Description
278 Sumpter Street is a charming 2 family townhouse nestled in the vibrant neighborhood of Ocean Hill. The upper duplex offers an expansive layout featuring a well-appointed modern kitchen, with Verde y Oro granite countertops, spacious cabinet cupboards, a dishwasher, restaurant sized refrigerator, and an eat-in style counter. The living space (off of the kitchen) is inviting with hardwood floors and is plenty comfortable with enough space to accommodate an incredibly large sectional that is sure fit all of your loved ones on. The first floor has access to the deck and yard, ensuring a perfect retreat for relaxing in the fresh air or hosting gatherings with friends
The main bedroom is located on the top floor, has great closets, or you could possibly get a small bedroom in the main space. The main bedrooms' bath is luxurious, with a full tub/shower, and a large skylight to enlighten the soul each morning. The home is bathed in natural light throughout the day, thanks to its two exposures, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance. Both the upper duplex and lower two bedroom feature a washer/dryer, definitely a welcome addition and a touch of modern convenience, enhancing the practical appeal of this property.
The Ground floor two-bedroom one bath is spacious and comfortable, and with rental prices these days, it could make up a sizable portion of your mortgage. The apartment also has a dishwasher, washer/dryer, and is separately metered with its own water heater.
Ocean Hill has convenient access to transportation, the A,C,J,L,Z, all within a few blocks making commutes and adventures around New York City a breeze. Did we mention parking? The building has gated parking with an actual curb cut, and enough space for two Escalades or (possibly) three Fiat 500s, or several motorcycles!
