April 14 Annadale Listings Neighborhoods New York Real Estate Staten Island

Living Room Annadale Staten IslandOur latested listing sits in the community of Annadale, Staten Island located on the South Shore had it’s first settlers in 1929. Migrating from Spain, these settlers began purchasing property along the Annadale shoreline which quickly became known as the Spanish Camp.
 
The first homes there were first tents and then later on, bungalows began to be built. It wasn’t until later into the 20th century that the land was cleared as larger upscale homes were being built. Although much of the woodlands have been cleared, 222 acres of land was preserved in order to create what is now known as the Blue Heron Park Preserve. A wildlife preserve which consists of meadows, ponds, streams, woodlands and even a 2.5 million dollar, 5,000 square foot Nature Center that was built in the late 90s.

Another unique aspect of Annadale is that it is one of the few communities left in Staten Island that are considered walking towns meaning it is just a short walking distance to the neighboring stores.  In the heart of Annadale is what natives like to call Annadale Town.  It is a shopping circle located between Annadale Road and Jefferson Boulevard  that has an abundance of stores to meet the everyday needs.  From a bank, to a diner, to even a local bakery that in the morning fills the streets with the aromas of freshly baked breads.

In and around the heart of Annadale there have been many affordable townhomes and semi-attached homes built.  Our latest listing at 717 Annadale Road priced at $429,000 is one such home.  This 3 bedroom, 2 bath townhome boasts 1,330 square feet of home, giving plenty of space to move about.  On the first level there is a large family room complete with a bath and glass sliding doors leading to an almost maintenance free yard finished with new PVC fencing.

March 26 Annadale Listings Neighborhoods Real Estate Staten Island

Amazing quality craftsmanship along with a great location makes this side hall colonial on Staten Island’s South Shore something to behold.

Our latest new home listing on Staten Island truly one of a kind. It’s an amazing array of old charm, outstanding craftsmanship all with an uncanny sense of opulence many times unseen in other newer constructed homes. It’s a home where the builder saw the little details being paramount in the construction, which made for a finished and complete look to this homes décor. When you look about the home those details clearly stand out from the ordinary. Some of the more prominent details the builder put into the home were the upgraded moldings, trim work, concave ceilings. However, even more prominent are the solid six panel doors, decorative hardwood floors, wood styled railings and are the prominent features throughout the home, even by the most casual observation. It a new construction a home that really feels complete.
       
As for its location, the home sits in the South Shore Community of Annadale, Staten Island located off Jefferson Boulevard. Another feature is the home on a dead end street, which is both secluded and private due to the adjacent protected woodlands surround the home.

As you enter the home, you will find the foyer of the home. It’s at this point it hits you, basically feeling there is something special about this home. Again, it’s the finish work that clearly distinguishes this home from a lot of new construction, which can appear at times to be a bit bland. The theme of the interior is old world. As a matter of fact, the hallways that lead you to the homes second and third levels, reminds me of brownstone homes found in Brooklyn. When you visit the home, you’ll feel this

Entry 297 Rensselear Ave, Staten Island

Entry Foyer

 vastly different than most of the homes found here.  Hallways believe it or not bring status to a home, and the builder clearly defined that in this home.
 
The entry foyer is fully tiled and features recessed lighting, with all wood railings that bring an elegant touch to the home. The first floor of the home is quite unique as well, and its allure is unmistakable. Keeping true to a more traditional theme, carefully placed nooks break up the monotony of the floor plan, creating an elegant appeal when gazing from one room to the next. The idea was out of the box when it comes to today’s more modern interiors, which can lack a bit character. However, it’s not just that these nooks exist, but how each was designed. The photo on the right gives you an idea.
 
Under the tiled floor, there is radiant heat, which runs from the entry foyer right into the kitchen. Continuing on the first floor move you will find the formal dining room to your left and straight ahead you will find the eat in kitchen. The formal dining room has access from both the homes main corridor and the kitchen.  Speaking of the Kitchen, it comes complete with granite countertops, a center island, and comes with brand new appliances with the exception of a refrigerator.  Not to mention its size makes a full eat in. Like mentioned earlier, the room feature radiant heat. 
At the rear of the home, you will find the home’s living room, it’s both large and wonderfully appointed with crown molding and classic style hardwood floors. Another nice feature, recessed lighting brings elegance to the room.  These features aren’t limited to this room; it’s something you’ll find throughout the house.
 
