35-51 85th Street, 9-M

Are you looking for a home of your own? This one is bright, charming and offers a panoramic, quintessential Queens view of the rooftops of Jackson Heights’ historic English houses and the 7 train rolling by in the distance. 9M is a haven above the fray - a top floor apartment with a private entrance and original finishes that have been well maintained. This lovely home is move-in ready, so you can keep the novel fifties feel or enjoy it while renovating over time. You enter through a small private vestibule, which opens to a dining area and a separate kitchen with space for a small table. Beyond is the light flooded living room, which leads to a twenty-foot terrace with unobstructed, southeast facing views. Here you will find more than enough room to create your own additional, three-season outdoor living environment. The original bathroom has a big bathtub and a shower that gets excellent water pressure. The bedroom’s large windows overlook the terrace, sharing the same great views. There are three closets: a large closet in the bedroom, a medium sized closet in the dining room, and a linen closet in the hallway near the bathroom.  Roosevelt Terrace is the best of both worlds: the affordability of a co-op with hassle-free living in the heart of Jackson Heights. Beautifully maintained and expertly managed, you can have the peace of mind of living in a financially-sound complex with great amenities like on-site laundry, storage, parking, a resident playground, 24-hour security, and a community room. The low maintenance of $671.95 includes all utilities. There is parking available in the two lots and two garages, with incredibly low fees ($68 to $100 per month). A storage unit is $10 per month. There is also a live-in super, porters, and on-site management. Pets are welcome with board approval. This complex is 100% owner-occupied, which means no subletting ever.   Jackson Heights is one of New York City’s most special neighborhoods: conveniently located along the E, F, M, R and 7 trains, with incredible food, gorgeous architecture, unparalleled cultural diversity, and a community characterized by its friendliness. It also affords easy access to both airports with LaGuardia (5) and JKF (20) minutes away. Just a block from this apartment is the city’s most famous open street; 34th Avenue/Paseo Park is a vibrant spot to be outside, exercise, see friends or walk your dog. On Sundays year round, the Jackson Heights Greenmarket near Travers Park, is a wonderful place to pick up fresh produce and get local gourmet food. Queens is the future and Jackson Heights is a great place to be!
