About 3752 85th Street # 2
Your country home in the city! Bright, spacious 2 Bedroom, with Full Living and Dining Rooms, Four Exposures, Seven Closets, and Windows Galore!! This immaculately renovated apartment features all of the original architectural details, and newly refinished Oak Floors and Skim-Coated walls / ceilings, Picture Moldings, Recessed Overhead Lighting, MinkaAire reversible ceiling fans. With new electrical service throughout the unit.
One of just two apartments on the each floor, this welcoming space sits on the high first floor of a 105-Year Old walkup building. It's in one of the Ten Coop Buildings of Historic Linden Court, the first "internal Garden co-op" built in Jackson Heights. Way back then, this collection of Neo-Romanesque Buildings was, and still is, a paradise that features a large, peaceful "double-block long" interior Garden, with old-growth trees, varied seating areas, and stunning sunlight all day long.
As you enter this Historic home, through the Entry Foyer, with coat closet, there are both an open doorway to the Dining and Living Rooms, and a door to the Hallway leading to the back of the apartment and the "Private" Bedrooms and Full Bath.
The Corner Living Room, open by doorway and "pass-through" to the Dining Room, features Two Windows facing East to Quiet 85th St, and a wall of Three Windows facing South. If you removed the minor partition separating the two rooms, combining the LR with the Dining Room -- this open area would be about 450 Square feet!
The Kitchen, which features the original Pine Flooring and a large South-Facing Window, has been renovated with Light Walnut Cabinets, Stainless Steel Appliances, and ample Counter Space. This space could also be further "opened up" to the Dining Room, creating an even more "country home" feeling.
Both corner bedrooms include large dual-closets, and two Garden facing Western exposures, for daytime views of trees, landscaped greenery and sky, and oh-so peaceful nights.
The renovated bathroom includes beige floor and wall tiles, and a full-tub-sized shower with sliding glass door (but no tub).
Linden Court features just two apartments per floor. Parking garages (waiting list!). Free large private storage unit. Bike and laundry room. Pet Friendly Co-op: Cats and Dogs Allowed. Well-managed building with low maintenance and solid financials.
Needless to say, this Historic Jackson Heights apartment is well-located both for all kinds of shopping and easy access to public transportation. It boasts a "walk-score" of 99!!
Just a few short blocks to the "7" Trains and Buses along Roosevelt Avenue, within a block of 3 Supermarkets, including the organic Downtown Market Health Food Store. Minutes from all of the Ethnic Restaurants Jackson Heights is Famous for, and a ten minute walk to the Year-round Sunday Farmers' Market.
