A rare opportunity at Wellesley Gardens — one of Douglaston's premier co-ops known for its charm, convenience, and exceptional upkeep. This beautifully updated 5th-floor 2-bedroom, 1-bath home is just one block from the LIRR, offering an effortless 28-minute commute to Manhattan and unbeatable access to local shops, restaurants, buses, Alley Pond Golf Center, and top-rated PS 98. This beautifully updated apartment features an inviting open layout with gleaming hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and a gracious entry foyer enhanced by floor-to-ceiling custom closets and a sleek built-in display cabinet. The renovated kitchen offers natural-toned cabinetry, granite countertops, a marble floor, stainless-steel appliances, and excellent storage. The spa-inspired marble bathroom offers great storage and a glass-enclosed shower/tub. Both bedrooms are generously sized and newly finished with plush wall-to-wall off-white carpeting. The king-size primary bedroom stands out with an exceptional full-wall closet over three feet deep plus additional built-ins — remarkable storage rarely found in co-ops. Wellesley Gardens is a meticulously maintained, financially strong elevator building with a beautifully renovated lobby and hallways. Amenities include on-site laundry, complimentary bike storage, a newly renovated fitness center ($35/month per apartment), live-in superintendent, video intercom system, and optional storage rental. Residents may also join the Douglas Manor Association ($900 annually) for dock, beach, and mooring rights, or The Douglaston Club for tennis, pickleball, pool, dining, bowling, and community events. Move-in ready, beautifully updated, and ideally located — this is a rare opportunity to own a standout home in one of Douglaston’s most desirable buildings.
