494 S Ocean Ave

A two-story midcentury multifamily residence constructed in 1950, composed primarily of garden- and walk-up style apartments. Units are predominantly one- and two-bedroom layouts with original-era details updated over time: hardwood flooring, open living/dining plans, and eat-in or efficiency kitchens with modern counters. First-floor homes frequently include features such as entrance foyers, a downstairs master and full bath, private entrances and small terraces. Common interior traits reported across listings include granite or marble counters, ceiling fans, generous closet space and abundant windows that provide natural light. Shared building amenities are minimal and practical — mailbox service and on-site laundry in the basement in some listings — while private parking is available as detached one-car garages for some units. The exterior reads residential and low-rise, set near retail corridors; its location offers immediate walkability to dining, shopping, nightlife and waterfront attractions, with highway access and public transit nearby. Pet policy and full-service offerings vary by owner; the property’s character blends preserved midcentury fabric with periodic modern renovations targeted at functional everyday living rather than luxury finishes.
