This Weekend’s Ditmas Park Open House Picks
We’ve rounded up some of the more interesting Ditmas Park open house listings for this weekend. Any thoughts on these places?
135 Ocean Parkway #4G
List Price: $240,000, $541 maintenance
Size: Studio, one bathroom
Details: Sure, it’s a studio, but it’s no postage stamp with a peephole. This 600-square-foot place features a wall of windows as well as a quirky alcove space that really defines its sleeping area, plus a small but nicely updated kitchen and plenty of room, it looks like, for more furniture than its current owner has. The pet-friendly building offers common laundry, a doorman, (wait listed) parking, central air (included in maintenance!), and extra storage, and as for location, you’ll be near Prospect Park as well as good things on Church and Fort Hamilton Parkway.
Open House: Saturday, May 9, 1-4pm
901 Avenue H #6E
List Price: $449,000, $813 maintenance
Size: Two bedrooms, one bathroom
Details: This top floor two bed just west of CIA comes in at about 1,150 square feet which includes two large bedrooms, a formal dining area, a sunken living room, an eat-in kitchen, and some really decent closet space. The renovated prewar unit still has its original arched entryways and lovely inlaid herringbone parquet floors — and in more recent developments, buyers can enjoy an updated kitchen with dishwasher, a separate tub and shower, and the knowledge that Ditmas Park is apparently the next San Francisco.
Open House: Sunday, May 10, 3-4:30pm
1155 Ocean Avenue #6C
List Price: $625,000, $831 maintenance
Size: Three bedrooms, two bathrooms
Details: This 1,500-square-foot unit by Brooklyn College features in-unit laundry, a gorgeous updated kitchen that opens right into the living room, good closet space including a walk-in in the master, and at least one stunning bathroom (though that flooring in the one bedroom is a little weird). There’s parking for rent if you’re into that sort of thing, or you could easily grab the Newkirk Plaza B/Q or the 2/5 at Flatbush Avenue.
Open House: Saturday, May 9, 12-1:30pm
811 Avenue H
List Price: $778,000
Size: Four bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms
Details: When was the last time you saw a neighborhood home in this condition for under two million, let alone under one? This limestone darling just south of Avenue H offers bedrooms for a the whole family, plus a slew of original details (that fireplace! That woodwork in the dining room! Those wardrobes! Those. Wardrobes.), and a backyard with deck for the price of some Park Slope one bedrooms. The catch? It butts up to the subway tracks — but if that doesn’t bother you, you can add “quick access to transportation” to your list of pros.
Open House: Sunday, May 10, 1-2:30pm
