Just one flight up, this sun-filled apartment features southern exposure, exposed brick, hardwood floors, oversized walk-in closets, an in-unit washer/dryer, dishwasher, and both a windowed kitchen and bathroom — a rare combination of features that’s hard to find at this price point.

The kitchen includes granite countertops, full-size appliances, and ample cabinet space, while the windowed bathroom features a soaking tub and adds extra brightness and ventilation. As you make your way down the hallway, the home offers a sense of privacy and separation between the living and sleeping quarters. The primary bedroom enjoys abundant natural light and features a spacious walk-in closet, while the second bedroom offers flexibility as a children’s room, guest bedroom, or private home office. Sunlight pours into the home throughout the day, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. In addition, 161 West 133rd St also qualifies for special lending rates and programs. Situated next to a community garden, the building offers a peaceful residential setting while remaining close to everything Harlem has to offer. Conveniently located near the 2/3 express trains at 135th Street and the B/C trains at 135th Street, commuting throughout Manhattan is seamless. Nearby bus lines include the M2, M7, and M102. Outdoor spaces like St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park, and Jackie Robinson Park are all within close reach, along with neighborhood favorites including Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, restaurants, cafés, and shopping. Set on historic West 133rd Street, a block known for its deep musical and cultural history, this home offers the perfect mix of warmth, convenience, and value in one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods. There is an ongoing assessment of $937.40/month in place through 2031. The seller is willing to contribute toward the ongoing assessment.
