A 1910 single-family house with deep family trust roots, living on a active Ocean Hill stretch.
A single-family Ocean Hill townhouse built in 1910 that has stayed in family trust ownership through successive generations, most recently transferring into an irrevocable trust in September 2024. As a single-family home, it generates no shared tenant filings or routine city housing oversight. Three things to know:
Long-term family ownership that keeps title inside the trust. Title transferred from an earlier living trust into an irrevocable family trust in September 2024. Decades of deeds show intra-family transfers rather than market turnover, pointing to long-term family stewardship.
Surrounding blocks carry a steady baseline of street and party noise. Within three blocks, residents logged 76 residential noise complaints over the last year, dominated by loud music and parties (50 calls). The house itself generates no noise filings, but the surrounding blockface stays active.
Curb space on the surrounding blocks is under constant pressure. The surrounding three blocks recorded 80 illegal parking calls over the last year, with posted sign violations and blocked hydrants leading the tally. Curb space around Saratoga Avenue is tightly contested.
