Description

Experience the grandeur of Jackson Heights garden apartment living in this sun-kissed three-bedroom, two-bathroom co-op featuring expansive living space, garden views and an outstanding location at the revered Hampton Court. Inside this warm and welcoming 2nd floor home, 9-foot ceilings dotted with ceiling fans and recessed lighting rise above Brazilian cherry floors, handsome moldings and sunny windows along the eastern and western exposures. Imagine relaxing alongside charming bay windows in the large living room and entertaining in a formal dining room overlooking the verdant garden. Cooks will love the windowed kitchen, where custom cabinetry, white quartz counters, and classic subway tile surround a full complement of stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. The split-bedroom layout begins with a serene owner's suite featuring a walk-in closet and a windowed en suite bathroom with a glass shower, roomy vanity, wide medicine cabinet and linen closet. Across the home, a separate wing includes two spacious and bright secondary bedrooms and an equally well-appointed full guest bathroom. An in-unit washer-dryer and additional closet space complete this Jackson Heights beauty. Designed by the famed George H. Wells, The Hampton Court Apartments were built in 1919 with 11 neo-Georgian red brick and white stone buildings surrounding a lush central garden. Each walk-up building operates as a separate co-op. Residents of well-maintained 35-56 79th Street enjoy live-in superintendent service, laundry, resident storage and a bike room. Pets and 75% financing are permitted with board approval. No smoking or subletting allowed. A 1% flip tax is payable by the buyer. Featuring a desirable Jackson Heights Historic District location, this home is close to 37th Avenue shopping and abundant international dining destinations. Short walking distance to the local 34th Avenue open street, Paseo Park. Three blocks away, Travers Park provides a playground, sports courts and a wonderful year-round greenmarket. Enjoy world-class recreation and entertainment at Flushing Meadows Corona Park, the USTA Tennis Center, Citi Field and the upcoming New York Football Club stadium complex. Nearby 7, E, R, and F/M trains, excellent bus service, the BQE, and LaGuardia Airport provide easy access to the rest of the city and beyond.

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.
