Property Description for 2-17 51st Ave, 910

We are excited to bring this spectacular upgraded corner luxury residence to market at the Powerhouse  - touted as the 'it' building in LIC's beautiful waterfront. With its 11 oversized tinted windows in a stellar glass rotunda living room, this incredible space is also enhanced by industrial steel beams and features a state-of-the-art home entertainment system in a unique built-in console where, when not is use, the TV descends as hidden by way of an elevated-lift remote control device.

Wonderfully expansive, this rare layout boasts 1,752 sq ft in this 3BR/3BA with a myriad of ceiling height windows that also encompass a wonderfully airy & reconfigurable dining area furnished with custom storage. The entryway leads you down a hall to a fully remodeled & upgraded chef's kitchen with a floating marble waterfall countertop complimented by exotic Zebra wood panels, white lacquer cabinets and crisp glass backsplash.The built-in wine fridge, WOLF line of appliances and customized Sub-Zero refrigerator will appeal to any home chef.  Bright and spacious, both living and dining areas instantly invite social gatherings with its 10+ ceilings offset by the rich warmth of the American walnut hardwood floors. 

The enormous master bedroom features both a standard and large customized walk-in closet as well as a built-in office space. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms do not disappoint in size nor in their ample closet space, and are split in layout for maximum privacy.   They equally offer large noise reducing windows that stream in lots of light. Defining the lush master ensuite are Italian marble tiling, rainfall shower in a glass enclosed walk-in stall, double Kohler sink, Toto toilet and Grohe chrome fixtures. And the two other bathrooms alternate with a deep soaking tub and an overhead rain shower - both featuring Lacava sinks, Kohler fixtures and a combo marble and wood vanity.  The home also offers a stackable Bosch washer/dryer and a multi-zone heating and cooling system. The 421A tax abatement is in place until 2024.

THE BUILDING AND AMENITIES: Extraordinarily chic, the Powerhouse invites you into an elegant setting where old industrial details merge with modern touches creating a unique atmosphere.   The wide range of amenities offers luxury for a pampered lifestyle: 24/7 concierge, live-in super, fitness center, residents' lounge equipped with a pool table, plasma TV and a wet bar, a screening room fully outfitted with cinema-caliber projectors and screen, cold storage for worry-free grocery deliveries, children's playroom, bike storage, expansive common rooftop with breathtaking Manhattan views & BBQ grills.

LOCATION: Only one block away from the Gantry riverside walkways & parks, the Powerhouse is in a much desired location.  The 7 train is close by, which takes you to Midtown 6 minutes, and the East River ferry access is steps away as well.  Popular supermarkets, Duane Reade, schools and the new library are all accessible within a short walk, while Vernon Blvd with all its charming restaurants, cafes and unique shops is a mere block and a half away.  With its ideal location, the Powerhouse brings tranquility and convenience and has become one of the most desired condo buildings in LIC.

Showing by appointment only. Please allow for a minimum of a 48-hr notice.

Long Island City | Queens

Quick Profile

Long Island City, the name does sound a little far away, like it requires a lengthy drive to get to. Think, again. Long Island City, also known as LIC, is nestled in the western corner of Queens along the East River. Midtown Manhattan is closer to Long Island City than it is to downtown Manhattan.

 LIC is bordered by Sunnyside to the east, the East River to the west, Astoria to the north, and Newton Creek which separates Queens from Greenpoint Brooklyn to the south. 

 A once-shabby manufacturing epicenter, the neighborhood is a mix of industrial, commercial and residential. In recent years it’s seen a rise in some seriously cool factors. Populated by young professionals, multi-ethnic immigrants, and hipsters, LIC has a happening nightlife scene, fantastic restaurants (some of them Michelin starred), art museums and galleries. Much of the waterfront access has been redeveloped into sustainable public green spaces with modern design.  

 Although much of the industrial / manufacturing companies have since left LIC, many still reside there. They tend to co-exist with new residential building development the same way they do in other neighborhoods like Williamsburg and Greenpoint.

 Office building developers and business tenants play a vital role in LIC too. It’s considered New York City’s fourth central business district next to Midtown, downtown Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn.

 As you traverse the streets of LIC, you’ll notice the change from block to block. Industrial warehouses on one block, a bustling Main Street, followed by a park block with sleek luxury high-rise buildings. It’s all part of the LIC vibe.

 For a small neighborhood, the transportation links are excellent. For starters, you just can’t beat living one subway stop from Manhattan (7 train). Other train lines include E, M, R, N, Q, and the G lines. There are also less conventional methods of transportation like the NYC Ferry, which offers three ferry landings. There is no shortage of CitiBike’s in LIC either. Many folks commute to work by way of cycling over the Queensboro Bridge.
