About this home
Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath Colonial set on a prominent corner lot in the heart of Rochdale; a home that merges timeless charm, modern comfort, and the rare advantage of a legal basement apartment for multi-generational living or additional income.
From the curb, the home stands proud. The corner exposure enhances natural light, airflow, and privacy, while mature landscaping and classic Colonial lines create a warm, welcoming presence. This is a property that shows its care before you ever step inside.
Enter the main level and feel the character immediately. Original hardwood floors stretch across the first floor, bringing warmth, elegance, and history to the home. The sunlit living room offers a serene space for gathering and unwinding, with large windows that brighten the entire level. The adjoining formal dining room provides a natural transition between living and entertaining, making it ideal for weeknight dinners or holiday hosting. The kitchen is efficiently designed with ample cabinetry, clean surfaces, and the comfortable flow that supports busy household life.
Upstairs, you’ll find three versatile, well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering privacy, calm, and adaptability for sleep, work, or creativity. A well-maintained bathroom completes the upper level with simplicity and functionality.
The standout feature of the property is the legal basement apartment, accessible through its own private entrance. This fully compliant unit elevates the home into a strategic asset; perfect for rental income, extended accommodations, or a private guest suite. Whether you’re building wealth or supporting loved ones, the flexibility here is unmatched.
Out back, a true sanctuary awaits. The pavered backyard, complete with a covered area, provides an outdoor living experience that feels both stylish and low-maintenance. Host gatherings, enjoy summer evenings, or relax in your private shaded retreat. The layout makes year-round enjoyment effortless. Completing the outdoor offering is the rare 1.5-car garage, providing secure parking, storage, or a workshop space which is an invaluable bonus in Queens.
Location remains one of Rochdale’s strongest selling points. You’re minutes from Jamaica Center, the LIRR, major subway lines, local bus routes, neighborhood amenities, and swift access to JFK Airport. Whether commuting, traveling, or exploring the city, this address positions you at the crossroads of convenience and connection.
In a market where buyers crave charm, functionality, income potential, and community, this Colonial delivers on every front. Structurally sound, and rich with opportunity, it invites its next owner to move in with confidence and imagine a vibrant future within its walls.
This is more than a residence, it’s a cornerstone for stability, possibility, and generational growth. A rare offering on a desirable corner lot awaits. Schedule your private tour and experience the lifestyle Rochdale residents cherish.
