2536 71st St, East Elmhurst, NY 11370

UNDER CONTRACT -- THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST. Desirable two-family home in the best part of East Elmhurst. This lovely two-story home features two similar 970 square foot, two-bedroom apartments, a full basement with entrances from the front and back, back-yard, and driveway for one car. Built 22 X 44 feet, on a 22 X 100 foot lot, this attached brick row-house has been owned by the same family for 50 years. Needless to say, it has been well-cared for, and is move in ready. Located in a quiet section of East Elmhurst, convenient to the GCP and BQE, it boasts a "very walkable" walk score of 81 -- walk to Home Depot, Auto Zone, Petco, Farm-Country Super-market, and Cannelle Patisserie. It also has an "excellent transit" score of 76, and is less than ten minutes by car to LaGuardia Airport. It can be rented to two separate families, as it is now, and the owner can maintain access to the basement with bath and mechanicals. Or the owner can live on the first floor, with full back-yard and basement access. The garage has been legally enclosed, and has doorways to the first floor apartment and can be a large second bedroom. Well-maintained, this two family dwelling features upgraded electrical service (with two meters) a recently replaced water-heater, and relatively new gas boiler. Each apartment has an efficiency kitchen with dining area, large living room, two bedrooms with closets, and a full bath. This is a highly-sought-after neighborhood, and renting the units in this legal two-family house is straight-forward. Family-friendly, this location is zoned for PS 152, IS 10, and William Cullen Bryant High School, and convenient to numerous private schools including Our Lady of Fatima and Monsignor McClancy High School. Showings are by appointment only please, so as not to disturb the existing tenants more than necessary. (At this time, these tenants have no leases.) For an appointment, please call listing agent Jeff Putterman.
