Welcome to 35-24 78th Street, Apartment B14 on a tree-lined street in the heart of the historic district of Jackson Heights . This is your chance to purchase a 1200 SF home on 5 subway lines for way below market value! Bring your architect to restore this prewar and create your ideal 2-3 bedroom with 1.5 bath home at the elegant Berkeley Co-op.
This mezzanine level corner unit boasts nine new windows and three exposures. The apartment was originally a two bedroom home and was converted to a doctor's office. Original prewar details remain including art deco arches, crown moldings, and 9 foot ceilings.

Designed by the New York Architect Philip Birnbaum in 1938, 35-24 78th Street, was the last of the 3 Berkeley buildings to be built. Today the 3 buildings, surrounding a stunning interior garden, are tended to by residents on a volunteer basis. Pets are welcome at the Berkeley and allowed in a designated area of the garden. Each building has laundry facilities, storage and bike rooms. Residents enjoy a vibrant community including the Sunday Green market and recently renovated Travis Park. One block away is the longest open street to pedestrians in NYC, stretching 26 blocks and 1.3 miles. Local favorites include: 77 Espresso, Lemon Farm, Lety Bakery & Cafe, Table Wine, Stand Alone Cheese and the Queensboro Restaurant. The Co-op is conveniently located near the 74th Street/Broadway station with access to five subway lines: E, F, M, R, and 7. Showings by appointment only.
