Priced under $300,000, this spacious approx. 800 sq ft 1-bedroom co-op brings the scale and character you only get in a pre-war Elmhurst building — without the pre-war trade-offs. Enter through the building's gated entrance and historic lobby, then step into a home defined by soaring 10-foot ceilings, a proper entrance foyer, and two generous entry closets. The layout actually lives large: a spacious living room with room to entertain, a separate dining area next to the kitchen, and a primary bedroom that comfortably fits a king-size bed, with a walk-in closet for storage most 1-bedrooms in this price range simply don't have. The tiled bathroom and well-kept interiors complete a home that is move-in ready while still offering a new owner room to make it their own. 92-05 Whitney Avenue is a 95-unit, 6-story elevator co-op built in 1939. Residents enjoy on-site laundry, a 24-hour / live-in superintendent, a peaceful outdoor garden area, and a pet-friendly policy. Maintenance includes heat and water. Location is the other half of the value. Roosevelt Avenue and the 7 train at 90th St–Elmhurst Ave are just about two blocks away — a point other listings in this building lead with — putting Midtown, Flushing, and LaGuardia within easy reach. Queens Center Mall, supermarkets, restaurants, and the dining along Roosevelt Ave and Broadway are all close by. Subletting is permitted after 2 years of ownership with board approval, and dogs are welcome in the building. Buyer DTI must be below 33%. A true first-home, downsize, or hold-and-sublet-later opportunity in one of Queens' most connected neighborhoods. Come see the space and the ceilings in person — photos don't do the volume justice.
