This Weekend's Ditmas Park Open House Picks
We’ve rounded up some of the more interesting open houses happening in and around Ditmas Park this weekend. Any thoughts on these places?
1600 Beverley Road #2A (Sponsored)
List Price: $849,000, $499 common charges
Size: Two bedrooms, two bathrooms
Details: Not only does this unit in the Vista have over 1,200 sq ft of space — it’s also particularly good looking space including sleek floors, modern kitchen and bath finishes, light from multiple sides, and not one but two private terraces in addition to a communal roof deck. Besides that, it comes with a central air system, an in-unit washer and dryer, extra storage, and a tax abatement for nearly another decade; plus location-wise, it’ll put you steps from the Q at Beverley and a block from good things on Cortelyou.
Open House: Sunday, April 12, 1-3pm
1701 Albemarle Road #E14
List Price: $325,000, $337 maintenance
Size: Studio, one bathroom
Details: You’d probably rather spend $325k on a one bedroom than a studio, but one nice thing about this stunner is you may just be able to convert it. For now, pros of the unit include built-in shelving, arched entryways, and parquet floors, as well as an updated kitchen and in-unit laundry facilities, and the building offers a doorman and bike storage as well as (wait listed) parking and other storage space. As for location, you’ll be a quick walk to subway trains and other amenities on Church.
Open House: Sunday, April 12, 2-3:30pm
1825 Foster Avenue #4B
List Price: $599,000, $589 maintenance
Size: Two bedrooms, one bathroom
Details: This sweet, sunny two bed has all the great details of the above studio, plus a sunken living room, a bay window in the master, and a contemporary kitchen. There’s a formal dining area for holiday (or regular day) dinners, windows in the kitchen and bathroom, and building amenities including a part-time doorman, common laundry, and bike storage — plus you’ll be just a few blocks from subways and shopping at Newkirk Plaza, and you won’t even have to submit an application to the board. Nice!
Open House: Sunday, April 12, 2:30-4pm
256 E 9th Street
List Price: $1,250,000
Size: Five bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms
Details: This sweet house verges into Kensington, but it’s still only a short walk from the main drag of Cortelyou and priced significantly lower than detached homes for sale to the east of CIA. Its finishes are a bit outdated, but it seems to get lovely light, its yard includes three garages, and its two family status could come in handy for offsetting those mortgage and reno costs with a bit of rental income. Goodness knows a lot of renters around here would love private parking!