Moving up to the homes second level is the homes other three bedrooms, and their anything but ordinary. The trot up the stairs in this house is quite unique. The main hallway is wider and much more elegant than a typical hallway. The builder took a page out of yesteryear making the hallway aesthetics emblematic of what you would find in a posh Brooklyn Brownstone.
 
Throughout the homes second floor, and harwood floors are the theme.  Both the master bedroom and homes first bedroom feature amazing 14 foot dome ceilings that bring an uncanny opulence to each. One thing you will be sure to notice, all bedrooms have a considerable amount of closet space. An important note, you will only find six panel hardwood doors throughout this home. It’s just one of many details that went into the quality construction and detail this particular builder put into the home.
 
The master bedroom feels palace like. The combination of domed ceilings, lighting and openness of the room gives the room a spectacular ambiance. Again, the master bedroom features a bathroom suite with a full body length, multi head stand up shower, his and her sink, and Jacuzzi tub. There is a full sized master bath on the floor servicing the homes other 3 bedrooms rooms, one of which sits up another level.
 
The home features a full finished basement with wall to wall tiles and laundry room. There is a separate entrance from the basement leading to the homes side yard.
 
So, if you’re in the market of new construction on Staten Island, this home features spectacular aesthetic quality and craftsmanship, all with an uncanny opulence not seen in many similar priced new construction homes. Our latest listing on Rensselaer in the Annadale section of Staten Island is a home worth putting on that list of homes to see.

Home for Sale- 60 Ocean Rd. Great Kills, Staten Island

0
January 20 Annadale Listings Neighborhoods Staten Island

The popular perception of the natural migration of families leaving Brooklyn to purchase a home seems to be, first they move to Staten Island and then later on to New Jersey.  All too often you’ll find that this migration is put at a standstill when that first purchase lands them in Great Kills, Staten Island, even more specific the Dent Road area of Great Kills.
 
Its family-friendly setting coupled with a country-like ambiance seems to be key factors why most people who reside in the Dent Road area of Great Kills don’t want to leave.   Many residents refer to this area as a town rather than a neighborhood due to its wonderful old world charm. This area has little turnover over the years. Consequently, many of the homes here, stay in the same family for generations. For that reason home values have remained stable, and those that do sell run in the price range from the low $400,000s to upwards of $800,000.

The other feature you will come to understand about this homes location is its neighbors, the natural kind. Basically, all of the streets are lined with 200+ year old oaks, maples and pines. The Dent Road area of Great Kills, is by far one of the best naturally shaded areas on Staten Island. The home sits on gradual hillside slope, with the rear of the home having a southeast exposure. Not being far from the Raritan Bay, this home takes in cool ocean sea breeze nearly all summer long.
A Stoll down Great Kills Road, which is the homes cross street, gives you quick access to Great Kills Harbor, The New Seaside Nature Park and a slew of Staten Island’s best restaurants on Mansion Ave.
 
Our latest listing at 60 Ocean Road, priced affordably at $419,000 lies in the heart of the highly desired Dent Road Area.  Deceiving from the outside, this one family semi-attached colonial home boasts 1,953 square feet of living space and a property size of 2,325 square feet.
  
The first allure upon entering this 3 bedroom home is the oversized living room that  is a rare find in even many detached homes.  In addition to its formal dining room complete with a pantry and half bath, is a traditional kitchen that hosts a dinette area that can comfortably seat 6 people.  The entire first floor has an open and airy layout with lots of natural light that actually glistens throughout the entire home.

In the formal dining room there are also glass sliding doors giving access to the large deck that hosts both a dining and sunning area for those lazy summer days.  The deck has a staircase that leads down to the serene backyard complete with an above-ground pool.

Did I mention the convenience of a bathroom on every floor?  Yes, even a full bath in the full finished basement, which might I add, also has glass sliding doors that lead to the backyard.  So no worries on those summer afternoons of the children jumping out of the pool and tracking water through your home to go to the bathroom!
Although there may be a few slight updates needed to satisfy one’s taste, this oversized semi-attached home at 60 Ocean Road is a very rare find.  This airy and spacious home set in a quiet country like setting is a great place to come home to after the hustle and bustle of the busy every day.
