing, and your price. Leases, estoppels, and what a buyer can actually do with the unit after closing are questions we have answered on real deals, not in theory.
We have handled the complicated ones. Estate sales with several heirs and a timeline nobody controls. Houses that have not traded in forty years and were never photographed well. Sales where the family is deciding what to do at the same time as they are grieving.
We know what preparation returns more than it costs. Houses are bought on emotion in a way apartments are not. We walk the house with you before anything is listed and tell you which repairs and staging earn their money back and which do not.
Whichever kind of house you own, we have priced it, marketed it, and closed it before. Nothing about your sale will be our first time.

Types
The houses of Bay Ridge
Bay Ridge houses fall into a few distinct types, and they trade very differently.
Detached single family. The top of the market. Freestanding homes on Colonial Road, Narrows Avenue, Shore Road, and the side streets between them, many with driveways, garages, and real yards. Brick center hall colonials, Tudors, and a handful of Victorians. These are the $1.5M to $3M+ sales, and the best of them rarely reach the portals before they trade.
Semi detached. One shared wall, usually a private driveway or shared drive with a garage in back. Found throughout the 70s, 80s, and 90s between Ridge Boulevard and Fifth Avenue. The workhorse of the Bay Ridge house market.
Attached rowhouses and limestones. Brick and limestone rows on streets like Senator Street, many with original detail: parquet floors, pocket doors, stained glass. Strong value per square foot and the entry point to house ownership in the neighborhood.
Two family homes. Everywhere in Bay Ridge, and often the smartest purchase here: live in one unit, let the rental income carry a meaningful part of the mortgage. Two families are also the most common house we are asked to value, because owners hold them for decades.

Questions
Bay Ridge houses, answered
What is the average price of a house in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn?
As of July 2026, the median house sale price in Bay Ridge is about $1,439,250 for a single family and $1,575,000 for a two to four family, based on closed sales tracked in the Soldano Report. Detached single family homes west of Third Avenue sit at the top of that range and often trade above $2 million, while attached and semi detached homes and smaller two family houses trade below it.
Is Bay Ridge a good place to buy a house?
Bay Ridge offers detached and semi detached houses with driveways, garages, and yards at prices well below brownstone Brooklyn, with the R train, express buses, and the NYC Ferry to Manhattan. It is one of the few Brooklyn neighborhoods where single family houses with parking remain the dominant housing type west of Third Avenue.
What kinds of houses are in Bay Ridge?
Bay Ridge has four main house types: detached single family homes, mostly between Colonial Road and Shore Road; semi detached homes throughout the side streets; attached brick and limestone rowhouses; and two family homes, which are common across the entire neighborhood.
Do Bay Ridge houses sell before they hit StreetEasy or Zillow?
Some do. The most sought after detached houses, particularly on Colonial Road, Narrows Avenue, and Shore Road, sometimes trade through local brokers before reaching the portals. Leave your details and Soldano Realty will contact you when a house matching your search becomes available, including off market opportunities.
What does Soldano Realty do to prepare a house for sale?
We walk the house with you before anything is listed and identify what actually returns more than it costs, then we deal with the items that end deals later: a certificate of occupancy that does not match how the house is used, a buried oil tank, open permits, a roof near the end of its life. Professional photography and a measured floor plan are done before the listing goes anywhere. On tenant occupied houses we sort out leases and what a buyer can do with the unit before a buyer’s attorney asks.
How do I find out what my Bay Ridge house is worth?
Tell us the address and house type and Soldano Realty will prepare a value range built from the closed sales that actually compare: same block, same type, same condition tier, with the sales behind it. There is no charge and no obligation. What’s my house worth?
When is the best time to sell a house in Bay Ridge?
The spring window, roughly March through June, draws the deepest buyer pool, with a second window in September and October. Well priced houses sell in any month, but launches timed to these windows historically draw more competing offers in Bay Ridge.
