Welcome to a four-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment at the Towers, the largest and finest of all the landmarked garden apartment complexes located in the Jackson Heights Historic District. The spacious entry foyer opens to the 15' by 20' living room with a classic mantle that surrounds the wood-burning fireplace. Adjacent to the living room is the large formal dining room, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The dining room provides direct access to the service hall with a renovated butler's pantry that matches the kitchen's cabinetry. Off of the service hall is the fourth bedroom (originally a maid's room), with a closet and also a room that was once the third bathroom, and more recently used as laundry room. This space could easily return to serving as the apartment's third bathroom. The spectacular kitchen was renovated only two years ago. There are custom StarMark maple cabinets with tasteful quartz countertops (both also in the butler's pantry). You will find a Wolf cooktop and Wolf ovens (conventional plus a combined convection & microwave), Bosch dishwasher, and JennAir refrigerator. The apartment is wired with Verizon Fios. From the foyer you can access the central hall, which leads you to three more bedrooms and two full baths. The two largest bedrooms, each with two exposures, face the lush interior garden: both peaceful and green. The primary bedroom is huge, measuring 14'x16', with its own renovated full bath. The second bedroom is spacious, and the third bedroom has direct access to the apartment's main bath (also renovated). The proportions at the Towers are generous, and buildings of this quality are no longer being built. This apartment has 9' ceilings, plaster walls, moldings and oak floors - herringbone parquet in the living room, dining room and entry foyer. With just two apartments per floor and built as a fireproof building with cement between each floor, this unit is both private and quiet. Located on the second floor, the apartment has four exposures, facing both 80th Street (west) and the lavish interior garden (east), and looks onto leafy green trees on every side. Best of all, the windows are Landmarks-approved replacements manufactured by Pella. With the apartment comes the use of a private storage unit in the basement. The Towers was designed by Andrew J. Thomas in 1924, and its eight buildings surround a beautiful formal garden (designed by Noel Chamberlain) with two fountains and a baldacchino. It is also the only garden apartment complex with its very own children's garden/play area at the northern end. This cooperative requires 10% down, is very well maintained, has on-site management, and each building has its own laundry facilities. The Towers is pet friendly; however, subletting is not allowed. Centrally located in the Jackson Heights Historic District, this building is close to restaurants, shopping, the 34th Avenue "Open Street," and our weekly Greenmarket that is open year-round. And it is just two blocks from the recently expanded and renovated Travers Park. Please call Daniel Karatzas, the listing agent, for an appointment.
