Description

Step into the heart of Hunters Point with this sun-drenched, top-floor studio. Situated at the rear of a charming multi-family building, this "neat as a pin" apartment offers a peaceful retreat just two flights up, away from the hustle and bustle of the street.

The Living Space
The main living area features a striking exposed brick decorative fireplace, adding a touch of rustic industrial character to the modern aesthetic. The layout is intelligently designed to maximize functionality:

Sleeping Nook: A dedicated queen-sized sleeping area provides a cozy sanctuary, complemented by built-in shelving and overhead storage to keep your space organized.

Kitchen & Dining: The efficient kitchen is equipped with honey-oak cabinetry, a gas range, and a breakfast bar/dining nook perfectly positioned under a stylish pendant light.

Bathroom: A clean, white-tiled bathroom featuring a walk-in stall shower and a skylight that floods the room with natural light.

Modern Comforts
Climate Control: Stay comfortable year-round with a wall-mounted electric heat and AC unit.

Lighting: Large windows provide steady North light, perfect for plant lovers or those who work from home.

Policies: Cats are welcome (sorry, no dogs). The building is a walk-up with no on-site laundry, but several laundromats are located just around the corner.

The Neighborhood: At Your Doorstep
Located just off Vernon Boulevard, you are in the most sought-after pocket of Long Island City.

Commuting: Unbeatable access to the 7, G, E, and M trains, plus the NYC Ferry for a scenic commute to Manhattan or Brooklyn.

Green Space: A short stroll leads you to Gantry Plaza State Park and Hunter's Point South Park, offering iconic Manhattan skyline views and waterfront paths.

Culture & Leisure: Visit the stunning, gold-glass Queens Public Library at Hunters Point or catch an exhibition at MoMA PS1.

Dining & Drinks: You’re surrounded by local favorites like Casa Enrique (Michelin-starred Mexican), Sweetleaf Coffee, Bareburger, and the classic Tournesol French bistro.

Lease Details:

Rent Includes: Water.

Tenant Pays: Cooking Gas, Electric (Heat and A/C), and Cable/Internet.

Long Island City sits directly across the East River from Midtown Manhattan, reachable in one stop on the 7 train. LIC has added more than 12,000 residential units since 2015, transforming former industrial blocks into a corridor of glass-tower condos, converted loft co-ops, and rental high-rises along the waterfront. Gantry Plaza State Park, MoMA PS1, and the Hunters Point Library anchor the neighborhood’s cultural identity. Median condo prices run roughly 30-40% below comparable Manhattan waterfront units, drawing both first-time buyers and investors looking for appreciation in one of the city’s highest-growth zip codes.
