Property Details
Description
Bring your contractor, architect, and imagination!
Located on the 5th floor of a well maintained HDFC co-op with elevator, this apartment sprawls approximately 1100sf. Currently configured as a 4 bedroom 1 bath (plumbing exists for an additional ½ bath) and boasting pre-war charm, the unit's 9?7? ceilings soar. Exposures both South and East offer golden afternoon light and open sky views of City College. Back bedrooms face interior and are pin drop quiet. The front of the apartment is currently configured with two large bedrooms and a 20?9?x15? great room, but can be remodeled in many variations to live and entertain. There is already a hookup for a w/d in the large, windowed eat-in kitchen.
Hamilton Heights is one of the quickest growing neighborhoods with most blocks being landmarked, offering a feeling of old New York. Wonderful neighborhood restaurants like The Grange, Oso, Fumo and Clove are all within two blocks. The 1 train at 137th Street and Broadway and the A, B, C, D trains at 145th Street and St Nicholas provide quick access to all of New York City.
1580 Amsterdam Avenue is pet friendly (cats and dogs are welcome with board approval) and St Nick?s dog run is close by as is its surrounding public park, spanning 13 blocks. Riverside Park is just 3 blocks away as well as Riverbank Park with a track, indoor and outdoor pools, basketball courts, amphitheater, and fitness center.
Building is maintained by a resident super and boasts elevator and bike storage on premise.
Current maintenance includes a very modest assessment of 2.5% (equal to less than $21/month) to pay for the building?s move to dual-fuel heating, providing not only lower monthly costs, but cleaner emissions. This assessment is due to expire in May, 2017.
As this building is an HDFC, income restrictions apply. No investors. Please reach out to the listing broker, Nataliya Bari at [email protected] with all questions.
For exact dimensions, please hire your own architect or engineer.
