Talbot Apartments

Talbot Apartments is a six-story prewar cooperative built in 1933 in Kew Gardens, NY, composed predominantly of one-bedroom and junior one-bedroom units. The exterior presents the modest masonry scale typical of 1930s neighborhood apartment houses; interiors combine original prewar details—high and cathedral ceilings, picture-frame moldings, hardwood floors—with modern renovations such as quartz/granite counters and updated kitchens. Residences often include eat-in kitchens, dens or bonus home-office alcoves, windowed bathrooms, and practical pantry space. Common areas and services include an elevator, on-site laundry, storage rooms, and a live-in superintendent. The building’s management permits immediate subletting in many sponsor units, and some apartments are sold with no board approval, supporting investor use. Parking is street-based; pet policies are restrictive in several listings. Located on a tree-lined block, Talbot sits within walking distance of the Kew Gardens LIRR and the Kew Gardens–Union Turnpike subway (E/F), plus nearby shops, restaurants, and Forest Park, offering a balance of transit accessibility and neighborhood character.
