Spacious JR4 apartment in the sought-after Balfour Building, one of Forest Hills’ premier full-service co-ops. This unit offers a flexible layout with great potential—ideal for buyers looking to customize and renovate to their own taste.
Enter through a large foyer into a bright, oversized living room with charming street and tree-lined views. Off the living area is a designated dining space, which can easily be converted to a second bedroom, home office, or den. The primary bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed with side tables and features a generous walk-in closet.
The windowed kitchen and bathroom remain in original condition and are ready for a full renovation, offering a blank canvas for your design vision. Original hardwood floors are throughout and can be beautifully restored. The unit features four spacious closets, including one walk-in, providing ample storage.
The Balfour is a well-managed 6-story elevator co-op offering 24-hour doorman service, live-in superintendent, and recently upgraded amenities. These include three renovated laundry rooms, an on-site garage, private storage units, bicycle room, and a package room with BuildingLink. Residents enjoy a beautifully landscaped garden with seating areas and a newly added pet run. The building also features a new lobby with air conditioning, updated hallways, ramps, and a fitness center with Wi-Fi and AC. Recent capital improvements include a resurfaced roof, new boilers, waterproofing, and new energy-efficient windows.
Unbeatable location: just half a block from Queens Boulevard and the E & F express subway lines, and close to R, M, Q60 bus, and LIRR. Enjoy all the shopping, dining, and entertainment Austin Street has to offer—less than 30 minutes from Manhattan.
