229 City Island Avenue, Bronx

    A 1900 City Island home that left family trust ownership in 2024, sitting on a main strip with active curb and venting signals nearby.

    A single-family wood-frame house on City Island Avenue built in 1900. It shifted out of long-term family ownership in June 2024 via a $530,000 transaction with private seller financing attached. Three things to know:

    Decades of family history ended in a seller-financed 2024 transaction. The property stayed in the same family and trust starting in 1979 before transferring to EC4 Properties, LLC in June 2024 for $530,000. That same day, a $380,000 mortgage was issued back to a family trustee, indicating private seller financing rather than institutional bank underwriting.

    Air quality and commercial food calls show up within three blocks. Over the last 12 months, the surrounding blocks logged two indoor air quality calls and a food establishment complaint. On commercial strips, air calls frequently stem from ground-floor cooking exhaust, restaurant grease traps, or shared riser drift that carries into upper residential windows.

    Curb space along City Island Avenue sees consistent parking enforcement calls. Over the last year, 61 illegal parking calls were filed within three blocks of the house. The pattern concentrates heavily around blocked hydrants and posted sign violations along the main avenue rather than stored or abandoned cars.
