Description

This is one of the best deals on the West side! Amazing price for a 2 Bedroom in Hamilton Heights with low maintenance of just $635/month. This second floor, prewar apartment has a large living/dining room, two exposures, an updated kitchen, a long gallery wall, two split bedrooms, a tiled bathroom, and closets throughout. The building entry is surrounded by flower beds and is adorned with a beautiful carved stone pediment. The facade is clad in red and ironspot brick highlighted by limestone sills and topped with a bright wood cornice. This classically designed and well-kept co-op was built in 1910 and fully renovated in 2008 and features updated common areas, voice intercom, and an onsite windowed laundry room. The 1 train is under 350 feet of the front door and the A, B,C, and D trains are just blocks away making this home convenient to all of Manhattan and a quick commute to Midtown as well as City College, New York Presbyterian Hospital, and Columbia University. This location is perfect for an active lifestyle as there are miles of running paths along the Hudson, Riverbank State Park is just one block away, and St. Nicholas Park and Morningside Park are also nearby. The Fairway Market is 5 blocks South and new galleries, restaurants, and cafes are quickly making this one the most desirable neighborhoods in Manhattan.
