Here’s what you can get in Brighton Beach for the price of a historic brownstone: A penthouse condo at the Oceana complex. Oceana is a gated community with amenities like a fitness center and indoor and outdoor pools. $2 mil will nab you the 2,200-sf unit pictured above, which has three bedrooms and two baths. Common charges=$1,400. According to StreetEasy, this listing doesn’t even represent the most expensive unit in the development, which is made up of seven buildings: That honor goes to a $2.7 million penthouse that’s also on the market.

  1. to all the russian hating posers on this site i’d like to just take a moment to rub your ignorant nose in the fact that people who were not even born in this country can make more money than your sorry lazy incompetent butt.

    as someone who lives in the complex i have to say … dont hate me cause i have more money than your sorry family.

    and you can come over and suck my salty piska any time retard

  2. I bet the Fabergé eggs sold right off the top.

    I think the decorator bought the Goncharova though. I have no idea why really rich people think that more is always going to be more. Some of the houses I’ve been to, some of the McMansions being built- if it’s big, if it’s encrusted with stuff, and is busier than the Marie Antoinette’s bedroom it must scream “TASTE!!!” If you can get your hands on a copy of a book called “The Gilded Age”, about homes of the rich in Newport, the only word is omigod. And not always in a good way. For some of the Vanderbilt houses wretched excess is far more accurate. So although I think this decorator was going for the Peter the Great vibe, it isn’t just a Russian thing. At least he didn’t put clear plastic covers on the furniture. 🙂

  3. 11:00, we get it but we DON’T CARE what others think. Clearly you don’t understand that and never will. The sooner you realize we won’t stop, the better for you. Yes, keep mentioning us because every mention is another post and another chance to jump into the fray!

  4. June 12 (Bloomberg) — Christie’s International sold 11.3 million pounds ($22 million) of Russian paintings, Faberge, military regalia, silver and porcelain in London yesterday, missing the company’s expectations.
    Only three of the top 10 lots and 66 percent of the 298 items offered sold. Christie’s presale estimate, which doesn’t
    include the auction house’s commission, was 13.1 million pounds to 19.2 million pounds.
    The results jolted a market used to auction records. Many dealers and collectors said Christie’s estimates on Russian art were too high, considering prices of other types of artworks might rise faster.
    “Rich Russians aren’t stupid,” said Katya Dolgova, a Moscow-based art dealer. “You can get a Matisse or Monet for two to four million dollars, so why spend that money on a Goncharova?”

    Or a tacky Brighton Beach condo??

  5. russians are far and away the most obnoxious immigrant group to invade this city. they generally have bad taste, bad manners and are bad neighbors.

  6. You and bxgrl are truly sad sacks. You guys just can’t read and are so self-absorbed.

    Lots of people have complained to you before about your constant self-involved posts. You don’t get it and you never will. You truly ruin this site. Then again, this is all about you so it doesn’t matter does it?

    Do you even read what others write or do you see your names in someone else’s threads and think this is your opportunity to talk about yourself again then pat yourself on the back for some inane comment?

    You are really no better than the What. And yes, that is an insult.
