Property Description for 34-36 85th Street
Occupying a prime lot in the heart of the Jackson Heights Historic District, this landmark three-story house offers a full-floor living area, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, formal dining, four spacious bedrooms, three baths, a finished basement as well as a private back yard with a one-car garage.
Greeting you with its historic brick facade and landscaped front lawn, this early 1900's home ushers you up a staircase and into its spacious and bright living area, with a fireplace, formal dining room, a fully updated kitchen, and light pouring in through a wide span of windows. Immaculately refinished hardwood floors and the impeccably restored architectural interior truly add to its character.
Up the sky-lit staircase, you will find two spacious bedrooms and a beautifully renovated bath on each floor above. East-facing bedrooms enjoy the view of the tree-lined block while the west-facing windows look over the garden.
The kitchen was fully updated with beautiful light wood shaker cabinets as well as a full line of quality appliances, including a dishwasher, and a Bertazzoni pro series stove and oven hood installed September 2020. Food and refreshments easily flow to and from the kitchen and patio, which is immediately accessible through the door in the kitchen.
Accessible through the interior staircase and the exterior hatch, the finished basement offers an entertainment center, a bath, a dedicated room for tools and it is where the home's mechanicals are located, such as the water heater and the furnace. Additionally, you will find the washer and dryer, which were both installed in 2012.
Of course, no such home would be complete without a beautifully landscaped backyard and a garage, accessible through a private driveway.
This is a unique and once-in-a-lifetime purchase opportunity which we are excited to bring to the market. Showings are by appointment only and with a special showing protocol. Call to schedule!

Quick Profile
Jackson Heights has one of the most diverse populations in the city, and over 100 languages are spoken here. With this cultural diversity comes supporting restaurants, bars, shops and cultural opportunities. It is a mix of commercial and residential properties. There is a wide range of shops and service businesses, so that anything you would need, from a barber, to a pharmacy, to clothing, and food is available right in the neighborhood, no matter which culture or language you might need these services provided in.
Jackson Heights has three nicknames, based on micro-neighborhoods with the neighborhood as a whole. Little India occupies an area on 74th Street, while parts of 73rd Street are known as Little Pakistan. Little Columbia is along 37th Avenue.
A large portion of Jackson Heights has been designated as an historic district, from Roosevelt Avenue to Northern Boulevard, between the east side of 76th Street to the west side of 88th Street.
Jackson Heights was a planned community, where the first “garden apartments” were created in buildings constructed around central gardens and green spaces that gave neighbors a place to meet and socialize with one another, created places for children to play, allowing light to come into the apartments and air to flow freely through them. These gardens are private and only residents have access to them. Passing by the buildings, you might not even guess the gardens were there, as they are not generally visible from the street.
Additionally, there are some mid-rise apartment buildings. Some of these are rentals, some are co-ops, and some are condos. There are a few attached row houses that provide housing for one to three families.
As much as Jackson Heights might be full of noise and mix of cultures, it also has a quieter side, where the various cultures mix and mingle and learn about each other against a backdrop of beautiful architecture and a culinary landscape that brings the world to Queens.
