144-35 Sanford Ave

A mid-century, six-story cooperative walk-up in downtown Flushing built in 1951, this low-rise residential property primarily offers studio apartments with occasional one- and two-bedroom units. The façade and massing reflect pragmatic postwar construction; interiors emphasize efficient layouts with eat-in or combo kitchens, hardwood floors, and practical finishes such as granite counters in renovated units. Common areas include an elevator, supervised entry elements, a laundry room in the basement, and a landscaped private courtyard/garden. Building services are modest: living superintendent, on-site laundry, and shared utilities included in some maintenance packages. Parking is available but managed via a waiting list; a security camera system is noted in listings. Typical unit footprints are compact (studios around the mid‑400s square feet), bright with southern and eastern exposures on corner units, and many apartments have windows in kitchens and baths. The location places the building within easy walking distance of Main Street Flushing, multiple bus lines (Q12, Q15, Q20/Q26), LIRR access and the 7 train, plus abundant retail, dining, and neighborhood services. Maintenance fees advertised often include heat and hot water, contributing to predictable monthly housing costs for residents.
