1 Kensington Gate

One Kensington Gate is a four-story cooperative building constructed in 1969 that presents a traditional mid-century residential profile with a full-service operation. The property primarily offers one-bedroom and larger multi-bedroom apartment layouts with varied floor plans that include features such as cathedral and high ceilings, formal living/dining arrangements, eat-in and galley kitchens, generous closet space and built-in millwork. Units often showcase finishes like crown molding, natural woodwork, stone or quartz counters, recessed lighting, soaking tubs, and walk-in closets; some residences provide first-floor bedroom options, private terraces or balconies, and wet/dry bars. Common areas emphasize communal leisure and convenience: a landscaped garden and courtyard with barbecue facilities and seating, a lifeguarded heated outdoor pool, a recently refreshed residents’ lounge/social room, fitness/exercise facilities, and outdoor courts for tennis and basketball. The building operates with 24-hour concierge or doorman service, live-in maintenance staff, secured indoor garage parking with attendant, mail and package assistance, elevator access, and backup generator coverage. Laundry facilities are available on-site and in-unit washer/dryer installations have been permitted in many apartments. Situated in the center of Great Neck, the co-op benefits from immediate access to village shopping, dining, parks, and LIRR transit to New York City, while residents may join local park district amenities (pools, courts, waterfront park, ice rink). The community-oriented setting, routine building events and membership options create a suburban-urban lifestyle balancing recreational amenities, security and everyday convenience.
