“Avatar” actress Zoe Saldana is moving on up, and leaving her modest Kew Gardens two-bedroom co-op in her dust.

Saldana, who grew up in Queens, purchased the apartment at 118-18 Union Turnpike back in 2003. She has now sold it for just $280,000, according to the New York Post.

The apartment in the 20-story building that dates to 1974 had been on the market for $290,000.

The building has a doorman and is close to the subway, but those are really the only perks.
