Welcome to the Carlton House, a beautifully maintained prewar cooperative nestled in the heart of the Jackson Heights Historic District.
This sunny two-bedroom, one-bath home sits on the top floor with open eastern and southern exposures over the neighborhood's landmarked English garden homes. Hardwood floors run throughout, radiators provide heat, and window air conditioning units keep things comfortable in the warmer months.
A large foyer welcomes you in, anchored by a decorative chandelier and flanked by two closets. A Comelit video intercom connects over WiFi and works with Alexa and Google Home for easy building access.
From the foyer, the living room opens up with a picture window framing long views of the garden homes below, plus a deep sill perfect for plants to soak up the sun — and plenty of room to configure the furniture layout to your taste. A wrought-iron railing adds architectural character on the way to the dining area, which has its own ceiling fan and light fixture.
The windowed, galley-style kitchen retains its original charm, with a gas range, deep basin sink, white cabinetry, and track lighting overhead. There's space beside the refrigerator for a small table or added counter space — a great opportunity to put your own stamp on it.
The primary bedroom easily fits a king-sized bed and is filled with light from three windows, with two closets and an ornate ceiling fan overhead. The second bedroom is generously sized as well, with two windows and a closet.
Between the two bedrooms, a hallway with room for a console table and mirror leads to the windowed bathroom, finished in classic black-and-white tile with a soaking tub and a separate stall shower.
Building amenities further enhance the appeal, offering a part-time doorman, a well-equipped gym, a private garden, laundry facilities, and a garage with a short waiting list. Located just steps from tree-lined streets, Paseo and Travers parks, a vibrant Sunday green market, and a thriving culinary scene featuring Zagat-rated restaurants, this residence offers the best of Jackson Heights living. This is your chance to create the New York City home of your dreams.
