429 Kent Avenue, Unit #L55, Brooklyn, NY 11249

SOLD on 6/4/25 for $2,400,000! We recently closed on this unit in the extraordinary condo development known as “The Oosten” at 429 Kent Ave. in Williamsburg. The sellers of this 3 bedroom condo were totally upside down in their mortgage and needed us to work with their lender to agree to allow them to sell for less than what was owed. Better known as a "Short Sale", this process is extremely challenging when it's a private house, and exponentially more challenging when it's a condo. The details are truly too exhausting to talk about but here's the summary: After about 15 months of time, 5 different bank appraisals, many showings, 2 separate sales contracts, several extensions, and an incalculable and insufferable amount of time and communication with all the parties, and several seemingly insurmountable last-minute surprises, we have finally closed this sale, and helped our clients move on with their lives as we committed to do in the very beginning. There is not a person in the world (including our clients) who would've blamed us for walking away from this listing at any point along the way; However breaking our word or turning our back on a client is NEVER an option at our company... Approved Short Sale! The bank is ready to consider all offers presented by us! This is an incredible opportunity to own an amazingly spacious 3 bedroom/3.5 bathroom condominium home located inside of "The Oosten", an architectural masterpiece of a building that prominently occupies a full city block, across from the waterfront, in vibrant Williamsburg, Brooklyn. This high floor, designer unit, with a semi-private street entrance and elevator, features a lovely entry foyer for coat and shoe storage, and a convenient powder room containing a separated commode. The entry foyer is separated from the rest of the living space by a large set of architectural French doors that makes for a dramatic entrance into the main living space. The unit features floor-to-ceiling windows throughout (Northern & Southern exposures) that welcomes and maximizes air and natural light flow throughout the inside of the home. The kitchen features top-of-the-line custom cabinetry, countertops and appliances, as well as a huge, windowed pantry closet. The sheer volume of living space that encompasses the dining room, great room and living room is extraordinary. The primary suite is equally impressive in size, and contains custom built-in cabinetry and closets, as well as a 5-piece bathroom. The other two bedroom suites are also spacious, and each contains its own individual 3-piece bathroom with walk-in shower, along with plenty of closet space. All three bedrooms have their own thermostats for optimal individual preferences of the heating and cooling settings. This unit also comes with rooftop access and a deeded storage room that contains roughly 285 cubic feet of private space in the building's basement. This truly is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a thoroughly impressive, well-maintained, modern, hardly used unit in a spectacular, full amenity building. The list of amenities available to the community of residents in this building is virtually endless and well documented; However, to put it simply, if you can imagine it, The Oosten likely has it, including a fully private, meticulously designed and manicured park in the center of the development that is both enveloped and overlooked by many of the residences (including ours). If living in a 5-Star Hotel & Spa resort is something that you desire, then this is your nirvana. The savvy, ready, willing and able buyer of this lifestyle condo will need to act fast, put their best foot forward, and submit their best highest offer no later than July 28th (along with proof of funds and/or pre-approval) to be considered for this unique opportunity. There's currently a tenant occupying the unit part-time (no lease) and paying a very nice monthly rent, but it will be delivered vacant on closing if the new owner so desires. Listed exclusively. Call us right away for your appointment to come visit the property and/or submit your offer. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE. This is an extraordinary opportunity to acquire an incredible unit, in an amazing building, located in a desirable area, well below its appraised value! Listing status will be updated daily by our office.
