Description
Forest Hills Colonial with a Rare Sunlit Extension Wrapped in Windows This beautifully maintained detached Colonial sits gracefully on a 30x100 lot, blending timeless Forest Hills charm with warmth and natural light. Built in 1930 and spanning about 1,861 square feet, the home faces south with eastern exposure, so sunlight pours through every window from morning to afternoon. A rare legal extension creates a bright, sunroom like retreat that feels welcoming year-round - the perfect spot to relax, read, or entertain. Step inside to a welcoming entry foyer that leads to a generous living room centered around a mid-century fireplace. The formal dining room features decorative ceiling beams that add subtle architectural flair, while the open eat-in kitchen offers plenty of storage and flows seamlessly into the sunny extension where daily living feels effortless and connected. Upstairs, you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. The primary bedroom opens onto a large private patio, a retreat for morning coffee or quiet evening moments. A finished attic offers flexible space for a home office, creative studio, or walk in closet, while the finished basement includes a family room, full bath, and laundry area, adding even more versatility. Outside, the backyard is perfect for gardening, grilling, or simply enjoying a slow Sunday. A private driveway and two-car garage complete the picture. Set in one of Forest Hills’ most desirable neighborhoods, this home offers a peaceful, tree-lined lifestyle with city convenience just moments away. The subway, LIRR, and express buses are nearby, and Metropolitan Avenue’s cafes, markets, and restaurants are just down the street. Forest Park’s nature trails, tennis courts, and dog park are close enough to feel like an extension of your backyard. Zoned for the highly regarded PS 144 and within a short stroll to Austin Street’s vibrant shops and dining - this home is truly where timeless charm meets everyday ease.
