34-40 82nd Street 5H is a spacious, light-filled two-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Stephen Hall, a well-regarded prewar cooperative in the heart of the Jackson Heights Historic District.
A thoughtful renovation complements the apartment's original architectural details, including hardwood floors, high ceilings with crown molding, arched doorways, and large windows that bring in excellent natural light. The layout includes an entrance foyer, seven closets, front-facing windows, and a windowed eat-in kitchen. The renovation included soundproofing of the entrance, living room, and dining room walls.
The oversized living room offers generous space for both seating and a home office. Just beyond, the formal dining room connects to the kitchen through a large pass-through, creating an open and practical flow. The renovated kitchen features Italian wood-look porcelain flooring, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and a spacious pantry. A farmhouse sink and stainless steel appliances - including a dishwasher and wine refrigerator - add both style and functionality, while a comfortable dining nook completes this generously sized room.
The soundproofed primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, with custom built-in storage surrounding space for a king-sized bed, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom with a shower. A wall-to-wall marble vanity provides abundant counter space for toiletries and everyday essentials.
The spacious second bedroom features a built-in full wall of closets plus two additional closets and can easily accommodate either two twin beds or a queen/king sized bed. Just outside the bedroom is a spacious, windowed bathroom featuring a soaking tub and a marble-topped vanity with generous counter space.
Built in 1936, Stephen Hall is a well-maintained six-story elevator cooperative. Amenities include a live-in superintendent, laundry room, bike storage, and additional storage (currently waitlisted). Subletting is permitted with board approval. Pets are welcome, including dogs under 25 pounds, subject to board approval.
The building is located one and a half blocks from the 7 train at 82nd Street, with easy access to the E, F, M, and R lines as well as multiple bus routes at 74th and Roosevelt. A parking garage is located directly across the street. Residents enjoy easy access to many of Jackson Heights' most popular amenities, including Travers Park, Paseo Park, the shops and services along 37th Avenue, a wide variety of restaurants, and the neighborhood's beloved year-round Sunday Greenmarket.
