Affordable homeownership is increasingly hard to find on Long Island's South Shore, and this second-floor, garden-style one-bedroom co-op at 297 Merrick Rd in the Village of Amityville offers a rare entry point at an accessible price. Wood floors run throughout the unit, and the spacious bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed with ample closet space. Located close to local shopping, dining, and everyday Amityville village amenities, this co-op is also within walking distance of the private, locals-only beach, home to the Village's Supper by the Bay waterfront gatherings and relaxed summer evenings. On-site laundry and additional private storage in the basement round out the building's everyday conveniences. Co-ops at this price point are limited on Long Island, and this one comes with the numbers to back it up: the monthly maintenance covers Town of Babylon taxes, Village of Amityville taxes, exterior maintenance, common area maintenance, snow removal, water, sewer, and heat. A straightforward opportunity to own instead of rent, in a village worth living in.
