New York Room For Rent - 1 Bedroom apartment for a roommate in Jackson Heights, Queens (NY-16093)

Great restaurants, a shopping strip, historic districts with unique garden housing and - perhaps most importantly - a quick and direct train ride to Manhattan, are reasons why you should consider the neighborhood of Jackson Heights in the northwestern section of Queens for your stay in New York. The room for rent is a sleeping alcove located in a one bedroom apartment share, on the 1st floor (considered ground floor by Europeans) of a 6-story building with elevator and security system.

The compact sleeping alcove (living room 2 on floorplan) is furnished with a single bed, a wardrobe and dresser for storage and has two eastern exposed windows overlooking the street. Please note that it is separated from the living room by sliding doors and that the wall between the two rooms does not go all the way to the ceiling, which can result to limited privacy.

The living area (living room 1), kitchen and bathroom are shared with your roommates. The living room offers a comfortable setting to relax and watch TV, with two sofas, a large TV with cable and DVD player. There is also a dining table to enjoy your home cooked meals. The kitchen is separate and fully equipped with all the necessities, including microwave, coffee maker and toaster. The bathroom has a bathtub/shower and the convenience of a window.

This one bedroom apartment is located at 37th Avenue & 87th Street in Jackson Heights, Queens. This neighborhood is home to a diverse population of New Yorkers, resulting in a great variety of restaurant and entertainment options! and with the 7 train just over 3 blocks from the apartment (about 600m), you can be in Midtown Manhattan whenever you need to be! If you take the time to discover your surroundings, you will find:

1. Excellent ethnic dining, from Arunee (Thai) on 79th Street to La Fusta (Argentinian) to the 74th Street thoroughfare lined with Indian and South Asian eateries. 
2. A lively night scene, including Chibcha, a Colombian night spot with live music on the weekends.
3. Convenience: two blocks (about 200m) to the west, there is a C-Town Supermarket, small shops and pharmacies.
4. Lovely architecture: head north past 35th Avenue to see some of the area's most unique buildings, like The Chateau, which looks like an Alpine village in the middle of Queens!
