Property Description for 189 Ocean Ave
Let the sun shine in this vintage Arts and Crafts Parkside home on an oversized lot with parking.
With east/west, exposures this semi-detached, multi skylight home is extremely bright throughout much of the day and into the evening, with the center stairway allowing for free-flowing light through the semi-open floorplan.
Presently configured as a two-bedroom, two and a half bath upper duplex over a one- bedroom, one bath unit, which includes use of the high-ceiling, seven window English basement. The unique multi-colored custom solid mahogany inlaid floors on the ground level were hand-laid by the current and third owner (giant chess pieces not included for the centerpiece chessboard pattern front living room floor).
The home has two-phased electric power from its early usage as a medical office and can be approved for daycare usage with minor modifications.
Situated on a 26.5ft x 150ft lot with a rear detached free-standing two car garage, the lot can accommodate additional vehicles.
Pass the beautiful front garden with a Japanese Maple on your way to the front porch where you can enjoy morning coffee, lunch, or dinner, and enjoy views of Prospect Park and listen to the music from the Prospect Park Bandshell. Every Sunday from April 3 – October 30 enjoy the world famous Smorgasburg Prospect Park just steps away into the Park.
The oversized lot with deeded garage and additional parking can easily lend itself to a medical practice or a professional who needs an at home office.
