Description

Move right in to this lovely, spacious one-bedroom home located in The Amherst Building one of the most desirable cooperatives in the heart of the Jackson Heights Historic District. This unit is the cheerful, inviting home youve been waiting for. Upon entering through the gracious foyer, youll be met by well-maintained hardwood floors, a fully-equipped, windowed kitchen with full-size range, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher, and windowed bathroom. The western and northern exposures allow for pleasant, natural sunlight and the four closets provide ample room for storage.

The Amherst Building is an elevator building served by a full-time porter staff, with on-site building Super and laundry facilities on premises. The co-op offers in door paking along with storage and bicycle room for a fee. The beautifully landscaped building is one of three connected by the walk-through basement. Subletting is permitted after two years residency, with board approval.

Youll love being a stones throw from New York Citys largest greenmarket in Travers Park, and nestled among wonderful boutique shops, restaurants, and grocery stores in this highly-desirable enclave. Conveniently located a few blocks from Subway lines 7, E, F, M, and R, your commute will be a breezewhether your work takes you to Manhattan, nearby airports, or elsewhere. But with neighborhood attractions as vast and varied as the offerings in Jackson Heights, you may be reluctant to go elsewhere. Enjoy your morning coffee at popular Espresso 77, savor the citys best arepas at famed Arepa Lady, sample gourmet grocery items at Lemon Farm, stock up on fine wines at Addictive Boutique Winery, dine on New American fare at The Queensboro, or pop into Jackson Diner for a late night, Indian meal. This neighborhood has it all the only thing missing is you!

Jackson Heights is a landmarked planned community originally built in the early 1900s, featuring prewar garden cooperatives with interior courtyards that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Approximately 80% of the housing stock consists of co-ops, with the remainder split among attached single-family homes, multi-family row houses, and detached residences, all served by the 7, E, F, M, and R trains at the Roosevelt Avenue hub. Travers Park provides green space, and the commercial corridors along Roosevelt Avenue and 37th Avenue anchor the neighborhood's retail activity.
