Description

Welcome home to this simply expansive two bed, 2 bath co-op in Prime Kensington, right off lovely Ocean Parkway! Upon entering, there is a proper coat closet and welcoming entry hall. The space then expands to well sized entry foyer; the perfect place for your home office, or library and reading nook! to the right is the expansive living room, large enough for two distinct seating areas, with a double window at the end for maximum light and air. Off the living room is the windowed eat in kitchen with space for 6 around the dining room table. The kitchen has ample counter and cabinet space, as well as a dishwasher and built in water filtration system. Back in the main hallway, one finds two spacious storage closets, as well as the recently renovated hall bathroom with classic tiles and finishes, a shower tub combo with attractive glass sliders and a window. Down the hall are two bedrooms. The second bedroom is quite large and has double windows looking through the courtyard to E 5th Street beyond, enjoying lovely Western light. The oversized primary bedroom features two large (and exceptionally deep closets), as well as a light an airy feel thanks to double windows, as well as an en suite windowed bathroom with stall shower. The home has lovely pre-war details such as cove ceilings and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. 280 Ocean Parkway is a beautifully maintained, 114 unit, elevator building with stunning front gardens, a package room, common laundry, and a live-in super. There are large storage cages available to rent for $60 a month, and bike storage is available for $30 annually. Up to two cats (and other pets) are allowed, but sorry, no dogs. The location on picturesque Ocean Parkway and Beverly Road means you have the offerings of both Church Avenue such as La Loba Cantina, Der Pioneer, Wheated, Lark and Werkstatt, as well as those on Cortelyou Road, such as Plant Love House, the Farm on Adderley, Lea, Highbury Pub, Bar Chord, Sycamore Bar & Flower Shop, La Puerto Rojas, King Mother, Mimi's Hummus and The Castello Plan to name a few, all within 12 minutes walking, as well as the F&G at Church Avenue just 7 minutes away, and the Q at Beverly Road a mere 12 minute walk.
