Maintenance: $820


Immaculately renovated with the finest finishes and architectural imagination, this rare, top-floor, one-bedroom will have your attention the moment you enter. The welcoming foyer offers an immediate look into the sunlit living space framed by wide windows. You will then be captured by the pristine hardwood floors, laid over a sound-reducing subfloor. Skim coated walls are smooth to the touch and are framed with custom molding. The original floor plan has been reconfigured into a massive open concept living space, bathing in natural light. Windows overlook the building’s private garden, while also enjoying views of open skies as this home towers over neighboring buildings.

No detail was overlooked in creating this editorial-worthy, open concept kitchen offering top-of-the-line appliances, high-end finishes, a true designer’s vision. The island seats plenty and has added storage. The living room has designated dining and lounge areas, while offering plentiful floor space. The corner bedroom offers a view to the garden, as well as massive custom closets. The spa-like bath has been outfitted with the finest finishes in exquisite taste.

Less prominent but worthy details include hard wired cable lines, updated electric, new radiator covers, sturdy curtain rods, a chalk wall in the foyer, closet storage systems, high-end doors, quality window shades, light fixtures, and the sub-layer of flooring for built-in privacy accentuate and complete this package of an ideal turn-key home.

Recently updated with a new interior, new elevators and laundry room, the Monroe was erected in 1948 to the designs of William Hohauser. Centrally located in the Jackson Heights Historic District on a serene tree-lined street. Conveniently located near restaurants, shops, the farmer’s market & Travers Park, and a short distance from the Roosevelt Transit Hub, it offers amenities such as a private garden, bike storage, laundry facilities, a live-in super, and is pet friendly. Subletting permitted with board approval.
