Property Details
Description
Low, low maintenance! Prewar elevator building! Easily convertible to a 2-bedroom home! This beautiful, airy residence boasts 9'-7" ceilings, new windows, a fireplace, an updated windowed bathroom, a formal dining room that can easily convert into a 2nd bedroom, and an updated windowed kitchen with an inviting breakfast bar!
Located in a well-run cooperative in the coveted Audubon Park Historic District of Washington Heights, this quiet home flaunts elegant prewar details such as wainscoting and crown and baseboard moldings, all adding to its abundant charm!
Constructed in the early 1900's, 611 West 156th Street is an elevator-serviced co-op with gorgeous masonry, beautiful marble lobby, and a large, modernized laundry room! Permitted: in-unit washer/dryer, pets, and up to 90% financing. This is an HDFC building, so the home must be a primary residence, and purchaser's total annual income cannot exceed $78,708.
Transportation is a breeze with the 1 train right on the corner, the A & C trains just three blocks away (commute to Columbus Circle in 20 minutes!), and the Bx6, Bx6-SBS, M4, and M5 buses all within a block!
Sandwiched between Columbia University's Manhattanville campus to the south and NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center to the north, the neighborhood offers a myriad of mom-and-pop stores, trendy cafes and restaurants, farmers markets, new supermarkets fully stocked with whole foods and organic produce, museums, green spaces, and so much more!
Stroll two blocks west to reach the Hudson River Greenway (perfect for jogging, strolling, or cycling along the river) and Riverside Park, which stretches four miles from 72nd Street to 158th Street! You are also right by Riverbank State Park, one of New York's best kept secrets!
Lin-Manuel Miranda was shaped into an internationally acclaimed artist by the vibrancy, beauty, and rich cultural landscape of life "In the Heights," and now you too can enjoy one of Manhattan's most rapidly appreciating enclaves!
