Kensington One-Bedroom With Five Closets Asks $2,950

"The four-story brick building is one in a stretch of four apartment houses built between 1922 and 1924, all with Colonial Revival touches like swag- or urn-adorned lintels and entrances framed with pilasters or columns and topped with a dentil cornice. Records for two of the buildings, 183 and 201 Ocean Parkway, show they were built by the Olga Realty Co. and designed by Shampan & Shampan."

"A renovation after the one-bedroom last sold in 2021 kept the wood floors in the main rooms, including the central foyer, which is large enough to function as a dining room or an office. This central room is open to the windowed kitchen, which has white cabinets, open shelving, and a dishwasher. A new tile floor replaces the wood one shown in the old listing photos."

Prewar four-story brick co-op on Ocean Parkway in Kensington sits a few blocks from the Parade Ground. The building, constructed between 1922 and 1924, features Colonial Revival details and likely connects to Shampan & Shampan and the Olga Realty Co. A renovated one-bedroom on the fourth-floor walk-up preserved main-room wood floors and a central foyer large enough for dining or an office. The windowed kitchen includes white cabinets, open shelving, a dishwasher, and a new tile floor. The living room offers treetop views, recessed lighting, pale green walls, low 1920s paneling, and noise-reducing windows. The bedroom features purple tones and one of five closets. The full bath has white subway tile, oversized black hex floor tile, and a white vanity. The co-op requires a board application for renters and provides laundry, a courtyard, and is pet friendly.
