Description

Come make this big and bright 2-bedroom unit your next home! Apartment #5F is fully renovated with an open layout, great closets, tons of sunlight, and your own private outdoor space - plus all utilities are included in your maintenance!

Featuring a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops, the open concept kitchen flows seamlessly out to the spacious living room. There is room for a variety of work-from-home layouts, and there are numerous walk-in closets in the foyer and main bedroom, so storage is of no concern here. Building amenities include a newly renovated lobby, laundry room, on-site super, gym and gorgeous outdoor terrace. There are also for-rent storage units and parking spaces (both with a wait list) and a new bike room in the complex.

The Texas is a well maintained co-op in the heart of Kew Gardens, and also one of the few that accepts pets in the area. (One dog allowed with board approval, thirty pounds maximum). Close by you'll find the LIRR station to Manhattan and points east on the Island, and the E/F Union Tpke subway station is reachable by foot or bus within minutes. A great area for those who also need to drive to work, all the major highways in Queens criss-cross close by - but none come too close to the bucolic street you'll call home, where you will be around the corner from neighborhood mainstays like Dani's Pizza, Austin's Ale House, Homestead grocery, and multiple supermarkets, local shops and basic conveniences.
