Welcome to 83-03 261st Street — a beautifully expanded Cape nestled on one of Glen Oaks’ most charming, tree-lined blocks. This home combines the space and comfort of Long Island living with the benefit of Queens taxes — truly the best of both worlds. The main level offers 3 well-sized bedrooms and 2 full baths, creating a practical and flexible layout ideal for multi-generational living or a mother-daughter setup. A bright living room, dedicated dining area, and well-maintained kitchen make everyday living feel connected and effortless. Upstairs, discover three additional bedrooms and a full bath. One room makes a perfect home office or study, while another opens to a large private balcony — an ideal place to unwind. A pull-down attic adds convenient storage. Recent updates bring peace of mind: new second-floor flooring, three-zone heating, a new boiler and water heater, and a newer roof. The backyard is an entertainer’s dream — fully fenced and concreted for low maintenance, featuring an in-ground pool and gazebo that create a private, resort-style setting for gatherings or quiet evenings at home. A finished basement with an outside entrance adds even more space and flexibility. All this just one block from Hillside Avenue, close to shops, dining, parks, schools, and transportation. A rare opportunity to enjoy generous space, modern updates, and outdoor living in a location that truly feels like home.
