Luxury living doesn’t necessarily have to come with a hefty price tag — just look at the new Queens affordable housing lottery listing.
Nestled in Astoria, Hearthstone is a modern, chic facade that boasts stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and other enviable features like in-unit washer dryers. (THE DREAM!) You and your neighbors will have plenty of perks at your disposal, including a dog park, fitness center, children’s playroom, library, co-working café, and rooftop access with views of the city skyline. Color us intrigued!
The unit is listed on Housing Connect and is available for household sizes from one to five, and units start at $828. Its eligible income ranges from $33,000 to $181,000, giving applicants plenty of wiggle room. Plus, since there’s so much to do in Astoria, you’ll be pleased to know that entertainment options abound inside and outside of your digs.
Though December is typically a busy season, you do have plenty of time to apply: the lottery closes on January 15th, 2025. And luckily for you, we spoke to the experts about actually winning a housing lottery, so with our tips from the pros, you could be one step closer to a new home.
But if you have your eyes on other areas throughout the city, fear not. Plenty of listings open up throughout the year, and we’ll keep you posted on the latest. Additionally, broker fees across the five boroughs are working towards being shifted to those hiring the brokers (likely the landlord), giving the renter a bit of financial relief, so the hunt won’t feel too strenuous. (Fingers crossed!)
