35-36 79 Street #53, Jackson Heights, NY 11372

There is just one word to describe this apartment: Stunning. Perched on the fifth (and top) floor, this sun-filled four-room apartment has three exposures: west, south and north. And it is quiet, with all nine windows facing only Hampton Court’s lush interior garden. It has been totally and, equally important, tastefully renovated from top to bottom. From the entry you enter the formal dining room, with two south-facing windows. Behind the dining room is the gorgeous modern galley kitchen with an LG stove, refrigerator, washer and dryer, and a Bosch dishwasher. Then beyond the dining room is the living room, with windows facing west and south. Down the hall is the spacious bedroom, with two exposures, and the bathroom, which has also been fully renovated (including a radiant heated floor). The apartment retains great prewar details, including 9’ ceilings, perfect plaster walls and ceilings, dark-stained oak-strip floors, and moldings. This is a walkup building.

Hampton Court was designed in 1921 by George H. Wells, and its eleven buildings (each a separate cooperative) surround one of the loveliest internal gardens in the Jackson Heights Historic District. This building is well maintained and has laundry facilities and (free) storage bins in the basement. The monthly maintenance remains a reasonable $559. And for 2025, an assessment equal to the monthly maintenance was implemented to build reserves. The cooperative requires 25% down. Subletting is not allowed, nor are dogs. Centrally located in the Jackson Heights Historic District, this building is close to restaurants, shopping, our weekly Greenmarket, and but a handful of blocks to the 74th Street/Roosevelt Avenue train and bus station.
