Property Description for 25 Oliver Street, 2-B

Welcome to the ever spacious and recently facelifted cooperative, "The Oliver".

The grounds are very well kept and the design of the interior of these buildings are a modern breath of fresh air in the typically Art Deco styled neighborhood of Bay Ridge. Often well-manicured property comes with a hefty maintenance cost, not here! Apartment #2B's maintenance is only $672.77/month! Some of the lowest carrying costs in all of Brooklyn!

With the home located on the second floor, the shareholder can either pop up the very wide stairway or use the newly renovated elevator.

This home is in the exterior corner of the building that allows for complete privacy. This seclusion is emphasized by a long corridor that sequesters the heart of the living room away from the common area stairwell. This hall is not only used as a barrier, but is more than wide enough for a desk, kitchen table and tons of additional storage as depicted in the photographs. The entrance has two hallway closets.

Following the beautiful hardwood floors from the entrance, the new home owner will be lead to one of the best features this apartment has to offer. There is only one word to use when describing the living space and that is massive. With extensive length and width, any sized L-shape couch will fit against the window or either side wall. If laying out a dinner table in the hall is less preferable to formal dining in the living space, that is easily accomplished here. The space is outfitted with updated electrical outlets that are tied into switches at the room entrance.

If a tertiary option for dining is desired, you're in luck! This long galley kitchen also has ample room for a breakfast nook. The cooking space is updated with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, is sporting excessive wood cabinetry and has a few sizable slabs of this gorgeous black speckled granite. This kitchen is truly it's own separate room.

With such a large home, it only makes sense that the bathroom continues this theme. Width! Not only does this space not feel cramped, it feels open! Earthy wall and floor tiling compliment the home's theme while still offering a change of pace. Attractive fixtures and a deep tub equip the restroom.

Last, but certainly not least is the bedroom. Big. Big. Big. There is no king sized bedframe that would not fit in this room. Bring in your side tables, multiple dresses, armoire and even your work-from-home desk. A double wide closet is placed to the left of the entrance. The sleeping area has two exposures for sunlight.

25 Oliver Street's location is the best of both worlds. While being placed just off the corner of Shore Road, shareholders enjoy all of the luxuries of access to the water while avoiding the sound of the traffic that comes along with it. The building has a massive, extremely clean basement that houses the laundry room, storage cages and bike storage. A live-in super takes care of the property and the building even offers indoor and outdoor parking for additional cost (waitlisted).

The X27 and X37 express busses to Manhattan are right off shore road. The access to all of the parks along the water provide biking and jogging trails, baseball fields, basketball courts, football fields and plenty of grass to picnic on as the sun slides behind the iconic Varrazzano Bridge for premium photo ops. All of the access to Bay Ridge's shopping and endless dining are within a few minute's stroll. Cats only!

The Oliver awaits you.

Fort Hamilton | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Fort Hamilton has the unique distinction of being both a military base and a neighborhood in Brooklyn. Well, technically it’s a sub-neighborhood of Bay Ridge.

Named after founding father Alexander Hamilton, the neighborhood sits in the southwestern corner of Brooklyn and it’s about a square mile in size (give or take). Its boundaries are 86th Street to the north, Belt Parkway and Fort Hamilton military installation to the south, 7th Avenue to the east, and Shore Road to the west.

The area was originally inhabited by the Canarsie Indians and later settled by the Dutch in 1620. A few decades later, thanks to land grants from Governor Peter Stuyvesant, Cornelius Van Werckhoven from the Netherlands purchased what is now Bay Ridge and Fort Hamilton for a very small amount of money.

The area remained an isolated stretch of rural land until the electric trolley line was introduced to Brooklyn in 1892. The trolley connected various points of Brooklyn and Fort Hamilton soon flourished. .

Fort Hamilton and Bay Ridge experienced waves of immigration and just like other areas of New York City it became a true melting pot. Irish and Italians immigrants made their way to the neighborhood in the early part of the 20th century followed by Syrian and Lebanese immigrants in the 1950s. More recently, Asian and Arab-Americans call Fort Hamilton home.

Modern-day Fort Hamilton may not have the cool factor that other Brooklyn neighborhoods flaunt but there are many trade-offs. It offers tree-lined streets and friendly neighbors. Most residents will tell you it has a small-town feel with the added perk of affordable housing. Fort Hamilton’s proximity to the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and access to Manhattan-bound trains make it a very commutable neighborhood.
