Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
Ocean Avenue between Avenue U and Avenue T is home to this seven-story mixed-use building, and it has an elevator. The ground floor is set up for business, with floor-to-ceiling commercial storefronts and spaces delivered as vanilla boxes with HVAC, plumbing and sprinkler systems already in place. For a medical, retail, wellness or professional use, that's a real head start.
The residential side has seven free-market units and three affordable units, and many of them have private balconies or terraces. A balcony gives you outdoor air without leaving the apartment. I'd want to see its depth and how it faces before deciding how much it matters to you.
Each residence has a washer and dryer in the unit, which means no trip down with a laundry bag. The building is smoke-free, allows pets and is marked as a green building.
The Q train at Avenue U is about 7 minutes on foot, and Neck Rd is about 10 minutes. J&J Fresh Market is about 3 minutes away, and Igam Coffee, Spiro's and Sherdor are each about 1 minute. Mellett Playground is about 9 minutes away and Kelly Park Playground is about 10.
