Description

Welcome to 549 West 123rd Street, unit 15G! A charming and bright corner dwelling in the heart of the vibrant Morningside Heights neighborhood. This post-war co-op doesn't just offer a place to live; it offers a lively and welcoming New York lifestyle. The unit itself is a gem because of the space, light and the private outdoor space. Experience the joy of calling this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home yours. Every detail in the unit, from the excellent light to the oversized windows, has been designed for your comfort and convenience. Imagine waking up to the gorgeous open views of the gardens, landmarked buildings and even a slice of Hudson city river views. With a south and west exposure, you'll enjoy excellent natural light flowing all day long. Adding to the charm of this unit is the large balcony. This private outdoor space is the perfect place to enjoy your morning cup of coffee or to relax in the evening for an alfresco dinner while enjoying the enchanting city lights. Meal preparation will be a delight in the pass-through kitchen with excellent air circulation. It features a window for extra sunlight and a dishwasher for easy clean-up. The kitchen can be expanded into what is now a designated dining area if you wish to include more counter space and cabinetry. You can also create an open kitchen by opening up the wall to the living room and creating an island. The living room is certainly large enough to incorporate a generous dining table along with a seating area creating a warm and inviting open space ideal for entertaining.

Both bedrooms are spacious with good closet space. A second bath cannot be added but with a few upgrades the current bath will seem new. There is a large laundry room in the basement (adding an in-unit W/D is not allowed). As a pet-friendly building, your furry friends are more than welcome here. You will both enjoy the extensive landscaped gardens throughout the complex allowing you to meander along the pathways or sit at a table under the shade of a large tree. Although there's no doorman, concierge or elevator attendant, the building has 24/7 security. Sorry but the building does not allow Pied-A-Terre, Guarantors or Co-Purchasing as this home must be your primary residence. Gifting is allowed.

The complex gardens and community spaces have recently undergone a large renovation. Residents enjoy a wide variety of amenities including a state-of-the-art gym, children's indoor playrooms, outdoor playground and daycare, "Tweens" activity room with a pool table, air hockey and table-tennis. The community is quite active organizing clubs, workshops, ceramic's, yoga, woodworking, photography, computer, theater, music and more. You can access meeting rooms, storage, and a parking garage.

The location is ideal and everything you need is just steps away. Nearby recreation includes NYC Parks tennis courts, playgrounds, bicycle paths and three major parks: Morningside Park, Sakura Park and Riverside Park. Morningside Gardens is near many academic institutions including: Columbia University, Barnard, Manhattan School of Music, Union Theological Seminary and the Jewish Theological Seminary. The recent nearby Columbia Expansion public offerings include a rock -climbing wall, a food hall and The Wallach Art gallery. You will also be near the Manhattanville Factory District including the Taystee lab building. Enjoy quick and easy access to numerous restaurants, shops, cultural attractions, and public transportation options. The energy of this neighborhood is palpable and is one of the reasons locals love calling this area home. Don't miss the chance to create lifetime memories in this beautiful home filled with potential. Get in touch today to schedule a visit and experience the promises of this inviting space for yourself!
