This is a rare opportunity to create a magnificent 2200 SF residence at the Berkeley Co-op on a tree-lined street in the historic district of Jackson Heights. Bring your Architect with the idea of combining a 1,000 square foot one bedroom apartment with a former 1,200 square foot two bedroom into an awesome three to four bedroom, two bath home with four exposures.Enter the one bedroom prewar apartment into a large foyer. Notice the art deco arches, bookcases, crown moldings and high ceilings leading into the rest of the great room. One step up is a dining area and galley kitchen. Consider opening the kitchen onto the living area and adding an island. Next to the dining area is a foyer leading to the primary en suite. There is a dressing room with three closets and a fabulous windowed bathroom with a soaking tub and shower stall. The enormous bedroom has two exposures and a small alcove with a decorative block window.Leaving the one bedroom, enter the apartment next door. The apartment was originally a two bedroom, converted to a doctor's office. Upon renovation, the unit may be converted back to residential status. The right wall may be opened onto the one bedroom creating an even larger great room. There is plenty of room for three sizeable bedrooms with windows and closets in addition to a study or guest room. Pets are welcome!The elegant Berkeley Co-op consists of three buildings built in 1937 and 1938. A stunning courtyard garden is tended to by residents on a volunteer basis. Each building has laundry facilities, storage (wait list) and bike rooms. There is currently a new window assessment of $211 monthly. Residents enjoy the Sunday Green market and recently renovated Travis Park within 2 blocks. Local favorites include: 77 Espresso, Lemon Farm, Lety's Bakery & Cafe, Table Wine, Stand Alone Cheese and the Queensboro Restaurant. The subway station hub has 5 subway lines: E/F/M/R/7.
