Chatwick Gardens is a six-story, 1929 Tudor-style cooperative comprised of 15 residences set within meticulously landscaped communal gardens. The masonry façade, steeply pitched rooflines and period detailing reflect its pre-war character; interiors combine original proportions — high and cathedral ceilings, formal entry foyers, and substantial windows — with renovated finishes in many units such as hardwood floors, granite or marble counters, and modern stainless appliances. Common areas support everyday living: an elevator, central laundry with updated machines, secure bike storage, basement storage, building garden and private outdoor spaces for some homes; a full-time live-in superintendent and building-wide security cameras manage operations. Unit mix skews toward one- and two-bedroom layouts, several with eat-in kitchens, pass-throughs to living rooms, and abundant closet space including walk-in closets. Parking is not central to the building but some listings mention ownership of a detached garage. The co-op permits pets and is integrated into Forest Hills’ village-like setting — steps from Austin Street retail and dining corridors, multiple subway lines and the LIRR, West Side Tennis Club and Forest Hills Stadium — offering a tranquil, residential lifestyle with strong transit access and a neighborhood school zone (PS 144).
