Property Description
Set within one of the most admired architectural groupings in historic Forest Hills Gardens, 52 Slocum Crescent is a rarely available four-bedroom townhouse offering timeless architectural character, impressive room proportions, a private rear garden, and an exceptional opportunity to create a truly special home. Designed in the distinctive architectural tradition associated with Grosvenor Atterbury, the residence is surrounded by mature trees and beautifully maintained homes, creating a peaceful, almost country-like setting in the heart of Forest Hills. Owned by the same Owners for many decades, the home is ready for its next chapter and offers tremendous potential for renovation and personalization while preserving the character and architectural details that make homes in Forest Hills Gardens so distinctive. The approximately 1,765-square-foot interior begins with a spacious living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, and a large kitchen offering space for a breakfast area, a generous pantry, and direct access to the rear garden. The second floor features an exceptionally spacious primary bedroom and a second generously sized bedroom, both enhanced by high ceilings and large windows that bring in abundant natural light, along with a full bathroom. The third floor opens to a large, versatile space highlighted by a beautiful overhead skylight that fills the upper level with natural light and adds to the home's unique character. , leading to two well proportioned bedrooms. A substantial basement with high ceilings and a full bathroom provides additional flexibility and features two points of access—one from the front of the home and another directly from the rear garden. All of this is ideally positioned in the heart of Forest Hills Gardens, convenient to neighborhood shopping, dining, the Forest Hills LIRR station, and E/F/M/R subway service to Manhattan. The West Side Tennis Club and the Community House, offering recreational programs, activities, and an indoor pool, are also nearby.
