Description
*SEE VIDEO TOUR*
Welcome to 1642 Cornelia St, a renovated and restored Renaissance Revival style row house in beautiful Ridgewood, Queens.
Built in 1910, standing 20 ft x 55 ft on a 91 ft lot, this elegant home features a buff brick facade with projecting bays, stone sills and lintels, ornate pressed metal cornice with scrolls and swags, original iron fencing and French entry doors.
Configured as a Two Family with apartments on first and second floors and a full height basement with separate entrance from exterior. The apartments feel open and airy with high ceilings and generous natural light.
The First Floor
A flex 2-Bedroom with a formal dining room, spacious living room, generous storage and direct garden access. In the kitchen, the original cast iron porcelain farmhouse sink w/ subway tile backsplash is complemented by a Bertazonni stove that sits on the original penny tile where the coal stove once resided. A Broan hood vent and Fisher & Paykel French refrigerator complete the modern touches. High-end renovations to the Bath include marble hex tile floors with subway tile walls from Nemo Tile, walk-in shower, brushed gold Phylrich fixtures, and over-sized floating vanity with storage. Custom pendant lighting accentuates the allure of each room which includes a FLOS Skygarden Pendant Light in the Bedroom and an Oggetti Cascade Bell Pendant in the Dining Room.
The Garden
A porch accessed from the kitchen features a pergola with a living canopy of wisteria and grapes which provide an enchanting outdoor space perfect for alfresco dining or quiet moments. The garden with raised flower beds of organic soil has sunflowers, herbs, and a fig and cherry tree. The garden can also be accessed directly from Jefferson St which provides the potential for private parking. (Please consult your architect and attorney)
The Second Floor
Flex 3-Bedroom with formal dining room, living room and open kitchen. The bath features the original clawfoot tub upgraded with brushed gold fixtures, hex floor tiles with subway tile walls and a modern vanity.
The Basement
Partially finished with a studio, recreation room, laundry and mechanical room. Accessible from both front and rear of the home's exterior.
Pre-War Details
Original details include a stained glass entry foyer with hex floor tile, hallways with Lincrusta wall covering, newel post and stairs, hardwood parquet and plank flooring throughout with decorative inlay, baseboard moldings, apartment entry doors with cornflower privacy glass and glass knobs, French dining room doors, and cast iron radiators.
Mechanicals, plumbing and electric have been upgraded over the past several years including an oil to gas conversion.
Ridgewood, once called East Williamsburg, is known for its pre-war architectural style of row homes with tree-lined streets, neighborhood shops and a quick and easy commute to Manhattan by L / M subway. Local favorites include L'imprimerie where you can find of the city's best croissants or enjoy a craft beer at one of several local breweries (Evil Twin, Queens Brewery, Bridge and Tunnel), dine on artisanal pizza at Houdini's, or vibe away to the live beats at Nowadays. Ridgewood has something special for everyone.
Tenant occupied with month-to-month lease. 1642 Cornelia St presents an excellent investment or primary use opportunity.

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child goes to this school and I have to say I am extremely happy with the teachers and the principal. I have heard awful things about this school and was nervous to send my child here. The school is great and my son loves it. His teachers are very nice and helpful. Great communication. This school has gotten such a bad reputation. I do not have a bad thing to say about this school. I know a lot of other parents who feel the same as I do. The school is clean. Everyone is nice (principal, security, people who work in the main office, etc)Parent Review2y ago - Joseph F Quinn Intermediate School 77

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI transferred my daughter to this school in March 2025 after a traumatizing set of experiences in a local middle village JHS Charter. The School we left had caused some serious emotional scars, and I was on the hunt for the best JHS for my daughter. I was invited to attend a parent meeting that was being held at IS77 (Tea with the Principal). In that meeting I meet 10 other parents who deeply cared about their school. They were so excited about the coming year and sharing all the success their children had experienced thus far and the plans for state test prep. The principal and the parent coordinator were seated and taking pages and pages of notes because these opinions mattered.There were teacher leaders in the meeting using their free period to listen to these parents. I had never seen such care. When i shared why a parent with no child in the building was there - the parent coordinator got up and called the main office and said, "send me a registration package". I was told not only would my daughter be welcomed with open arms - but they will also ensure her a seat in the honors program the following year, and they will work with me to get her any help (emotionally) she needed. It was a genuine care for a child they never met. JHS is tough years for our kids! Everything is changing - new demands - their whole being is changing - they need understanding and support in all the ways possible and IS77 OVER delivers in that regard. The parent community and family engagement is second to none - The Teachers are true rockstars! and these kids wow me every time with their kindness! I may have to just leave a review for the principal! Ms.P is an outstanding leader and is accessible to her community. I wish I would have taken the time to really get to know this school before I made the decision based on "old views" of this school. This is NOT the 77 you think you know! Ms P and her team will make time to welcome anyone who wants to learn about 77! and as a parent, I will always volunteer to do the same because of how much this school has helped me, help my daughter love school again!Parent Review7mo ago - Ps 239

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe Principal is great, I do not appreciate the lack of respect, unprofessionalism found within the school safety Officers. They do not greet parents when they walk in, they have lots of attitude, are always on their phone, and yell at the children. They are disrespectful and short tempered when asked a question of for assistance. I cannot believe this type of behavior is allowed in the school!!!! Administration needs to re-evaluate the Officers so that they know this type of behavior is unacceptable!!! The teachers seem nice, they communicate and I love the Assistant Principals.Parent Review6y ago
