Prewar character meets contemporary style in this expansive two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence featuring an exceptional layout and move-in ready interiors in a well-heeled Jackson Heights cooperative. Inside this spacious and quiet top-floor home, the bright and airy ambiance is amplified by tall ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors and windows featuring western, eastern and northern exposures. Perfect for relaxing, entertaining, and working from home, the wonderfully flexible floor plan begins with a gracious foyer flanked by two walk-in closets. Ahead, a large dining area flows to a windowed kitchen with excellent cabinet space, granite countertops, and tiled backsplashes. Stainless steel appliances, including a gas range and dishwasher, make cooking and cleaning a breeze. From the dining area, you're invited into an expansive gallery and living room that stretches over 29 feet long, providing plenty of room for comfortable seating and home office areas alongside large western garden-facing windows, a graceful archway, handsome millwork, and inset shelving. Private quarters are tucked down a separate hallway for optimal peace and privacy. In the primary bedroom, you'll find western and northern exposures, king-size proportions and two roomy closets. The secondary bedroom is nicely sized, also with two exposures. The well-appointed windowed bathroom features black-and-white tile, a tub/shower, and a separate cabinet shower. Built in 1939, the Sherwood is a handsome, well-maintained brick co-op where residents enjoy live-in superintendent service, a beautiful shared garden with ample seating, laundry, a gym, and a playroom with low monthly maintenance. Storage and bike racks are available at an additional fee (currently waitlisted). Subletting after two years and up to 80% financing are permitted with board approval. No flip tax and no current assessments. Sorry, no dogs. From this quaint tree-lined location alongside the Jackson Heights Historic District, you’re just two blocks from renovated Travers Park, featuring a playground, sports courts, and a year-round greenmarket. Shopping services, and dining venues fill the neighborhood, including a wealth of restaurants offering a range of international cuisines. Transportation is effortless with 7, E, R and F/M trains, excellent bus service, the BQE, and LaGuardia Airport all nearby.
