Property Description
A gracious entry foyer leads to a spacious, sun-filled living room featuring recessed lighting and open street, tree-lined views. Adjacent is a dedicated formal dining area that can effortlessly be converted into a second bedroom, home office, or den. The oversized primary bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed with nightstands and features a large closet.
The fully renovated, windowed kitchen is outfitted with quartz countertops and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, new tile flooring, and new plumbing. The windowed bathroom has also been completely renovated and includes a new standing shower, toilet, vanity, medicine cabinet, walls, plumbing, and tile floors.
The Balfour is a full-service, well-managed six-story co-op offering a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, and new elevators. Residents enjoy a beautifully landscaped, park-like garden with patio seating and umbrellas, three recently renovated laundry rooms with new machines, garage, private storage units, bicycle room, and a package room with BuildingLink. A newly added pet run park further enhances the amenities. Recent building upgrades include a new air-conditioned lobby, ramps, updated hallways, a community room, and a state-of-the-art fitness center with windows, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning. The building also features a resurfaced roof, new boilers, and extensive waterproofing. FIOS, Spectrum, and RCN are available. Ideally located just half a block from Queens Boulevard and the E & F express subway lines, with close proximity to the R & M trains, Q60 bus, and LIRR. Enjoy a short walk to the shops and restaurants along Austin Street and a commute of under 30 minutes to midtown Manhattan.
