Listing Notes
Step into timeless elegance with this charming one-bedroom apartment at The Berkeley, one of Jackson Heights' most coveted co-op buildings. Located on a high floor, this 5th floor unit blends classic details with modern functionality, offering a warm and inviting retreat in the heart of the historic district. You'll immediately be charmed by all the pre-war details: high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and oversized windows that look out to the shared common garden. The spacious sunken living room and dining platform provide the perfect backdrop for entertaining or relaxing. The thoughtfully updated eat-in kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and a layout that makes cooking a delight. The well-proportioned bedroom, with plenty of room for a king sized bed, offers a peaceful haven with ample closet space. The Berkeley itself is a standout cooperative, offering meticulously maintained gardens, a live-in superintendent, laundry facilities, and secure bike storage. Pet friendly and limited subletting is allowed. Located on a tree-lined block that is centrally located in the Jackson Heights Historic District, you'll be steps away from the neighborhood's vibrant food scene, charming shops, and the weekly Greenmarket. Plus, with easy access to the E, F, M, R, and 7 trains, commuting to Manhattan or exploring Queens is a breeze.

Property Read
The property is priced above the nearby median per square foot, so condition, building quality, and exact location need to justify the higher ask.
Price history is still limited; review again as more market activity becomes available.
