Description

Back on the Market!! Now with a Brand-New, Fully Renovated Kitchen! Bright, Spacious One-Bedroom with Oversized Balcony in the Heart of Rego Park! Brand-new kitchen. Open Manhattan views. Sun-drenched from morning to night. This generously sized one-bedroom on the 8th floor of a full-service, doorman co-op in prime Rego Park has just been beautifully renovated, and it shows. Step inside and the first thing you'll notice is the brand-new, windowed kitchen, a true showstopper and the heart of this transformation. Stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, over-the-range microwave, and dishwasher, are set against beautiful quartz countertops. No detail was overlooked: the crisp white shaker-style cabinetry extends all the way to the ceiling with elegant crown molding, maximizing storage while giving the room an elevated, custom-built feel you won't find in a typical renovation. Finished with brushed nickel hardware and new tile flooring, it's a space designed for everything from quick weekday breakfasts to hosting friends for dinner. The bathroom has also been refreshed with a new shower door, adding a clean, modern touch throughout. Beyond the kitchen, the open layout allows for seamless living and dining, with natural light streaming in from dual exposures throughout the day. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers abundant closet space, so everything has its place and the home stays organized and clutter-free. Step out onto the expansive balcony that runs the full width of the apartment, your own private outdoor retreat in the sky, complete with Manhattan views. With no tall buildings blocking the skyline, sunlight pours in unobstructed, spilling across the balcony and straight through into the living room and bedroom. Your plants will thrive here, and so will you: picture morning coffee with the sun coming up over the city, or evenings spent unwinding as the skyline lights to the side of you. This well-maintained building offers a suite of amenities that elevate daily living: a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, two convenient laundry rooms, a playground, bike room, and available parking and storage options. Commuting is effortless with the E, M, F, and R trains close by, along with local bus service, and you'll be just steps from vibrant shops, food shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or simply looking for a beautifully updated home in a well-run building, this apartment is ready to welcome you in. Come see the difference for yourself; this is not the same apartment it was before.
