Description

PIN DROP QUIET! Located within The Monroe, one of Jackson Heights most sought buildings, this sun filled, west facing one bedroom was gut renovated to produce a sound proof space out of the living room. Double city windows, soundproofed walls, ceiling and floor, insulated doors; whether for practical use as a music studio, or simply as an enclave from the hustle of the street, this unit becomes a true oasis from the city and the rest of the building. The bedroom easily fits a king bed plus furniture and the apartment features four closets. The Monroe has new elevators, a new roof, new laundry room and all Local Law 11 recently completed and paid for without assessment. A live in super takes meticulous care of the property, which also features a large common garden split among a few buildings. Pets are welcome.

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.
