Listing Notes

Rockaway-The Hamptons of New York City Rare opportunity to buy into the historic bungalow community in Rockaway located just minutes away from the Atlantic Ocean and its beaches. Listed in the National Register of Historic Places, this bungalow is a piece of New York City life the way it was at the turn of the twentieth century where life was simple and uncomplicated. Just a train ride away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, yet convenient enough to hop back into the city at any time-and no headache dealing with traffic out to the Hamptons. The simplicity of the area has long held an attraction for creative and artistic minds of all kinds- musicians, architects, sculptures, painters and various IT minds. Although this heated bungalow has two bedrooms and two sitting areas, it has accordion like expansion to accommodate of all ages and is a perfect vacation home and year-round weekend getaway. Cozy front porch and back deck are easy to maneuver and are the perfect spots to read and relax. Convenient to shopping and public transportation to say nothing of the boardwalk, which is perfect for those who bike, or jog.
