EXCLUSIVE LISTING OF TERRACE SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY

 A rare gem in the highly sought after neighborhood of Forest Hills Gardens, this exceptional two-family mansion designed by renowned architect Grosvenor Atterbury blends timeless elegance with expansive living space ideal for extended families or savvy investors.


Main Residence

Enter through a grand foyer that immediately sets an elegant tone. A long, graceful hallway leads to a sunken living room anchored by a striking stone fireplace, while classic leaded glass windows bathe the space in natural light. 

The home flows seamlessly into a bright, oversized dining room lined with windows perfect for hosting gatherings. A charming parlor room with adjacent half bath and a well-appointed kitchen that opens into a cozy TV den with direct access to the attached garage, complete the main level. An additional door off the kitchen leads to a spacious driveway accommodating three to four vehicles, offering both ease and flexibility, providing a more private second entrance to the home.

On the second level a spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet and a private full bath. Two additional bedrooms are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a generously sized laundry closet with built-in washer and dryer on this level adds everyday convenience.

The third level offers a large bedroom with an adjoining sitting room and full bath, plus two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom. 


Second Residence 

The second residence provides a more modern aesthetic, beginning with a warm, inviting entryway with a fireplace and a hallway that leads into a spacious living and dining area. The eat-in-kitchen offers direct access to outdoor space that is perfect for entertaining or summer barbecues. A half bath completes the first floor. 

Upstairs is the primary bedroom with a full bath and an adjacent sitting room, along with two additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms.

The lower level features a finished basement complete with a laundry room equipped with a washer and dryer. 


Forest Hills Gardens offers a blend of timeless charm and a spacious suburban feel, with its tree-lined streets, historic architecture, the renowned West Side Tennis Club, and beautifully maintained surrounding gardens. Just moments away, Austin Street provides a vibrant mix of shopping, dining, and local cafés and within a short walking distance is Forest Park designed by Frederick Law Olmstead, who also designed Central Park, in 1896, with its forested woodlands, walking and biking trails, horseback riding and an 18 hole golf course, named Best NYC Golf Course” by Golf Guides USA. Commuting is effortless with the LIRR at Forest Hills Station and access to the E, F, M, and R subway lines, allowing for a quick trip to Mid-town. This sought-after neighborhood seamlessly combines peaceful residential living with a relaxed urban vibe and exceptional accessibility to highways, airports, Long Island and Manhattan.
