Property Description for 35-24 78th Street, B-56

Situated within one of Jackson Heights' most admired prewar cooperatives, this oversized studio at The Berkeley offers a scale and versatility rarely found in a home of its kind. Thoughtfully proportioned and filled with natural light, it presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy today while offering meaningful potential for tomorrow. A gracious entry foyer creates a true sense of arrival, with ample space for furnishings, artwork, or a welcoming gallery style entrance. Beyond, a dedicated dressing area is complemented by two substantial closets, including a walk in. Subject to board approval, this dressing room and walk in closet offer the intriguing possibility of being reimagined into an additional room, creating even greater flexibility for the future. The separate windowed kitchen is bright and functional with excellent storage. Adjacent to the kitchen, a raised alcove introduces another layer of versatility. Whether envisioned as a dining room, library, home office, or sleeping area, it also presents the opportunity to expand the kitchen into a more generous culinary space with board approval. The main living room is the home's defining feature. Three oversized bay windows invite eastern light throughout the day, highlighting the apartment's classic prewar proportions while offering abundant space for distinct living and dining areas without compromise. The windowed bathroom remains true to the building's architectural heritage, finished with original black and white tile that reflects the enduring character of the era. The Berkeley has long been regarded as one of Jackson Heights' most distinguished prewar cooperatives. Its elegant lobby, beautifully maintained private courtyard, and attentive stewardship create an atmosphere that feels both welcoming and timeless. Residents enjoy a live in superintendent, laundry facilities, private storage, bicycle storage, pet friendly policies, and limited subletting after five years of ownership. Perfectly positioned within the Jackson Heights Historic District, the building is moments from Paseo Park, Travers Park, and the renowned Sunday Greenmarket. An exceptional collection of independent cafés, acclaimed restaurants, and neighborhood shops surrounds the property, while the E, F, M, R, and 7 subway lines are approximately a seven minute walk away, placing Midtown Manhattan within easy reach. This is more than an oversized studio. It is a residence defined by volume, natural light, architectural integrity, and uncommon potential, qualities that become increasingly rare in New York's most enduring neighborhoods.

Jackson Heights | Queens

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.
