Forest Hills Gardens Real Estate: Rent, Sell, Manage & Invest
Forest Hills Gardens is a landmark 1909 planned garden community of Tudor homes and winding, tree-lined streets — one of the most exclusive enclaves in New York City, yet minutes from Manhattan by LIRR. NY Online Realty helps you rent, sell, manage, or invest here.
Living in Forest Hills Gardens
Forest Hills Gardens is a meticulously planned garden community laid out in 1909 by Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. and architect Grosvenor Atterbury, and it remains one of the most exclusive residential enclaves in New York City. Winding, tree-canopied streets, Tudor and English-cottage architecture and the picturesque Station Square give it the feel of an English village dropped into central Queens.
The privately maintained community is made up largely of stately single-family homes and a handful of distinguished apartment buildings, with prices among the highest in the borough. Despite the secluded atmosphere, transit is excellent: the LIRR Forest Hills station sits at Station Square, about 15–20 minutes to Manhattan, and the E/F/M/R subway at 71st Avenue is a short walk away.
The Forest Hills Gardens market, in plain terms
Forest Hills Gardens is a rarefied, low-turnover market where architecture, exclusivity and history sustain premium values. Inventory is scarce and prices sit among the highest in the borough, so homes that do come available attract serious, qualified buyers.
