Property Description for 2-17 51st Ave, 413

Perfect light streams through every oversize window in this wonderfully homelike corner apt of 1,268 SF with terrific southeast views facing the East River and NY’s Freedom Tower. 10 foot high ceilings give the apt delightful airiness while complimented by the deep richness of American walnut wood floors throughout. The massive living/dining area features built-in shelving and windows that span a full wall’s width. A Wedgewood ‘sushi bar’ wraps partially around the open setting of the efficient gourmet kitchen with its clean design elements of white lacquer cabinetry, glass back splash and quartzite stone counter top, accented with deep walnut tones. All this lends harmonized decor while being superbly upgraded with stainless steel Viking appliances. W/D in unit.

Both bedrooms are amazingly ample with the huge master bedroom offering lovely corner views and an en-suite w/ double sinks and luxurious finishes. The second bedroom extends enough space to comfortably accommodate a Queen size bed. Sizable closets throughout, including one at the welcoming entry foyer.

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.
