High above the treetops in Sunnyside, this sixth-floor studio in a well-maintained elevator building has been freshly painted and thoughtfully prepared for its next chapter. Western exposure floods the space with sunlight throughout the day; from soft dawns to golden sunsets, the Manhattan skyline stretches out across the horizon. While the windows frame Manhattan in all its energy, the space itself keeps its own quiet rhythm.

The living area is anchored by a custom-built shelving system with an industrial edge. Open wood shelves frame a center niche designed for a media setup, while a built-in desk tucks neatly to the side. Two closets - one double door in the living space and another at the entry - provide great storage space.

In the kitchen, stainless steel appliances include a GE gas range and a Blomberg refrigerator. The bathroom, with its full tub, reflects the building’s mid-century character: white ceramic wall tiles, original built-in niches for soap and toothbrushes, and even a tilt-out laundry hamper, all tied together with mosaic tile floors in a geometric pattern that never goes out of style. Hardwood floors, central heat, and a Friedrich through-wall air conditioner complete the home.

The building itself is well cared for, offering an elevator, recently renovated laundry room, a shaded outdoor green space for residents, and a live-in super. Monthly maintenance covers heat, hot and cold water, cooking gas, and sewer. An assessment of $138.49 runs through October 2025. The co-op requires a 20% minimum down payment, allows cats with board approval, has no flip tax, and does not permit subletting.

Outside, Sunnyside is alive with options: cafés, bistros, and local institutions like Kasbah Café, de Mole, Bistro Punta Sal, Ida’s Nearabout, and the year-round Greenmarket. Cultural landmarks such as Thalia Spanish Theatre and City Ice Pavilion are nearby, and the 7 train at Lowery St-40th St Station puts Manhattan just minutes away.

Sun-soaked and welcoming, Unit 6D is the ideal setting to start your story in one of Queens’ most beloved communities.
