## Property Overview

Price Reduced!
 Imagine residing in a distinguished, freestanding Federalist brick home, a true landmark majestically set atop a hill on a tranquil side street within the coveted Forest Hills Gardens. This house recalls the early years of Forest Hills Gardens when many homes had very large lots. During the depression and over the decades many families chose to, or needed to sell off parts of their land to someone who built a new house on it. Spread over 3 tax lots, this estate retains its spacious 14,144 square feet property. A rarity within Forest Hills Gardens.
Step inside to discover a home of exceptional layout and functionality, designed for gracious living and effortless entertaining. The first floor unfolds with a grand center hall leading to a bright living room boasting three exposures, an expansive dining room ideal for memorable gatherings, and a luminous, south-facing solarium bathed in natural light. The recently renovated, modern eat-in kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and style, while a convenient first-floor bedroom (ideal for a home office) and a full bath add to the practicality. Direct access to the attached two-car garage completes this impressive level, all enhanced by soaring 8'6" ceilings.
 Ascend the elegant, open curving staircase to a spacious landing that introduces the luxurious primary suite. Here, a fully renovated ensuite bath with a two-person shower and a generous walk-in closet await. Two additional bedrooms, each with its own private terrace offering verdant views, a full bath, and a charming nursery with a Juliette balcony (perfect as an office or exercise room) complete the second floor. The expansive rear terrace, a remarkable 350 sq ft, is an outdoor sanctuary, while the side terrace overlooks the lush south lot.
Unlock further potential in the unfinished attic, offering exciting build-out possibilities. The fully finished basement provides even more living space, featuring a large recreation or media room, a potential bedroom, a full bath, a laundry room, and extensive storage. Adding a touch of history, this space once served as a neighborhood speakeasy during Prohibition, complete with its own kitchen and a discreet driveway entrance.
Built in 1925 and cherished by only three families, this exceptional property embodies the enduring appeal of Forest Hills Gardens, a world-class community meticulously planned by the Olmsted Brothers and Grosvenor Atterbury. Enjoy a unique lifestyle that blends suburban tranquility with urban convenience, surrounded by tree-lined streets, private parks, and charming period lampposts, all meticulously maintained by the Forest Hills Gardens Corporation. Excellent public and private schools are nearby, further enhancing the desirability of this remarkable location.
 This is not just a home; it's an unparalleled opportunity to own a significant piece of Forest Hills Gardens history and shape its future. Don't miss your chance to experience the extraordinary."
The lot to the left side of the house covers 4,450 sq feet with 2,225 in buildable square footage. The lot to the right side covers 4,474 sq feet with 2,237 buildable square footage. The property on which the house sits has an additional 574 of buildable square footage.
Annual Forest Hills Gardens Corporation maintenance dues are $5,698.59. Annual property taxes are $26,994.

## Sales Evidence

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable house sales in Forest Hills is $1,614,000, based on 12 sales between December 2022 and July 2026. This home is asking $2,500,000, $886,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,260,000 and $1,959,750.

- **Median closed price**: $1,614,000
- **Middle half**: $1,260,000 – $1,959,750
- **Based on**: 12 house sales in Forest Hills
- **Period**: December 2022 – July 2026

Square footage is recorded for only 3 of these 12 sales (25%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Floor areas are usually recorded for house sales, so this is a thin patch in the records rather than the norm.

Across the 12 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.7% of what it originally asked. 83% of them closed below the original ask.

A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across Forest Hills. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 96.7% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 83% of 12 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 58 days (about 8 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 72 days (about 10 weeks)

Across the 12 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.7% of what it originally asked. 83% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 58 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 12 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 72 days (about 10 weeks), based on the 12 with both dates recorded.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 12 house sales in Forest Hills, December 2022 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 4033110009. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
