144-11 Sanford Ave

A midcentury, six-story cooperative built in 1951, this residential property occupies a tree-lined block in downtown Flushing. The conversion contains primarily one-bedroom layouts with several units offering convertible two-bedroom plans; many residences feature eat-in or galley kitchens, windowed bathrooms, and generous living rooms that accommodate dining areas. Common elements include an elevator, shared laundry facilities, and a planted courtyard that provides outdoor relief from the street. The building supports on-site parking with a waiting list and maintains straightforward pet and occupancy norms typical of established co-op governance. Units show a pattern of recent gut-renovations—modern stone counters, custom cabinetry, stainless appliances and updated tile—while hardwood floors and generous windows preserve midcentury proportions and cross-ventilation. Located about five blocks from the Main Street 7-train station and within a short walk of LIRR access, the property sits amid Flushing’s dense retail, dining, and civic amenities, offering a transit-oriented urban lifestyle with immediate neighborhood services.
