"A SYMPHONY IN THE GARDENS" The striking and elaborate design of 97 Continental Avenue is a masterful blend of America's earliest styles. The architectural elements illuminated in this home are a blend of Federal-style symmetry with a tasteful touch of Greek, Gothic, and Roman Revival. Designed in 1930 and located on one of The United States' first planned communities, this Fine Estate sits firmly on almost half an acre of land. The wrap-around garden sheathes the home in a beautiful landscape that leads to an attached two-car garage. Its design's integrity and charm have been meticulously looked for, freezing time and honoring the home's historic value. Passing through the main entrance you are welcomed by a beautiful foyer that boasts neoclassical features and an iconic stairwell that stands as the home's backbone and centerpiece. This nine-bedroom, seven-bathroom residence enjoys six fireplaces, a Butler's pantry, grand-living room, formal dining room, a mahogany-lined library, wine cellar, an enclosed sunroom, two levels of living area, and a comparable size lower level. In 2007, Cottage Living Magazine named Forest Hills Gardens the "Best Community" to live in, exposing everyone outside of Queens to one of our boroughs best-kept secrets. With easy access to Manhattan, "The Gardens" are only 15 minutes away from Penn Station via the Long Island Rail Road and a short drive to two of NYC's most essential airports.
