A Rare Blend of Prewar Charm and Modern Style in the Heart of Forest Hills
This beautifully renovated one-bedroom coop offers over 1,000 square feet of living space on the top floor of a classic six-story prewar building. With bright exposure, the home is filled with natural sunlight all day, creating a warm, inviting vibe throughout. The layout is both stylish and functional. A spacious entry foyer with two floor-to-ceiling closets welcomes you in. The large living room features a built-in wall-to-wall bookcase and flows into a bright eat-in kitchen complete with custom cabinetry, a farmhouse apron sink, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and timeless mosaic tile flooring. Prewar details are thoughtfully preserved—arched doorways, original moldings, nine-foot ceilings, and solid oak hardwood floors give the space character and charm. The king-sized bedroom includes three deep closets, while the updated bathroom feels like a spa with timeless subway tiles, a custom enlarged soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed walk-in shower with matte gold finishes, and a quartz-topped vanity.
The Essex is a well-run, financially solid coop with a live-in super, laundry, bike storage, and additional storage space. With a monthly maintenance of $1,040, this home delivers real value in a prime Forest Hills location—just minutes from Austin Street, the LIRR, express subways, shopping, dining, and more. This is that rare find—a move-in ready top-floor home with space, style, and location.
