Property Description
At 1,914 square feet, this home offers generous proportions throughout, with well sized rooms and a layout that provides plenty of flexibility for everyday life and entertaining. Original character can be found throughout, including beautiful hardwood floors with custom inlays that remain in excellent condition. The first floor offers two bedrooms, including the primary bedroom, along with a full bath. The second floor features two additional bedrooms and a half bath. A full basement provides additional space, including an extra room and ample storage, while the detached garage adds even more convenience. The property also features an in ground sprinkler system.
Taxes are under $9,000, including the Village of East Rockaway, making this property an exceptional value. Another major advantage is the existing natural gas service already inside the home. While the home is currently heated by oil, the gas infrastructure is already in place, giving the next owner the opportunity to convert to gas heating and cooking. The home also features upgraded 200 amp electric service. Cooling is provided by high efficiency ductless units.
The location is just as special. Mill River Park is right down the block, while downtown Rockville Centre is easily accessible for restaurants, shopping and entertainment. The LIRR is also nearby, offering easy access to Manhattan. For added peace of mind, the home experienced no water intrusion during Hurricane Sandy, an important detail for a property in this area and peace of mind for the next owner. Owned by the same owner for well over 50 years, this is a home that has stood the test of time and preserved the details that make it special. Opportunities to purchase a property with this level of original craftsmanship, solid masonry construction, impressive living space, remarkably low taxes and such a convenient location are increasingly rare. If you appreciate a home with genuine character, space and craftsmanship that cannot be recreated today, 157 Oceanview Road deserves a closer look. Some homes are simply different, and this is one of them.
