139-15 83rd Ave

A mid-century, seven-story cooperative completed in 1958, this Briarwood residential building offers one- to three-bedroom apartment layouts across a low-rise footprint. The exterior combines brick massing with modest planted common areas and a fenced private playground; some units include small private outdoor terraces under 60 square feet. Interiors favor traditional mid-century proportions with high or cathedral ceilings in selected units, hardwood and parquet floors, renovated kitchens with granite or marble counters and stainless appliances in many apartments, and features such as built-in storage, walk-in closets, recessed lighting and formal dining or eat-in kitchen arrangements. Common areas are practical and family-oriented: a staffed 24-hour doorman and hotel-style lobby, an activity/children’s playroom, two laundry rooms, bike storage, multiple resident storage rooms (fee-based), and on-site mailbox facilities. Resident parking is available indoors on a waitlist and for a fee; building services include BuildingLink management tools and 24-hour security. Pet-friendly policies, sponsor-unit flexibility on board approval for some sales, and the ability to sublet under defined conditions add ownership flexibility. Located in central Briarwood near the E/F subway, local and express buses, major highways and neighborhood shopping, the building supports commuter access to Manhattan and area schools while emphasizing family-oriented amenities and practical urban living.
