Description
Nestled on charming Seminary Row, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence offers a perfect blend of prewar character, abundant natural light, and open views of picturesque Morningside Heights. The expansive living room, with south and east exposures, showcases large corner bay windows framed in classic wainscotting, high ceilings, and ample room for a dining area. The open kitchen is appointed with timeless white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, barstool seating, and a washing machine. The thoughtful split bedroom layout ensures privacy, with each bedroom positioned at opposite ends of the apartment. The primary includes a generous closet with custom built-ins, while the second bedroom is quietly tucked away, doubling as a study or nursery. The windowed bath is designed with mosaic tiled floors, a tub, and cleverly positioned wall cutouts for extra storage. Additional highlights of this three flight walk-up include low maintenance, rich hardwood floors, and exposed brick walls, enhancing the apartment’s warm, inviting feel. 501 West 122nd Street is a well-maintained boutique cooperative with a full-time superintendent. With board approval, the building allows guarantors and co-purchases. Pets are welcome. Easy access to the 1/A/C/B/D trains, multiple bus lines, CitiBike, and the campuses of Columbia, Barnard, Teachers College, Bank Street, Manhattan School of Music, and both Union & Jewish Theological Seminaries. Enjoy several green spaces with Morningside and Riverside Parks nearby, as well as a range of dining and grocery options including Columbia’s Greenmarket & the newly opened Trader Joe’s on 125th.
