Listing of the Day: 30-03 83rd Street

This three-bedroom, semi-attached Jackson Heights home listed at $649,000 has some potential. According to the listing it was built in 1935. It appears to have a detached garage in the back and the listing mentions an additional 15-by-20-foot lot on 30th Avenue. The pictures in the listing show a little garden overgrown with vines that looks like it could be a wonderful spot with a little work — maybe that is the additional lot?

There are tiles on the ceiling on the main floor and a drop ceiling upstairs — perhaps there is a little more height to be had under those tiles? We also see what look like original parquet floors in the bedrooms — maybe there is more under all that carpet? It is seven long blocks to the subway, so the house is not exactly convenient to transit, but for someone willing to put in the effort, this could have real possibilities.
