All-brick, detached two-family in prime Bayside/Oakland Gardens location. Set on a 40X100 lot; bldg. size 26X46! A private driveway and a spacious rear yard, this home offers a rare turnkey opportunity. Both apartments have been completely renovated—walls, floors, ceilings, kitchens, baths, lighting, hardware, and trim—everything replaced with quality, modern finishes.
The first floor features five rooms: a living room/dining area, a kitchen, two bedrooms, and a full bath. The second floor features six rooms: a spacious living room, dining room, updated kitchen, three bedrooms, and one full bathroom, plus two half bathrooms (including one in the primary suite).
Additional upgrades include a newer roof (approx. 2 years), a gas hot-water heating system with two zones, and updated windows and doors. Delivered fully vacant and ready for immediate occupancy or investment use. Long-time ownership—over 30 years—is now available to a new buyer seeking a home that needs nothing but move-in. Convenient to top-rated District 26 schools, shopping, and transportation.
