Rockaway Beach Coastal 2-Family Gem with Ocean Views & Income Potential Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3,000 sq. ft. semi-attached two-family home, thoughtfully designed with a duplex on the top two floors and a spacious simplex apartment on the first floor. Built with brick, stone, and frame, this home blends timeless architecture, modern comfort, and exceptional versatility. The first-floor simplex offers a private 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with its own heating system and thermostat — perfect as an income-producing unit, in-law suite, or guest residence. Above, the owner’s duplex spans two full levels of refined living. The main floor features a stylish kitchen with a center island, stainless steel appliances, and a formal dining area that opens to a balcony overlooking the landscaped backyard. A bright, oversized living room with custom built-in closets and an updated half bath completes this inviting level. The top floor showcases a sun-filled primary suite with vaulted ceilings, a private ensuite bath, and an expansive balcony with beautiful ocean views and sea breezes. Two additional bedrooms with built-in closets, a full bath, and a linen closet provide comfort and convenience for the entire family. Additional highlights include new Marvin windows, a Navien high-efficiency heating system, a two-car driveway, and a fully gated property for privacy and peace of mind. Move-in ready and impeccably maintained, this is a true coastal treasure offering both lifestyle and income potential.
