This bright Jackson Heights co-op has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, spacious living and dining rooms, and a kitchen with plenty of counter and cabinet space.
Located at 34-22 81st Street, the landmarked Chateau building — built in 1923 by architect Andrew J. Thomas — is close to buses along 35th Avenue and Northern Boulevard, a short walk from the 7 train and near countless eateries and other conveniences.
The living room has what looks like a working fireplace, along with huge windows. The bedrooms, only two of which are pictured, are decently sized, and we’re not sure what the bathrooms look like. There are also eight closets throughout the unit.
The obvious setback here is the price of $799,000 with a monthly maintenance of $1,080, which seems quite high for the area. There’s also a minimum 30 percent down payment required. And the kitchen, while large enough for any avid cook (is that door near the stove a pantry?), could use some updating.
What do you think? Is it worth the ask?

The price is only high due to the quality of the building and the lack of amenities. The Berkshire Green co-op in Jackson Heights (my husband and I just bought) is comparable pricing for the same size apartments, but they’re fully renovated and the building has real amenities.
That coop has a lot to offer. Would we be asking if it were worth the ask if it were in Brooklyn at twice the price and twice the distance?
