Property Description for 1138 Ocean Ave, 8-H
Welcome to residence 8H, a stunning, turn-key penthouse with three sun-drenched, private terraces, landmarked views, and the potential for a third bedroom. The seamlessness between living, dining, and the outdoors creates a delightful energy and treetops are visible from every room. The generous living area opens to both the kitchen and the separate dining area and is complete with its own, adjacent terrace. The separate dining room—or potential third bedroom—comfortably allows for a six-person table and opens to the largest of the three terraces. A modern chef’s kitchen is conveniently separate yet open and offers quality stainless steel appliances including gas range, dishwasher, over-sized refrigerator, and built-in microwave, wraparound granite counter tops, and custom shaker cabinetry. The primary suite boasts an en-suite, luxury bathroom and a third, private terrace, and comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed plus additional funishings. The second bedroom is complete with its own terrace access and sizable closet and the second, full, luxury bathroom is adjacent yet accessible from the common area.
The property also features a vented, in-unit washer/dryer, two additional storage closets, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, an abundance of windows, and beautiful espresso-colored oak strip hardwood flooring throughout. All terraces and rooms look out upon the quintessential Ditmas Park Victorians and plentiful greenery, the terraces provide Manhattan views which include the Empire State Building and the Freedom Tower, and the entire place is blanketed in warm natural light. Absolutely pristine, turn-key and ready to be your next home.
This premiere condominium, The Waterfalls on Ocean, was built in 2011 and is a full-service, pet-friendly building, offering a 21 year tax abatement, a bright and airy fitness center, part-time doorman (8am-8pm), resident Superintendent, and an expansive outdoor common space with a children’s playground, lawn, and seating areas, and a zen-like, spacious lounge with wi-fi which is available for private events, meetings, or simply use at your leisure.
The jaw-droppingly beautiful neighborhood—comprised of immaculately preserved historic Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, and neo-Tudor style homes—seems almost too good to be true: a charming suburb inside city limits, with a warm, diverse community, tree-lined streets, and one of the country’s richest concentrations of Victorian architecture. The fact that few leave once they have made the unique area home is a testament to the incomparable appeal of a city neighborhood that has the feel of a traditional, picture-perfect, tree-lined village abundant with flowers and friendly faces just miles from downtown Manhattan and a short walk takes you to the retail district along Cortelyou Road, which is bubbling with an eclectic mix of authentic, family-owned and new and exciting restaurants, bars, cafes, delis, and shops and the Cortelyou Greenmarket is an integral part of the community. The area is also home to several fabulous music venues and is mere minutes from the resplendent Kings Theatre. 20 minutes to the beach! Subway service slices down the middle of Ditmas Park, with the Q train stopping at Beverley Road, Cortelyou Road, and Newkirk Plaza, plus bonus B train service at Newkirk. Parking spaces are also prevalent throughout the neighborhood.
