The second floor features an exceptionally spacious primary bedroom and a second generously sized bedroom, both enhanced by high ceilings and large windows that bring in abundant natural light, along with a full bathroom. The third floor opens to a large, versatile space highlighted by a beautiful overhead skylight that fills the upper level with natural light and adds to the home's unique character. , leading to two well proportioned bedrooms. A substantial basement with high ceilings and a full bathroom provides additional flexibility and features two points of access-one from the front of the home and another directly from the rear garden. All of this is ideally positioned in the heart of Forest Hills Gardens, convenient to neighborhood shopping, dining, the Forest Hills LIRR station, and E/F/M/R subway service to Manhattan. The West Side Tennis Club and the Community House, offering recreational programs, activities, and an indoor pool, are also nearby.
