Property Description for 2-40 51st Ave, 3-M

PLEASE NOTE: Saturday, March 26th Open House is CANCELLED! Beautiful 2-Bedroom Unit with Private Terrace Available in Luxury Boutique Condo in LIC! One Subway Stop to Manhattan.

Rarely on the market in LIC, this 2-bedroom/2-bathroom duplex apartment with 550 square feet of private outdoor space is available for purchase. The apartment is in one of LIC's most conveniently-located boutique condo buildings, The Foundry, putting waterfront parks, shops, bars, restaurants, and schools a few steps from your door. The Vernon/Jackson subway stop is just minutes away, with Manhattan's Grand Central one subway stop away.

The apartment's hardwood floors, marble bathrooms, granite counter-tops, and built-in wine cooler establish a foundation of luxurious touches that continue with stainless steel appliances by Bosch, Jenn-Air, and Kitchen-aid. The open-kitchen layout flows perfectly into the dining room and living room, which boasts high ceilings and bright natural light. The layout is fantastic, with each of the bedroom and bathrooms on separate floors. Washer and dryer, dishwasher, and garbage disposal in unit!

While the building has a massive common roof deck for its residents, this apartment includes not one but two private terraces--one just off the master bedroom, and another rooftop terrace directly accessible from the apartment. At over 500 square feet of private outdoor space, you'll have plenty of room to entertain family and friends, soak up the sun, or grow your own herbs and vegetables, all while enjoying views of the Empire State Building.

The Foundry's amenities include concierge services, a state-of-the-art fitness room, and a common roof deck. This unit has a parking spot available separately for $75,000. 421-A tax abatement in place until June 30th, 2024. This gem won't last.

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.
