Description

LUXURY. LOCATION. LEGACY! Exceptional opportunity to own a truly grand residence in the heart of prestigious Forest Hills Gardens. This distinguished home was built by a famed Forest Hills Gardens builder who constructed many of the neighborhood’s iconic properties — and chose this home to build for himself, reflecting an extraordinary level of craftsmanship, detail, and pride of ownership. The elegant residence offers a dramatic entry, formal dining room, oversized eat-in kitchen, and a stunning step-down living room with fireplace. Both the living room and kitchen open onto a spectacular wraparound deck for all-summer enjoyment, complemented by a charming outdoor breezeway that enhances the home’s unique indoor-outdoor flow. Features include a residential elevator, hardwood floors throughout, wrought iron railings, spiral staircase, abundant closet space, and built-in speakers. Second floor offers 4 bedrooms / 3 baths; third floor provides 2 bedrooms / 1 bath. The finished basement includes multiple rooms, full bath, laundry, and mechanicals. Comfort is enhanced by 4-zone heating and 3-zone central air conditioning. Two-car garage. Approximately 4622 sq. ft. of living space. Bonus: Legal one-bedroom apartment over the garage, currently rented month-to-month and generating excellent income. A rare blend of architectural character, luxury living, and income potential in one of Queens’ most iconic neighborhoods — a true legacy property.
