About this home
This rare convertible two-bedroom offers scale, light, and craftsmanship in one of the neighborhood's most sought-after cooperatives-an opportunity not to be missed. Welcome to Carlton House, a remarkable cooperative embracing late art deco and early mid-century modern styles, in the heart of the Jackson Heights Historic District. This elevated first-floor corner residence spans approximately 921 square feet and is bathed in southern, eastern, and western light, offering open views of the neighborhood's iconic English garden homes. The layout is exceptional-every inch of space is maximized with no wasted hallways or awkward corners. A dedicated dining area flows seamlessly into an oversized living room, while French doors lead to a versatile second room with recessed lighting -- perfect as an additional bedroom, home office, studio, library, or den. The windowed kitchen is a true centerpiece-renovated with sleek quartz countertops, abundant shaker cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. With its U-shape, generous counter space, and smart storage, it comfortably accommodates two home chefs at once, for easier family meals and entertaining. The bathroom is equally refined with marble-style tiles, a glass-enclosed tub, and modern fixtures. Extensive custom millwork elevates the home throughout: intricate 7-inch baseboards, skim-coated walls, coved ceilings, French doors with antique glass knobs, and restored radiator covers-all blending timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. The king-sized primary bedroom is a serene retreat with multiple windows and a deep closet. In total, five large closets provide abundant storage rarely found in homes of this period. Carlton House residents enjoy premium amenities: a part-time doorman, fitness center, bike room, recently renovated laundry facilities, and an underground garage parking (with a short waitlist) -- a rare find in the neighborhood. A private landscaped sitting garden, a haven of peace, stretches the length of the building's backyard. Just outside, discover tree-lined blocks of historic architecture, Paseo and Travers Parks, the lively Sunday Greenmarket, and an array of acclaimed restaurants that define Jackson Heights living. Multiple subway lines, minutes away, allow for easy access to all of New York City.
